Ezekiel 47:7
Compare all
5 Again he measured one thousand, and it was a river that I could not cross; for the water was too deep, water in which one must swim, a river that could not be crossed.
6 He said to me, “Son of man, have you seen this?” Then he brought me and returned me to the bank of the river.
7 When I returned, there, along the bank of the river, were very many atrees on one side and the other.  
8 Then he said to me: “This water flows toward the eastern region, goes down into the1 valley, and enters the sea. When it reaches the sea, its waters are healed.  
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.”

14 You shall inherit it equally with one another; for I araised My hand in an oath to give it to your fathers, and this land shall bfall to you as your inheritance.
