Ezekiel 47:21 In-Context

19 "On the south side the border will start at Tamar. It will reach all the way to the waters of Meribah Kadesh. Then it will run along the Wadi of Egypt. It will end at the Mediterranean Sea. That will be the south border.
20 "On the west side, the Mediterranean Sea will be the border. It will go to a point across from Lebo Hamath. That will be the west border.
21 "You must divide up this land among yourselves. Do it based on the number of men in your tribes.
22 Each of the tribes must receive a share of the land. "You must also give some land to the outsiders who have settled among you and who have children. Treat them as if they had been born in Israel. Let them have some land among your tribes.
23 Outsiders can settle in any tribe. There you must give them their share," announces the LORD and King.
