Numbers 35:4-8 Good News Bible (GNB)

4. The pasture land is to extend outwards from the city walls 450 metres in each direction,

5. so that there is a square area measuring 900 metres on each side, with the city in the middle.

6. You are to give the Levites six cities of refuge to which a man can escape if he kills someone accidentally. In addition, give them 42 other cities

7. with their pasture land, making a total of 48.

8. The number of Levite cities in each tribe is to be determined according to the size of its territory.”
