Ezekiel 47 (WEBP)

[1] He brought me back to the door of the temple; and behold, waters flowed out from under the threshold of the temple eastward, for the front of the temple faced toward the east. The waters came down from underneath, from the right side of the temple, on the south of the altar.
[2] Then he brought me out by the way of the gate northward, and led me around by the way outside to the outer gate, by the way of the gate that looks toward the east. Behold, waters ran out on the right side.
[3] When the man went out eastward with the line in his hand, he measured one thousand cubits, and he caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the ankles.
[4] Again he measured one thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the knees. Again he measured one thousand, and caused me to pass through waters that were to the waist.
[5] Afterward he measured one thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass through, for the waters had risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be walked through.
[6] He said to me, “Son of man, have you seen this?” Then he brought me and caused me to return to the bank of the river.
[7] Now when I had returned, behold, on the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.
[8] Then he said to me, “These waters flow out toward the eastern region and will go down into the Arabah. Then they will go toward the sea and flow into the sea which will be made to flow out; and the waters will be healed.
[9] It will happen that every living creature which swarms, in every place where the rivers come, will live. Then there will be a very great multitude of fish; for these waters have come there, and the waters of the sea will be healed, and everything will live wherever the river comes.
[10] It will happen that fishermen will stand by it. From En Gedi even to En Eglaim will be a place for the spreading of nets. Their fish will be after their kinds, as the fish of the great sea, exceedingly many.
[11] But its swamps marshes will not be healed. They will be given up to salt.
[12] By the river banks, on both sides, will grow every tree for food, whose leaf won’t wither, neither will its fruit fail. It will produce new fruit every month, because its waters issue out of the sanctuary. Its fruit will be for food, and its leaf for healing.”
[13] The Lord Yahweh says: “This shall be the border by which you shall divide the land for inheritance according to the twelve tribes of Israel. Joseph shall have two portions.
[14] You shall inherit it, one as well as another; for I swore to give it to your fathers. This land will fall to you for inheritance.
[15] “This shall be the border of the land: “On the north side, from the great sea, by the way of Hethlon, to the entrance of Zedad;
[16] Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim (which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath), to Hazer Hatticon, which is by the border of Hauran.
[17] 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] “The east side, between Hauran, Damascus, Gilead, and the land of Israel, shall be the Jordan; from the north border to the east sea you shall measure. This is the east side.
[19] “The south side southward shall be from Tamar as far as the waters of Meriboth Kadesh, to the brook, to the great sea. This is the south side southward.
[20] “The west side shall be the great sea, from the south border as far as opposite the entrance of Hamath. This is the west side.
[21] “So you shall divide this land to yourselves according to the tribes of Israel.
[22] You shall divide it by lot for an inheritance to you and to the aliens who live among you, who will father children among you. Then they shall be to you as the native-born among the children of Israel. They shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.
[23] In whatever tribe the stranger lives, there you shall give him his inheritance,” says the Lord Yahweh.

Ezekiel 47 (KJVS)

[1] Afterward he brought me again () 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 [stood toward] the east, and the waters came down () from under from the right side of the house, at the south [side] of the altar.
[2] Then brought he me out () of the way of the gate northward, and led me about () the way without unto the utter gate by the way that looketh () eastward; and, behold, there ran out () waters on the right side.
[3] And when the man that had the line in his hand went forth () eastward, he measured () a thousand cubits, and he brought me through () the waters; the waters [were] to the ankles.
[4] Again he measured () a thousand, and brought me through () the waters; the waters [were] to the knees. Again he measured () a thousand, and brought me through; () the waters [were] to the loins.
[5] Afterward he measured () a thousand; [and it was] a river that I could () not pass over: () for the waters were risen, () waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed over. ()
[6] And he said () unto me, Son of man, hast thou seen () [this]? Then he brought () me, and caused me to return () to the brink of the river.
[7] Now when I had returned, () behold, at the bank of the river [were] very many trees on the one side and on the other.
[8] Then said () he unto me, These waters issue out () toward the east country, and go down () into the desert, and go () into the sea: [which being] brought forth () into the sea, the waters shall be healed. ()
[9] And it shall come to pass, [that] every thing that liveth, which moveth, () whithersoever the rivers shall come, () shall live: () and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come () thither: for they shall be healed; () and every thing shall live () whither the river cometh. ()
[10] And it shall come to pass, [that] the fishers shall stand () () () upon it from Engedi even unto Eneglaim; they shall be a [place] to spread forth nets; their fish shall be according to their kinds, as the fish of the great sea, exceeding many.
[11] But the miry places thereof and the marishes thereof shall not be healed; () they shall be given () to salt.
[12] And by the river upon the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow () all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, () neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: () it shall bring forth new fruit () according to his months, because their waters they issued out () of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.
[13] Thus saith () the Lord God; This [shall be] the border, whereby ye shall inherit () the land according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph [shall have two] portions.
[14] And ye shall inherit () it, one as well as another: [concerning] the which I lifted up () mine hand to give () it unto your fathers: and this land shall fall () unto you for inheritance.
[15] And this [shall be] the border of the land toward the north side, from the great sea, the way of Hethlon, as men go () to Zedad;
[16] Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which [is] between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazarhatticon, which [is] by the coast of Hauran.
[17] And the border from the sea shall be Hazarenan, the border of Damascus, and the north northward, and the border of Hamath. And [this is] the north side.
[18] And the east side ye shall measure () from Hauran, and from Damascus, and from Gilead, and from the land of Israel [by] Jordan, from the border unto the east sea. And [this is] the east side.
[19] And the south side southward, from Tamar [even] to the waters of strife () [in] Kadesh, the river to the great sea. And [this is] the south side southward.
[20] The west side also [shall be] the great sea from the border, till a man come () over against Hamath. This [is] the west side.
[21] So shall ye divide () this land unto you according to the tribes of Israel.
[22] 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, which shall beget () children among you: and they shall be unto you as born in the country among the children of Israel; they shall have () inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.
[23] And it shall come to pass, [that] in what tribe the stranger sojourneth, () there shall ye give () [him] his inheritance, saith () the Lord God.

