Ezechiel 48:8

And by the border of Juda, from the east side even to the side of the sea, shall be the firstfruits which you shall set apart, five and twenty thousand in breadth, and in length, as every one of the portions from the east side to the side of the sea: and the sanctuary shall be in the midst thereof.

The verse in its languages

Vulgate (Clementine)
Et super terminum Juda, a plaga orientali usque ad plagam maris, erunt primitiæ quas separabitis, viginti quinque millibus latitudinis et longitudinis, sicuti singulæ partes a plaga orientali usque ad plagam maris : et erit sanctuarium in medio ejus.
Septuagint (Swete)
Καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων Ἰούδα ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς μενεῖ, ἔσται ἡ ἀπαρχὴ τοῦ ἀφορισμοῦ πέντε καὶ εἴκοσι χιλιάδες εὖρος, καὶ μῆκος καθὼς μία τῶν μερίδων ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς ἀνατολὰς καὶ ἕως τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν, καὶ ἔσται τὸ ἅγιον ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῶν·
Hebrew (WLC)
וְעַל֙ גְּב֣וּל יְהוּדָ֔ה מִפְּאַ֥ת קָדִ֖ים עַד פְּאַת יָ֑מָּה תִּהְיֶ֣ה הַתְּרוּמָ֣ה אֲֽשֶׁר תָּרִ֡ימוּ חֲמִשָּׁה֩ וְעֶשְׂרִ֨ים אֶ֜לֶף רֹ֗חַב וְאֹ֜רֶךְ כְּאַחַ֤ד הַחֲלָקִים֙ מִפְּאַ֤ת קָדִ֨ימָה֙ עַד פְּאַת יָ֔מָּה וְהָיָ֥ה הַמִּקְדָּ֖שׁ בְּתוֹכֽוֹ

Haydock's commentary

Apart, for the Levitical tribe and the prince. (Calmet)

As the first-born and things which spring first, so also the land consecrated to the Lord is called first-fruits. (Worthington)

Thousand cubits (chap. xlv. 1.) or 12,500 paces, (Haydock) allowing two cubits for each. This would not reach to the Jordan River. But thrice that space must be reckoned, the king having two of them (Calmet) on each side of the temple, namely, towards the sea, and on the other side of the Jordan. (Haydock)
