Ezekiel 47:1-12

Water Flowing from the Temple

1Then he brought me back to athe door of the temple, and behold, bwater was issuing from below cthe 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 dthe altar. 2Then he brought me out by way of ethe north gate and led me around on the outside to fthe outer gate that faces toward the east; and behold, the water was trickling out on the south side.

3Going on eastward with a measuring line in his hand, gthe man measured a thousand cubits,
A  cubit was about 18 inches or 45 centimeters
and then led me through the water, and it was ankle-deep.
4Again 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. 5Again 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. 6And he said to me, iSon of man, jhave you seen this?”

Then he led me back to the bank of the river.
7As I went back, I saw on the bank of the river kvery many trees on the one side and on the other. 8And he said to me, “This water flows toward the eastern region and goes down into lthe Arabah, and enters the sea;
That is,  the Dead Sea
when the water flows into nthe sea, the water will become fresh.
Hebrew will be healed; also verses 9, 11
9And wherever the river goes,
Septuagint, Syriac, Vulgate, Targum; Hebrew  the two rivers go
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
Hebrew lacks  the waters of the sea
may become fresh; so everything will live where the river goes.
10Fishermen will stand beside the sea. From rEngedi to sEneglaim it will be a place for the spreading of nets. Its fish will be of very many kinds, like the fish of tthe Great Sea.
That is,  the Mediterranean Sea; also verses 15, 19, 20
11But its swamps and marshes will not become fresh; they are to be left for salt. 12And on the banks, von both sides of the river, there will grow wall kinds of trees for food. xTheir leaves will not wither, nor their fruit fail, ybut they will bear fresh fruit every month, because the water for them flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and ztheir leaves for healing.”

Joel 3:18

18 “And in that day
aathe mountains shall drip sweet wine,
and the hills shall flow with milk,
and aball the streambeds of Judah
shall flow with water;
acand a fountain shall come forth from the house of the Lord
and water the Valley of adShittim.

14but akwhoever drinks of the water that I will give him alwill never be thirsty again.

38Whoever believes in me, aoas
Or  let him come to me, and let him who believes in me drink. As
the Scripture has said, aqOut of his heart will flow rivers of arliving water.’”
