Ezekiel 47:11
Compare all
9 And it shall be that every living thing that moves, wherever1 the rivers go, will live. There will be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters go there; for they will be healed, and everything will live wherever the river goes.  
10 It shall be that fishermen will stand by it from En Gedi to En Eglaim; they will be places for spreading their nets. Their fish will be of the same kinds as the fish aof the Great Sea, exceedingly many.  
11 But its swamps and marshes will not be healed; they will be given over to salt.
12 aAlong the bank of the river, on this side and that, will grow all kinds of trees used for food; btheir leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. They will bear fruit every month, because their water flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for cmedicine.”

Ezekiel 47:11

The exception, which reserves for sterility places to which the living water does not reach, probably indicates that the life and health are solely due to the stream which proceeds from beneath the throne of God. Compare Isaiah 57:20-21.
