Ezekiel 47:1-8

Rotherham(i) 1 Then he brought me back unto the entrance of the house, and lo! waters, coming forth from under the threshold of the house, eastward, because, the front of the house, was to the east,––and, the waters, were coming down from beneath, from the right side of the house, on the south of the altar. 2 Then he brought me out by way of the north gate, and took me round by an outer way, unto an outer gate, that which looketh eastward––and lo! waters, trickling forth out of the right side. 3 When the man went forth with a measuring line in his hand, then measured he a thousand, by the cubit, and caused me to pass through the waters––waters reaching to the ankles. 4 Then measured he a thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters––waters reaching to the knees,––and again measured he a thousand, and caused me to pass through––waters reaching to the loins. 5 Then measured he a thousand––a river, which I could not pass through––for the waters had risen––waters to swim in, a river, that could not be forded. 6 Then said he unto me, Hast thou seen, son of man? Then he took me along and caused me to return to the bank of the river. 7 When I returned, then lo! by the hank of the river, trees very many,––on this, side, and on that, side. 8 And he said unto me, These waters, are going forth unto the region toward the east, and shall go down unto the waste plain, and shall enter the sea, unto the sea, being led forth, then shall the waters, be healed;
