< Ezekiel 47 >

1 And he brought back me to [the] entrance of the house and there! waters [were] going out from under [the] threshold of the house east-ward for [the] face of the house [was] east and the waters [were] going down from under from [the] side of the house south from [the] south of the altar.
And he brought me back unto the door of the house; and, behold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house eastward, for the forefront of the house looked toward the east; and the waters came down from under, from the right side of the house, on the south of the altar.
2 And he brought out me [the] way of [the] gate north-ward and he brought round me [the] way of [the] outside to [the] gate of the outside [the] way which faces east and there! waters [were] trickling from the side south.
Then brought he me out by the way of the gate northward, and led me round by the way without unto the outer gate, by the way of the gate that looketh toward the east; and, behold, there trickled forth waters on the right side.
3 When went out the man east and a measuring-line [was] in hand his and he measured out a thousand by the cubit and he made pass me in the waters waters of ankles.
When the man went forth eastward with the line in his hand, he measured a thousand cubits, and he caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the ankles.
4 And he measured out a thousand [cubits] and he made pass me in the waters waters knees and he measured out a thousand [cubits] and he made pass through me waters of loins.
Again he measured a thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the knees. Again he measured a thousand, and caused me to pass through waters that were to the loins.
5 And he measured out a thousand [cubits] a river which not I was able to pass through for they had risen the waters waters of swimming a river which not it was passed through.
Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass through; for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed through.
6 And he said to me ¿ do you see O son of humankind and he led me and he brought back me [the] bank of the river.
And he said unto me: 'Hast thou seen this, O son of man?' Then he led me, and caused me to return to the bank of the river.
7 When had returned I and there! [was] to [the] bank of the river tree[s] many very from this and from this.
Now when I had been brought back, behold, upon the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.
8 And he said to me the waters these [are] going out to the territory eastern and they will go down to the Arabah and they will go the sea towards to the sea those [which] were brought out (and they will be healed *Q(k)*) the waters.
Then said he unto me: 'These waters issue forth toward the eastern region, and shall go down into the Arabah; and when they shall enter into the sea, into the sea of the putrid waters, the waters shall be healed.
9 And it will be every creature living - which it swarms to every where it will go there two rivers it will live and it will be the fish many very for they have gone there towards the waters these so they may be healed and it will live every where it will go there towards the river.
And it shall come to pass, that every living creature wherewith it swarmeth, whithersoever the rivers shall come, shall live; and there shall be a very great multitude of fish; for these waters are come thither, that all things be healed and may live whithersoever the river cometh.
10 And it will be (they have stood *Q(K)*) at it fishermen from En Gedi and to En-eglaim a spreading place for nets they will be to kind its it will be fish their like [the] fish of the sea great many very.
And it shall come to pass, that fishers shall stand by it from En-gedi even unto En-eglaim; there shall be a place for the spreading of nets; their fish shall be after their kinds, as the fish of the Great Sea, exceeding many.
11 (Swamps its *Q(K)*) and marshes its and not they will be healed to salt they will be given.
But the miry places thereof, and the marshes thereof, shall not be healed; they shall be given for salt.
12 And at the river it will grow up on bank its from this - and from this - every tree of food not it will wither leafage its and not it will be finished fruit its to months its it will bear early fruit for waters its from the sanctuary they [are] coming out (and it will be *Q(K)*) fruit its for food and leafage its [will be] for healing.
And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow every tree for food, whose leaf shall not wither, neither shall the fruit thereof fail; it shall bring forth new fruit every month, because the waters thereof issue out of the sanctuary; and the fruit thereof shall be for food, and the leaf thereof for healing.'
13 Thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh this [is the] boundary which you will give as possession the land to two [plus] ten [the] tribes of Israel Joseph measured portions.
Thus saith the Lord GOD: 'This shall be the border, whereby ye shall divide the land for inheritance according to the twelve tribes of Israel, Joseph receiving two portions.
14 And you will divide as possession it each like brother his which I lifted up hand my to give it to ancestors your and it will fall the land this to you an inheritance.
And ye shall inherit it, one as well as another, concerning which I lifted up My hand to give it unto your fathers; and this land shall fall unto you for inheritance.
15 And this [is] [the] boundary of the land to [the] side of north-ward from the sea great the direction of Hethlon Lebo Zedad towards.
And this shall be the border of the land: on the north side, from the Great Sea, by the way of Hethlon, unto the entrance of Zedad;
16 Hamath - Berothah Sibraim which [is] between [the] territory of Damascus and between [the] territory of Hamath Hazer-hattikon which [is] to [the] border of Hauran.
Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazer-hatticon, which is by the border of Hauran.
17 And it will be [the] boundary from the sea Hazar Enan [the] border of Damascus and north - north-ward and [the] territory of Hamath and [the] side of [the] north.
And the border from the sea shall be Hazar-enon at the border of Damascus, and on the north northward is the border of Hamath. This is the north side.
18 And [will be the] side of [the] east from between Hauran and from between Damascus and from between Gilead and from between [the] land of Israel the Jordan from [the] border to the sea eastern Tamar and [the] side east-ward.
And the east side, between Hauran and Damascus and Gilead, and the land of Israel, by the Jordan, from the border unto the east sea shall ye measure. This is the east side.
19 And [the] side of [the] south south-ward [will be] from Tamar to [the] waters of Meribath Kadesh [the] wadi to the sea great and [the] side of south-ward south-ward.
And the south side southward shall be from Tamar as far as the waters of Meriboth-kadesh, to the Brook, unto the Great Sea. This is the south side southward.
20 And [the] side of [the] west [is] the sea great from [the] border to opposite Lebo Hamath this [is the] side of [the] west.
And the west side shall be the Great Sea, from the border as far as over against the entrance of Hamath. This is the west side.
21 And you will divide the land this for yourselves to [the] tribes of Israel.
So shall ye divide this land unto you according to the tribes of Israel.
22 And it will be you will make fall it an inheritance for yourselves and for the sojourners who sojourn in midst of you who they have fathered children in midst of you and they will be to you like [the] native-born among [the] people of Israel with you they will fall an inheritance in among [the] tribes of Israel.
And it shall come to pass, that ye shall divide it by lot for an inheritance unto you and to the strangers that sojourn among you, who shall beget children among you; and they shall be unto you as the home-born among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.
23 And it will be in the tribe which he has sojourned the sojourner with it there you will give [him] inheritance his [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh.
And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger sojourneth, there shall ye give him his inheritance, saith the Lord GOD.
