1有水從聖殿湧出然後，他帶我回到聖殿的門口。有水正從殿的門檻往下流出來，向東流去，因為聖殿是朝東的。這水從殿的右邊，從祭壇的南邊下面流出來。
1He brought me back to the door of the house; and behold, waters issued out from under the threshold of the house eastward; (for the forefront of the house was toward the east;) and the waters came down from under, from the right side of the house, on the south of the altar.
2他又帶我從北門出來，再領我從外面繞到朝東的外門。有水正從右邊流出來。
2Then he brought me out by the way of the gate northward, and led me round by the way outside to the outer gate, by the way of the gate that looks toward the east; and behold, there ran out waters on the right side.
3那人手裡拿著一根準繩向東走出去的時候，量了五百公尺的距離，然後領我從水中走過去，那裡的水到了腳踝。
3When the man went forth eastward with the line in his hand, he measured one thousand cubits, and he caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the ankles.
4他又量了五百公尺，然後領我從水中走過去，水到了膝蓋。他又量了五百公尺，然後領我走過去，水到了腰。
4Again he measured one thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the knees. Again he measured one thousand, and caused me to pass through the waters, waters that were to the waist.
5他再量了五百公尺，水已成了一條河，以致我不能走過去，因為水勢高漲，成為只可供游泳的水，而不能走過去的河。
5Afterward he measured one thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass through; for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed through.
6水的功用他對我說：“人子啊！你看到了嗎？”他就領著我，帶我回到河邊。
6He said to me, Son of man, have you seen this? Then he brought me, and caused me to return to the bank of the river.
7我回來以後，看見河這邊和那邊的岸上有很多樹木。
7Now when I had returned, behold, on the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.
8他又對我說：“這水要向東方的地區流出去，下到亞拉巴，流入死海。這水流入死海，就使海裡的水變淡（“變淡”原文作“得醫治”）。
8Then he said to me, These waters issue forth toward the eastern region, and shall go down into the Arabah; and they shall go toward the sea; into the sea shall the waters go which were made to issue forth; and the waters shall be healed.
9那時，這河流過的地方，所有滋生的動物都可以存活。這水流到哪裡，哪裡就有許多魚；因為這河流到哪裡，海水就變淡，一切都可以存活。
9It shall happen, that every living creature which swarms, in every place where the rivers come, shall live; and there shall be a very great multitude of fish; for these waters have come there, and the waters of the sea shall be healed, and everything shall live wherever the river comes.
10必有漁夫站在河邊，從隱．基底直到隱．以革蓮，都是曬網的地方。各類的魚都像大海裡的魚那樣多。
10It shall happen, that fishermen shall stand by it: from En Gedi even to En Eglaim shall be a place for the spreading of nets; their fish shall be after their kinds, as the fish of the great sea, exceeding many.
11只有沼澤和窪地的水不能變淡，留作產鹽之用。
11But the miry places of it, and its marshes, shall not be healed; they shall be given up to salt.
12在河這邊和那邊的岸上，都必有各種果樹生長，可作食物，樹上的葉子不枯乾，果子也不斷絕。每月必結出新果子，因為樹所需的水是從聖所裡流出來的。樹上的果子可作食物，葉子可以治病。”
12By the river on its bank, on this side and on that side, shall grow every tree for food, whose leaf shall not wither, neither shall its fruit fail: it shall bring forth new fruit every month, because its waters issue out of the sanctuary; and its fruit shall be for food, and its leaf for healing.
13以色列的地界主耶和華這樣說：“你們按著以色列十二支派分地為業，要照著這些地界：約瑟要得雙份。
13Thus says the Lord Yahweh: This shall be the border, by which you shall divide the land for inheritance according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph shall have two portions.
14你們要均分這地為業，因為我曾舉手要把這地賜給你們的列祖，這地必歸給你們為業。
14You shall inherit it, one as well as another; for I swore to give it to your fathers: and this land shall fall to you for inheritance.
15“這地的邊界是：北邊從大海經希特倫的路，到西達達的入口，
15This shall be the border of the land: On the north side, from the great sea, by the way of Hethlon, to the entrance of Zedad;
16又經哈馬、比羅他和位於大馬士革邊界與哈馬邊界之間的西伯蓮，直到浩蘭的邊界的哈撒．哈提干。
16Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazer Hatticon, which is by the border of Hauran.
17這邊界從海到哈薩．以難，北邊有大馬士革的邊界，再北有哈馬的邊界。這是北面的地界。
17The border from the sea, shall be Hazar Enon at the border of Damascus; and on the north northward is the border of Hamath. This is the north side.
18東面的地界是在浩蘭和大馬士革之間，基列和以色列地之間的約旦河。你們要從北面的地界量到東海，這是東面的地界。
18The east side, between Hauran and Damascus and Gilead, and the land of Israel, shall be the Jordan; from the north border to the east sea you shall measure. This is the east side.
19南面的地界，從他瑪到米利巴．加低斯水，經埃及小河，到大海。這是南面的地界。
19The south side southward shall be from Tamar as far as the waters of Meriboth Kadesh, to the brook of Egypt, to the great sea. This is the south side southward.
20西面的地界是大海，從南面的地界到哈馬口的對面。這是西面的地界。
20The west side shall be the great sea, from the south border as far as over against the entrance of Hamath. This is the west side.
21抽籤分地“你們要按著以色列的支派分這地。
21So you shall divide this land to you according to the tribes of Israel.
22將來你們要抽籤分這地為業，歸給你們和你們中間的外族人。他們在你們中間生兒育女。你們應該看他們如同本地生的以色列人，他們要在以色列支派中與你們一起抽籤分地為業。
22It shall happen, that you shall divide it by lot for an inheritance to you and to the aliens who live among you, who shall father children among you; and they shall be to you as the native-born among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.
23將來無論在哪一支派裡，若有外族人寄居，你們就要在那裡把他的產業分給他。”這是主耶和華的宣告。
23It shall happen, that in what tribe the stranger lives, there you shall give him his inheritance, says the Lord Yahweh.
