Afterward he brought me againunto the door of the house; and, behold, watersissued out fromunder the threshold of the houseeastward: for the forefront of the housestoodtoward the east, and the waterscamedownfromunderfrom the rightside of the house, at the southside of the altar.
Thenbrought he me out of the way of the gatenorthward, and led me about the way withoutunto the uttergate by the way thatlooketheastward; and, behold, there ran out waters on the rightside.
And when the man that had the line in his handwentfortheastward, he measured a thousandcubits, and he brought me through the waters; the waterswere to the ancles.
Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through the waters; the waterswere to the knees. Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through; the waterswere to the loins.
Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a riverthat I could not passover: for the waterswererisen, waters to swim in, a riverthatcould not be passedover.
Thensaid he unto me, Thesewatersissue out toward the eastcountry, and go downinto the desert, and go into the sea: whichbeingbroughtforthinto the sea, the watersshall be healed.
And it shallcome to pass, thateverythingthatliveth, whichmoveth, whithersoever the riversshallcome, shalllive: and thereshall be a verygreatmultitude of fish, becausethesewatersshallcomethither: for theyshall be healed; and everythingshalllivewhither the rivercometh.
And it shallcome to pass, that the fishersshallstandupon it fromEngedievenuntoEneglaim; theyshall be a place to spreadforthnets; theirfishshall be according to theirkinds, as the fish of the great sea, exceedingmany.
And by the riverupon the bankthereof, on thisside and on thatside, shallgrow all trees for meat, whoseleafshall not fade, neithershall the fruitthereof be consumed: it shallbringforth new fruitaccording to his months, becausetheirwaterstheyissued out of the sanctuary: and the fruitthereofshall be for meat, and the leafthereof for medicine.
Thussaith the Lord GOD; Thisshall be the border, whereby ye shallinherit the landaccording to the twelvetribes of Israel: Josephshallhave two portions.
And ye shallinherit it, one as well as another: concerning the which I lifted up minehand to give it untoyourfathers: and thislandshallfallunto you for inheritance.
And the eastside ye shallmeasurefromHauran, and fromDamascus, and fromGilead, and from the land of Israel by Jordan, from the borderunto the east sea. And this is the eastside.
And it shallcome to pass, that ye shalldivide it by lot for an inheritanceunto you, and to the strangersthatsojournamong you, whichshallbegetchildrenamong you: and theyshall be unto you as born in the countryamong the children of Israel; theyshallhaveinheritancewith you among the tribes of Israel.
