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.

Then the man took me back to the entrance to the temple, and there was water flowing out from under the temple threshold of the house toward the east—for the front of the temple faced east—and the water was flowing down the south side of the temple, to the right 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.

So he brought me out through the northern gate and led around to the gate facing east, and there the water was flowing from this gate on its south 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.

As the man was going toward the east, there was a measuring line in his hand; he measured off one thousand cubits and brought me through the water to ankle-deep water.

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.

Then he measured one thousand cubits again and brought me through the water to knee-deep water; and he measured another thousand cubits and brought me to hip-deep water.

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.

Next he measured off another thousand cubits, but it was a river that I could not cross through because the water had risen and was deep enough to swim in—it was a river that could not be crossed.

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.

The man said to me, “Son of man, do you see this?” and he brought me out and had me walk back along the riverbank.

7 When had returned I and there! [was] to [the] bank of the river tree[s] many very from this and from this.

As I walked back, there the riverbank had many trees on this side and also the other side.

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.

The man said to me, “This water is going out to the eastern territory and down to the Arabah; this water flows into the Salt Sea and will make it fresh.

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.

It will be that every living creature that swarms will live where the water goes; there will be many fish, for these waters flow there. It will make the salt water fresh. Everything will live wherever the river goes.

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.

Then it will happen that fishermen of En Gedi will stand by the water, and there will be a place to dry out the fishing nets by En Eglaim. There will be many kinds of fish in the Salt Sea, like the fish in the Great Sea for their abundance.

11 (Swamps its *Q(K)*) and marshes its and not they will be healed to salt they will be given.

But the Salt Sea's swamps and marshes will not be made fresh; they will be for providing 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.

Beside this river on its banks, on both sides, all kinds of trees will grow that bear food. Their leaves will not wither and their fruit will never fail to grow. Each month the trees will bear fruit, because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves will be 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.

The Lord Yahweh says this: This will be the way that you divide the land up for the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph will have 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.

You are to divide equally what I lifted up my hand and swore to give to your fathers. This land will come to you as an 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.

This will be the boundary of the land on the north side from the Great Sea by way of Hethlon, and then to 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.

Then the boundary will go to Berothah, to Sibraim, which is between Damascus and Hamath, and then to Hazer Hattikon, which is beside the boundary 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.

So the boundary will go from the sea to Hazar Enan on the border with Damascus and Hamath to the north. This will be 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.

On the east side the boundary will run between Hauran and Damascus, along the Jordan River between Gilead and the land of Israel. You will measure from the border to the eastern sea. This will be the eastern border.

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.

Then on the south side the boundary will run from Tamar as far as the waters of Meribah Kadesh, then along the brook of Egypt to the Great Sea. This will be the boundary on the south side.

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.

Then the boundary on the west side will be the Great Sea to a point opposite Lebo Hamath. This will be the west side.

21 And you will divide the land this for yourselves to [the] tribes of Israel.

In this way you will divide this land for yourselves, for 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.

So you will distribute the inheritances for yourselves and for the foreigners in your midst, those who have given birth to children in your midst and who are, with you, like the native born people of Israel. You will cast lots for inheritances 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.

Then it will happen that the foreigner will be with the tribe among whom he is living. You must give him an inheritance—this is the Lord Yahweh's declaration.”
