Berean Standard Bible
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.
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.
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.
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
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
.
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
.
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
.
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
.
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
.
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
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.
“
Son of man, do
you
see
this? ”
he
asked.
Then he led
me back
to the bank
of the river.
Now
when I had
returned,
behold
, at
the
bank
of the
river
were
very
many
trees on
the
one
side
and
on
the other
.
When I arrived
, I
saw
a
great
number
of trees along
both
banks
of
the river
.
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
.
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
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
.
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
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
.
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.
But the miry
places
thereof
and the
marishes
thereof
shall
not be
healed
; they shall
be given
to
salt.
But the swamps
and marshes
will
not become
fresh
; they will
be left
for
salt.
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
.
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
. ”
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.
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.
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.
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
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 ;
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 ,
Hamath,
Berothah, Sibraim ,
which is between
the border of
Damascus and the
border
of
Hamath ;
Hazarhatticon
, which is by
the coast
of Hauran.
Berothah, and
Sibraim (
which is on
the border between
Damascus and Hamath )
, as
far
as
Hazer-hatticon,
which is on
the border
of Hauran.
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
.
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 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
.
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 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
.
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
.
The west side also
shall
be
the great sea from
the border,
till
a man
come
over
against
Hamath. This is
the west
side
.
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
.
So
shall
ye
divide this land unto
you
according to the tribes of Israel.
You
are
to
divide this land among
yourselves
according to 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,
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.
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
shall
come
to
pass,
that
in what
tribe the
stranger
sojourneth
, there
shall
ye
give
him
his inheritance, saith
the Lord GOD.
In whatever
tribe a
foreigner
dwells
, you
are
to
assign
his inheritance there
, ”
declares
the Lord GOD.
