He
brought me back to the door
of the house;
and,
behold
, waters
issued
out
from under the threshold of the house
eastward;
(for the forefront
of
the
house
was
toward
the
east ;
) and
the waters
came
down from under ,
from
the right
side of the house
, on
the
south 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
he brought me out by
the
way
of
the gate northward,
and led me round
by
the way
outside to the outer gate ,
by
the
way
of
[the
gate]
that
looks
toward
the
east ;
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.
When
the man went forth
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
.
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 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 [the
waters],
waters
that
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 one
thousand ;
[and
it was ]
a river that I could not pass
through;
for
the waters
were
risen ,
waters
to
swim
in,
a river that could not be passed
through
.
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
.
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.
“
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
, on
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 to me, These
waters
issue
forth
toward
the eastern region ,
and shall
go
down into the Arabah ;
and
they
shall
go
toward
the
sea;
into the sea [shall
the
waters
go]
which
were
made
to
issue
forth;
and
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
.
It
shall
happen,
that
every
living
creature
which
swarms,
in
every
place
where
the rivers
come
, shall
live;
and
there shall
be a very
great multitude
of fish ;
for
these
waters
are
come
there
, and [
the waters of
the
sea]
shall
be
healed,
and
everything
shall
live
wherever the river comes
.
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
.
It
shall
happen,
that
fishermen shall
stand by it:
from En Gedi even
to En Eglaim shall
be
a
place
for
the
spreading
of
nets;
their fish shall
be
after
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
of
it,
and the
marshes of
it,
shall
not be
healed
; they shall
be given
up
to
salt.
But the swamps
and marshes will
not become
fresh
; they will
be left
for
salt.
By
the river on
the
bank
of
it
, on
this
side
and
on
that
side,
shall
grow every
tree
for
food,
whose
leaf
shall
not wither, neither
shall
the
fruit of
it
fail :
it
shall
bring
forth
new
fruit
every
month, because the waters
of
it
issue
out
of
the sanctuary ;
and
the
fruit of
it
shall
be for food ,
and the
leaf
of
it
for healing.
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
says
the Lord Yahweh
: 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.
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.
You shall
inherit
it ,
one
as
well
as
another;
for
I swore to give it to your fathers:
and
this land shall
fall to 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.
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 ;
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 ;
Hazer Hatticon, which is by
the border 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.
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
.
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
.
The east side ,
between Hauran and Damascus and
Gilead
, and the land of Israel, shall
be
the
Jordan;
from
the
[north]
border
to the east
sea shall
you
measure
. 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
.
The south side southward
shall
be
from Tamar as
far
as
the waters of Meriboth
Kadesh, to
the brook [
of Egypt ],
to the great sea. 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 shall
be
the great sea ,
from
the
[south]
border
as
far
as
over
against
the entrance
of
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
you divide this land to
you
according to the tribes of Israel.
You are
to
divide this land among
yourselves
according to the tribes of Israel.
It
shall
happen,
that
you shall divide
it by
lot
for
an inheritance to
you
and to
the strangers
who sojourn
among you ,
who shall
father
children among
you ;
and
they
shall
be
to you
as the
home
-born 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.
It
shall
happen,
that
in what
tribe the
stranger
sojourns
, there
shall
you give
him
his inheritance, says
the Lord Yahweh
.
In whatever
tribe a
foreigner
dwells
, you are
to
assign
his inheritance there
, ”
declares
the Lord GOD
.
