47:1 Then
he
brought
me
back
to
the
door
of
the
temple,
and
behold,
water
was
issuing
from
below
the
threshold
of
the
temple
toward
the
east
(for
the
temple
faced
east).
The
water
was
flowing
down
from
below
the
south
end
of
the
threshold
of
the
temple,
south
of
the
altar.
47:2 Then
he
brought
me
out
by
way
of
the
north
gate
and
led
me
around
on
the
outside
to
the
outer
gate
that
faces
toward
the
east;
and
behold,
the
water
was
trickling
out
on
the
south
side.
47:3 Going
on
eastward
with
a
measuring
line
in
his
hand,
the
man
measured
a
thousand
cubits,
and
then
led
me
through
the
water,
and
it
was
ankle-deep.
47:4 Again
he
measured
a
thousand,
and
led
me
through
the
water,
and
it
was
knee-deep.
Again
he
measured
a
thousand,
and
led
me
through
the
water,
and
it
was
waist-deep.
47:5 Again
he
measured
a
thousand,
and
it
was
a
river
that
I
could
not
pass
through,
for
the
water
had
risen.
It
was
deep
enough
to
swim
in,
a
river
that
could
not
be
passed
through.
47:6 And
he
said
to
me,
"Son
of
man,
have
you
seen
this"
Then
he
led
me
back
to
the
bank
of
the
river.
47:7 As
I
went
back,
I
saw
on
the
bank
of
the
river
very
many
trees
on
the
one
side
and
on
the
other.
47:8 And
he
said
to
me,
"This
water
flows
toward
the
eastern
region
and
goes
down
into
the
Arabah,
and
enters
the
sea;
when
the
water
flows
into
the
sea,
the
water
will
become
fresh.
47:9 And
wherever
the
river
goes,
every
living
creature
that
swarms
will
live,
and
there
will
be
very
many
fish.
For
this
water
goes
there,
that
the
waters
of
the
sea
may
become
fresh;
so
everything
will
live
where
the
river
goes.
47:10 Fishermen
will
stand
beside
the
sea.
From
Engedi
to
Eneglaim
it
will
be
a
place
for
the
spreading
of
nets.
Its
fish
will
be
of
very
many
kinds,
like
the
fish
of
the
Great
Sea.
47:11 But
its
swamps
and
marshes
will
not
become
fresh;
they
are
to
be
left
for
salt.
47:12 And
on
the
banks,
on
both
sides
of
the
river,
there
will
grow
all
kinds
of
trees
for
food.
Their
leaves
will
not
wither,
nor
their
fruit
fail,
but
they
will
bear
fresh
fruit
every
month,
because
the
water
for
them
flows
from
the
sanctuary.
Their
fruit
will
be
for
food,
and
their
leaves
for
healing."
47:13 Thus
says
the
Lord
GOD:
"This
is
the
boundary
by
which
you
shall
divide
the
land
for
inheritance
among
the
twelve
tribes
of
Israel.
Joseph
shall
have
two
portions.
47:14 And
you
shall
divide
equally
what
I
swore
to
give
to
your
fathers.
This
land
shall
fall
to
you
as
your
inheritance.
47:15 "This
shall
be
the
boundary
of
the
land:
On
the
north
side,
from
the
Great
Sea
by
way
of
Hethlon
to
Lebo-hamath,
and
on
to
Zedad,
47:16 Berothah,
Sibraim
(which
lies
on
the
border
between
Damascus
and
Hamath),
as
far
as
Hazer-hatticon,
which
is
on
the
border
of
Hauran.
47:17 So
the
boundary
shall
run
from
the
sea
to
Hazar-enan,
which
is
on
the
northern
border
of
Damascus,
with
the
border
of
Hamath
to
the
north.
This
shall
be
the
north
side.
47:18 "On
the
east
side,
the
boundary
shall
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
shall
be
the
east
side.
47:19 "On
the
south
side,
it
shall
run
from
Tamar
as
far
as
the
waters
of
Meribah-kadesh,
from
there
along
the
Brook
of
Egypt
to
the
Great
Sea.
This
shall
be
the
south
side.
47:20 "On
the
west
side,
the
Great
Sea
shall
be
the
boundary
to
a
point
opposite
Lebo-hamath.
This
shall
be
the
west
side.
47:21 "So
you
shall
divide
this
land
among
you
according
to
the
tribes
of
Israel.
47:22 You
shall
allot
it
as
an
inheritance
for
yourselves
and
for
the
sojourners
who
reside
among
you
and
have
had
children
among
you.
They
shall
be
to
you
as
native-born
children
of
Israel.
With
you
they
shall
be
allotted
an
inheritance
among
the
tribes
of
Israel.
47:23 In
whatever
tribe
the
sojourner
resides,
there
you
shall
assign
him
his
inheritance,
declares
the
Lord
GOD.
