NET Bible
"The grazing lands around the towns that you will give to the Levites must extend to a distance of 500 yards from the town wall."
— Numbers 35:4, NET Bible
“And the suburbs of the cities, which ye shall give unto the Levites, shall reach from the wall of the city and outward a thousand cubits round about.”
“And the suburbs of the cities, which ye shall give unto the Levites, shall be from the wall of the city and outward a thousand cubits round about. ”
“"The suburbs of the cities, which you shall give to the Levites, shall be from the wall of the city and outward one thousand cubits around it.”
“Which suburbs shall reach from the walls of the cities outward, a thousand paces on every side:”
“Stretching from the wall of the towns a distance of a thousand cubits all round.”
“And the suburbs of the cities, which ye shall give unto the Levites, shall reach from the wall of the city and outward a thousand cubits round about.”
The Levitical Cities Then the LORD spoke to Moses in the rift valley plains of Moab along the Jordan near Jericho. He said:
“Instruct the Israelites to give the Levites towns to live in from the inheritance the Israelites will possess. You must also give the Levites grazing land around the towns.
Thus they will have towns in which to live, and their grazing lands will be for their cattle, for their possessions, and for all their animals.
The grazing lands around the towns that you will give to the Levites must extend to a distance of 500 yards from the town wall.
“You must measure from outside the wall of the town on the east 1,000 yards, and on the south side 1,000 yards, and on the west side 1,000 yards, and on the north side 1,000 yards, with the town in the middle. This territory must belong to them as grazing land for the towns.
Now from these towns that you will give to the Levites you must select six towns of refuge to which a person who has killed someone may flee. And you must give them forty-two other towns.
“So the total of the towns you will give the Levites is forty-eight. You must give these together with their grazing lands.
