Hiezechielis Prophetæ 47
1 et convertit me ad portam domus et ecce aquae egrediebantur subter limen domus ad orientem facies enim domus respiciebat ad orientem aquae autem descendebant in latus templi dextrum ad meridiem altaris
And he brought me to the entrance of the house; and, behold, water issued from under the porch eastward, for the front of the house looked eastward; and the water came down from the right side, from the south to the altar.
2 et eduxit me per viam portae aquilonis et convertit me ad viam foras portam exteriorem viam quae respiciebat ad orientem et ecce aquae redundantes a latere dextro
And he brought me out by the way of the northern gate, and he led me round by the way outside to the gate of the court that looks eastward; and, behold, water came down from the right side,
3 cum egrederetur vir ad orientem qui habebat funiculum in manu sua et mensus est mille cubitos et transduxit me per aquam usque ad talos
in [the direction] in which a man went forth opposite; and [there was] a measuring line in his hand, and he measured a thousand [cubits] with the measure;
4 rursumque mensus est mille et transduxit me per aquam usque ad genua
and he passed through the water; [it was] water of a fountain: and [again] he measured a thousand, and passed through the water; and the water was up to the thighs: and [again] he measured a thousand; and he passed through water up to the loins.
5 et mensus est mille et transduxit me per aquam usque ad renes et mensus est mille torrentem quem non potui pertransire quoniam intumuerant aquae profundae torrentis qui non potest transvadari
and [again] he measured a thousand; and he could not pass through: for [the water] rose as of a torrent which [men] can’t pass over.
6 et dixit ad me certe vidisti fili hominis et duxit me et convertit ad ripam torrentis
And he said to me, Hast you seen [this], son of man? Then he brought me, and led me back to the brink of the river
7 cumque me convertissem ecce in ripa torrentis ligna multa nimis ex utraque parte
as I returned; and, behold, on the brink of the river [there were] very many trees on this side and on that side.
8 et ait ad me aquae istae quae egrediuntur ad tumulos sabuli orientalis et descendunt ad plana deserti intrabunt mare et exibunt et sanabuntur aquae
And he said to me, This is the water that goes forth to Galilee that lies eastward, and it is gone down to Arabia, and has reached as far as to the sea to the outlet of the water: and it shall heal the waters.
9 et omnis anima vivens quae serpit quocumque venerit torrens vivet et erunt pisces multi satis postquam venerint illuc aquae istae et sanabuntur et vivent omnia ad quae venerit torrens
And it shall come to pass, [that] every animal of living [and] moving creatures, all on which the river shall come, shall live: and there shall be there very many fish; for this water shall go there, and it shall heal [them], and they shall live: everything on which the river shall come shall live.
10 vivent et stabunt super illa piscatores ab Engaddi usque ad Engallim siccatio sagenarum erunt plurimae species erunt piscium eius sicut pisces maris magni multitudinis nimiae
And fishers shall stand there from Ingadin to Enagallim; it shall be a place to spread out nets upon; it shall be distinct; and the fishes thereof [shall be] as the fishes of the great sea, a very great multitude.
11 in litoribus autem eius et in palustribus non sanabuntur quia in salinas dabuntur
But at the outlet of the water, and the turn of it, and where it overflows [its banks], they shall not heal at all; they are given to salt.
12 et super torrentem orietur in ripis eius ex utraque parte omne lignum pomiferum non defluet folium ex eo et non deficiet fructus eius per singulos menses adferet primitiva quia aquae eius de sanctuario egredientur et erunt fructus eius in cibum et folia eius ad medicinam
And every fruit tree shall grow by the river, [even] on the bank of it on this side and on that side: they shall not decay upon it, neither shall their fruit fail: they shall bring forth the first-fruit of their early crop, for these their waters come forth of the sanctuary: and their fruit shall be for meat, and their foliage for health.
13 haec dicit Dominus Deus hic est terminus in quo possidebitis terram in duodecim tribubus Israhel quia Ioseph duplicem funiculum habet
Thus says the Lord God; You shall inherit these borders of the land; [they are] given by lot to the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
14 possidebitis autem eam singuli aeque ut frater suus quam levavi manum meam ut darem patribus vestris et cadet terra haec vobis in possessionem
And you shall inherit it, each according to his brother's portion, [even the land] concerning which I lifted up my hand to give [it] to your fathers: and this land shall fall to you by lot.
15 hic est autem terminus terrae ad plagam septentrionalem a mari magno via Bethalon venientibus Sadada
And these are the borders of the land that lies northward, from the great sea that comes down, and divides the entrance of Emaseldam;
16 Emath Berotha Sabarim quae est inter terminum Damasci et confinium Emath domus Atticon quae est iuxta terminos Auran
Maabthera, Ebrameliam, between the coasts of Damascus and the coasts of Emathi, the habitation of Saunan, which [places] are above the coasts of Auranitis.
17 et erit terminus a mari usque ad atrium Aenon terminus Damasci et ab aquilone ad aquilonem et terminus Emath plaga autem septentrionalis
These are the borders from the sea, from the habitations of Aenan, the coasts of Damascus, and the northern [coasts].
18 porro plaga orientalis de medio Auran et de medio Damasci et de medio Galaad et de medio terrae Israhel Iordanis disterminans ad mare orientale metiemini etiam plagam orientalem
And the eastern coasts between Loranitis, and Damascus, and the land of Galaad, and the land of Israel, the Jordan divides to the sea that is east of the city of palm-trees. These are the eastern [coasts].
19 plaga autem australis meridiana a Thamar usque ad aquas Contradictionis Cades et torrens usque ad mare magnum et plaga ad meridiem australis
And the southern and south-western [coasts are] from Thaeman and the city of palm-trees, to the water of Marimoth Cadem, reaching forth to the great sea. This part is the south and southwest.
20 et plaga maris mare magnum a confinio per directum donec venias Emath haec est plaga maris
This part of the great sea forms a border, till [one comes] opposite the entrance of Emath, [even] as far as the entrance thereof. These are the parts west of Emath.
21 et dividetis terram istam vobis per tribus Israhel
So you shall divide this land to them, [even] to the tribes of Israel.
22 et mittetis eam in hereditatem vobis et advenis qui accesserint ad vos qui genuerint filios in medio vestrum et erunt vobis sicut indigenae inter filios Israhel vobiscum divident possessionem in medio tribuum Israhel
You shall cast the lot upon it, for yourselves and the strangers that sojourn in the midst of you, who have begotten children in the midst of you: and they shall be to you as natives among the children of Israel; they shall eat with you in [their] inheritance in the midst of the tribes of Israel.
23 in tribu autem quacumque fuerit advena ibi dabitis possessionem illi ait Dominus Deus
And they shall be in the tribe of proselytes among the proselytes that are with them: there shall you give them an inheritance, says the Lord God.
