Ezekiel 47
1 Then the man brought me back to the entrance of the temple, and I saw water flowing from under the threshold of the temple toward the east (for the temple faced east). The water was coming down from under the south side of the temple, south of the altar.
他带我回到殿门，见殿的门槛下有水往东流出（原来殿面朝东）。这水从槛下，由殿的右边，在祭坛的南边往下流。
2 Next he brought me out through the north gate and led me around the outside to the outer gate facing east, and there I saw the water trickling out from the south side.
他带我出北门，又领我从外边转到朝东的外门，见水从右边流出。
3 As the man went eastward with a measuring line in his hand, he measured off a thousand cubits and led me through ankle-deep water.
他手拿准绳往东出去的时候，量了一千肘，使我趟过水，水到踝子骨。
4 Then he measured off a thousand cubits and led me through knee-deep water. Again he measured a thousand cubits and led me through waist-deep water.
他又量了一千肘，使我趟过水，水就到膝；再量了一千肘，使我趟过水，水便到腰；
5 Once again he measured off a thousand cubits, but now it was a river that I could not cross, because the water had risen and was deep enough for swimming—a river that could not be crossed on foot.
又量了一千肘，水便成了河，使我不能趟过。因为水势涨起，成为可洑的水，不可趟的河。
6 “Son of man, do you see this?” he asked. Then he led me back to the bank of the river.
他对我说：“人子啊，你看见了什么？” 他就带我回到河边。
7 When I arrived, I saw a great number of trees along both banks of the river.
我回到河边的时候，见在河这边与那边的岸上有极多的树木。
8 And he said to me, “This water flows out to the eastern region and goes down into the Arabah. When it empties into the Sea, the water there becomes fresh.
他对我说：“这水往东方流去，必下到亚拉巴，直到海。所发出来的水必流入盐海，使水变甜。
9 Wherever the river flows, there will be swarms of living creatures and a great number of fish, because it flows there and makes the waters fresh; so wherever the river flows, everything will flourish.
这河水所到之处，凡滋生的动物都必生活，并且因这流来的水必有极多的鱼，海水也变甜了。这河水所到之处，百物都必生活。
10 Fishermen will stand by the shore; from En-gedi to En-eglaim they will spread their nets to catch fish of many kinds, like the fish of the Great Sea.
必有渔夫站在河边，从隐·基底直到隐·以革莲，都作晒网之处。那鱼各从其类，好像大海的鱼甚多。
11 But the swamps and marshes will not become fresh; they will be left for salt.
只是泥泞之地与洼湿之处不得治好，必为盐地。
12 Along both banks of the river, fruit trees of all kinds will grow. Their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. Each month they will bear fruit, because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will be used for food and their leaves for healing.”
在河这边与那边的岸上必生长各类的树木；其果可作食物，叶子不枯干，果子不断绝。每月必结新果子，因为这水是从圣所流出来的。树上的果子必作食物，叶子乃为治病。”
13 This is what the Lord GOD says: “These are the boundaries by which you are to divide the land as an inheritance among the twelve tribes of Israel; Joseph shall receive two portions.
主耶和华如此说：“你们要照地的境界，按以色列十二支派分地为业。约瑟必得两分。
14 You are to divide it equally among them. Because I swore with an uplifted hand to give it to your forefathers, this land will fall to you as an inheritance.
你们承受这地为业，要彼此均分；因为我曾起誓应许将这地赐与你们的列祖；这地必归你们为业。
15 This shall be the boundary of the land: On the north side it will extend from the Great Sea by way of Hethlon through Lebo-hamath to Zedad,
“地的四界乃是如此：北界从大海往希特伦，直到西达达口。
16 Berothah, and Sibraim (which is on the border between Damascus and Hamath), as far as Hazer-hatticon, which is on the border of Hauran.
又往哈马、比罗他、西伯莲（西伯莲在大马士革与哈马两界中间），到浩兰边界的哈撒·哈提干。
17 So the border will run from the Sea to Hazar-enan, along the northern border of Damascus, with the territory of Hamath to the north. This will be the northern boundary.
这样，境界从海边往大马士革地界上的哈萨·以难，北边以哈马地为界。这是北界。
18 On the east side the border will run between Hauran and Damascus, along the Jordan between Gilead and the land of Israel, to the Eastern Sea and as far as Tamar. This will be the eastern boundary.
“东界在浩兰、大马士革、基列，和以色列地的中间，就是约旦河。你们要从北界量到东海。这是东界。
19 On the south side it will run from Tamar to the waters of Meribath-kadesh, and along the Brook of Egypt to the Great Sea. This will be the southern boundary.
“南界是从他玛到米利巴·加低斯的水，延到埃及小河，直到大海。这是南界。
20 And on the west side, the Great Sea will be the boundary up to a point opposite Lebo-hamath. This will be the western boundary.
“西界就是大海，从南界直到哈马口对面之地。这是西界。
21 You are to divide this land among yourselves according to the tribes of Israel.
“你们要按着以色列的支派彼此分这地。
22 You shall allot it as an inheritance for yourselves and for the foreigners who dwell among you and who have children. You are to treat them as native-born Israelites; along with you, they shall be allotted an inheritance among the tribes of Israel.
要拈阄分这地为业，归与自己和你们中间寄居的外人，就是在你们中间生养儿女的外人。你们要看他们如同以色列人中所生的一样；他们在以色列支派中要与你们同得地业。
23 In whatever tribe a foreigner dwells, you are to assign his inheritance there,” declares the Lord GOD.
外人寄居在哪支派中，你们就在那里分给他地业。这是主耶和华说的。”
