And ye shall measure without the city of the East side, [a]two thousand cubits: and of the South side, two thousand cubits: and of the West side, two thousand cubits: and of the North side, two thousand cubits: and the city shall be in the midst: this shall be the measure of the suburbs of their cities.

And of the cities which ye shall give unto the Levites, (A)there shall be six cities for refuge, which ye shall appoint, that he which killeth, may flee thither: and to them ye shall add two and forty cities more.

All the cities which ye shall give to the Levites, shall be eight and forty cities: them shall ye give with their suburbs.
