1. And the Lord spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying:
2. Command the children of Israel, and they will give to the Levites of the inheritance of their possession cities to dwell in, and you will give the Levites pasturelands around the city.
3. The cities will be for them to dwell in, and their pasturelands will be for their livestock, and for their property, and for all their animals.
