Numbers 35:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ You must also measure 1,000 metres outside the town on each side, the east side, the south side, the west side and the north side. So the town will be in the centre. Those fields of grass will belong to them for each of their towns.

The safe cities

⁶ Six of the Levites' towns must be safe places. If anyone kills another person, he can run there to be safe. The Levites must also have another 42 towns. ⁷ In that way, the Levites will have 48 towns and land for their animals.