[1] και εισηγαγεν με επι τα προθυρα του οικου και ιδου υδωρ εξεπορευετο υποκατωθεν του αιθριου κατ ανατολας οτι το προσωπον του οικου εβλεπεν κατ ανατολας και το υδωρ κατεβαινεν απο του κλιτους του δεξιου απο νοτου επι το θυσιαστηριον
[2] και εξηγαγεν με κατα την οδον της πυλης της προς βορραν και περιηγαγεν με την οδον εξωθεν προς την πυλην της αυλης της βλεπουσης κατ ανατολας και ιδου το υδωρ κατεφερετο απο του κλιτους του δεξιου
[3] καθως εξοδος ανδρος εξ εναντιας και μετρον εν τη χειρι αυτου και διεμετρησεν χιλιους εν τω μετρω και διηλθεν εν τω υδατι υδωρ αφεσεως
[4] και διεμετρησεν χιλιους και διηλθεν εν τω υδατι υδωρ εως των μηρων και διεμετρησεν χιλιους και διηλθεν υδωρ εως οσφυος
[5] και διεμετρησεν χιλιους και ουκ ηδυνατο διελθειν οτι εξυβριζεν το υδωρ ως ροιζος χειμαρρου ον ου διαβησονται
[6] και ειπεν προς με ει εωρακας υιε ανθρωπου και ηγαγεν με επι το χειλος του ποταμου
[7] εν τη επιστροφη μου και ιδου επι του χειλους του ποταμου δενδρα πολλα σφοδρα ενθεν και ενθεν
[8] και ειπεν προς με το υδωρ τουτο το εκπορευομενον εις την γαλιλαιαν την προς ανατολας και κατεβαινεν επι την αραβιαν και ηρχετο εως επι την θαλασσαν επι το υδωρ της διεκβολης και υγιασει τα υδατα
[9] και εσται πασα ψυχη των ζωων των εκζεοντων επι παντα εφ α αν επελθη εκει ο ποταμος ζησεται και εσται εκει ιχθυς πολυς σφοδρα οτι ηκει εκει το υδωρ τουτο και υγιασει και ζησεται παν εφ ο αν επελθη ο ποταμος εκει ζησεται
[10] και στησονται εκει αλεεις απο αινγαδιν εως αιναγαλιμ ψυγμος σαγηνων εσται καθ αυτην εσται και οι ιχθυες αυτης ως οι ιχθυες της θαλασσης της μεγαλης πληθος πολυ σφοδρα
[11] και εν τη διεκβολη αυτου και εν τη επιστροφη αυτου και εν τη υπεραρσει αυτου ου μη υγιασωσιν εις αλας δεδονται
[12] και επι του ποταμου αναβησεται επι του χειλους αυτου ενθεν και ενθεν παν ξυλον βρωσιμον ου μη παλαιωθη επ αυτου ουδε μη εκλιπη ο καρπος αυτου της καινοτητος αυτου πρωτοβολησει διοτι τα υδατα αυτων εκ των αγιων ταυτα εκπορευεται και εσται ο καρπος αυτων εις βρωσιν και αναβασις αυτων εις υγιειαν
