Ezekiel 48:25-35

25 Along the boundary of Simeon from the eastern border to the western border: Issachar, one portion.
26 Along the boundary of Issachar from the eastern border to the western border: Zebulon, one portion.
27 Along the boundary of Zebulon from the eastern border to the western border: Gad, one portion.
28 Along the boundary of Gad to the southern border, the boundary will run from Tamar to the waters of Meribath-kadesh and from there to the border of Egypt and to the Mediterranean Sea.
29 This is the land that you will distribute as an inheritance for the tribes of Israel. These are their portions. This is what the LORD God says.
30 These are the city exits. The north side is measured at 1.28 miles.
31 The gates of the city go by the names of the tribes of Israel. There are three gates on the north side: one gate for Reuben, one gate for Judah, and one gate for Levi.
32 There are three gates on the east side along its 1.28 miles: one gate for Joseph, one gate for Benjamin, and one gate for Dan.
33 There are three gates on the south side measuring 1.28 miles: one gate for Simeon, one gate for Issachar, and one gate for Zebulon.
34 There are three gates on the west side along its 1.28 miles: one gate for Gad, one gate for Asher, and one gate for Naphtali.
35 The circumference of the city is 5.1 miles. As of today, the name of the city is The LORD Is There.
