Young's Literal Translation
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.
And
he
causeth
me to turn
back
unto
the opening
of the house;
and lo,
water is
coming
forth
from under the threshold of the house
eastward,
for the front
of
the house
`is'
eastward,
and
the
water is
coming down from beneath,
from
the right
side of the house
, from
the
south of the altar.
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.
And
he causeth
me to
go
out the way
of
the
gate northward,
and causeth
me to turn
round
the way
without,
unto
the
gate that
`is'
without
, the way
that
is
looking
eastward,
and
lo,
water is
coming
forth
from the right
side.
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.
In
the going
out
of
the
man eastward ,
and
a line in his hand, then
he measureth
a thousand by
the
cubit,
and he
causeth
me to
pass
over
into
water
- -
water to
the
ankles
.
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.
And
he measureth
a thousand ,
and causeth
me to
pass
over
into
water
- -
water to
the
knees
. And
he measureth
a thousand ,
and causeth
me to
pass
over
- -
water to
the
loins
.
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
.
And
he measureth
a thousand --
a stream
that I am
not able
to
pass
over;
for risen
have
the
waters
--
waters
to
swim
in
--
a stream
that is
not passed
over
.
“
Son of man ,
do
you
see
this
? ”
he
asked.
Then
he led
me back to
the bank
of the river
.
And
he
saith
unto
me,
`Hast
thou
seen,
son of man? '
and
he leadeth
me ,
and
bringeth
me
back unto
the edge
of the stream
.
When
I
arrived
, I
saw
a
great
number
of
trees
along
both
banks
of the river
.
In
my
turning
back
, then,
lo,
at
the
edge
of the stream
`are'
very
many
trees,
on
this
side
and
on
that
side
.
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
.
And he saith
unto
me, `These
waters
are
going
forth
unto
the east
circuit,
and have
gone
down unto
the desert,
and
have
entered
the sea ;
unto
the
sea
they
are
brought
forth
, and
the waters
have
been
healed
.
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
.
And
it
hath
come
to
pass
, every
living creature
that
teemeth,
whithersoever
the
streams
come,
doth
live:
and there
hath
been
great abundance
of fish, for
these
waters have
come
thither,
and
they
are
healed
; and
every
thing
whither
the stream
cometh
hath
lived
.
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.
And
it
hath
come
to
pass,
fishers
do
stand by it,
from En-Gedi even
unto
En-Eglaim ;
a
spreading
place
of
nets they
are;
according
to their
own
kind
is
their
fish, as
the fish of the great sea ,
very
many
.
But
the
swamps
and marshes
will
not become
fresh
; they
will
be
left
for
salt.
Its
miry
and its
marshy
places
--
they
are
not healed
; to
salt they
have
been
given
up
.
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
. ”
And
by
the stream
there
cometh
up
on
its
edge
, on
this
side
and
on
that
side,
every
`kind
of '
fruit-tree
whose
leaf
fadeth
not, and not consumed
is
its
fruit, according
to
its
months
it
yieldeth
first-fruits,
because its
waters
from the sanctuary are
coming
forth;
and
its
fruits
hath
been
for food ,
and its
leaf
for medicine
.
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.
`Thus
said
the Lord Jehovah
: This
`is'
the border
whereby
ye
inherit
the land ,
according
to
the twelve tribes of Israel; Joseph `hath'
portions.
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.
And
ye
have
inherited
it ,
one
as
well
as
another,
in
that
I have
lifted
up
My
hand to give it to your fathers;
and
this land hath
fallen
to you in
inheritance.
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 ,
`And
this `is'
the border
of the land at
the north quarter;
from the great sea ,
the
way of Hethlon ,
at
the
coming
in
to Zedad :
Berothah, and
Sibraim (which
is on
the border between
Damascus and Hamath ),
as
far
as
Hazer
-hatticon, which
is on
the border
of Hauran
.
Hamath,
Berothah, Sibraim ,
that
`
is '
between
the border of
Damascus and the
border
of
Hamath ;
Hazar
-Hatticon, that
`
is '
at
the coast
of Havran
.
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
.
And
the border from the sea hath
been
Hazar-Enan, the border of Damascus, and
Zaphon
at
the north,
and
the
border
of Hamath :
and
`
this is'
the north
quarter
.
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
.
`And
the east quarter
`is'
from
between Havran,
and Damascus, and
Gilead ,
and the land of Israel, `
to '
the Jordan;
from
the
border
over-against
the
eastern sea ye
measure:
and `
this is'
the east
quarter
.
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
.
`And
the south quarter
southward
`is'
from Tamar unto
the waters of Meriboth
-Kadesh, the stream
unto
the great sea :
and
`
this is'
the south
quarter
southward
.
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
.
`
And the west quarter
`is'
the great sea ,
from
the border
till
over
- against
the
coming
in
to
Hamath :
this `is'
the west
quarter
.
You
are
to
divide
this land among
yourselves
according to the tribes of Israel .
`And
ye
have
divided
this land to
you,
according to the tribes of Israel ;
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.
and
it hath
come
to
pass,
ye
separate
it
for
an inheritance to
yourselves ,
and to
the sojourners
who are
sojourning
in
your
midst,
who have begotten
sons
in
your
midst,
and
they
have
been
to you
as native ,
with the
sons
of
Israel
, with
you
they are
separated
for
an inheritance in
the midst
of
the
tribes of Israel.
In whatever
tribe a
foreigner
dwells
, you
are
to
assign
his inheritance there,”
declares
the Lord GOD
.
And
it
hath
come
to
pass,
in the
tribe with
which
the
sojourner
sojourneth
, there
ye
give
his inheritance --
an
affirmation
of
the Lord Jehovah
.
