And the prince will have the area on each side of the holy donation of land and the city’s property, adjacent to the holy donation and the city’s property, stretching to the west on the west side and to the east on the east side.

The perimeter of the city will be six miles, and the name of the city from that day on will be: Yahweh Is There.”
