1 ثم ارجعني الى مدخل البيت واذا بمياه تخرج من تحت عتبة البيت نحو المشرق لان وجه البيت نحو المشرق. والمياه نازلة من تحت جانب البيت الايمن عن جنوب المذبح.2 ثم اخرجني من طريق باب الشمال ودار بي في الطريق من خارج الباب الخارجي من الطريق الذي يتجه نحو المشرق واذا بمياه جارية من الجانب الايمن.3 وعند خروج الرجل نحو المشرق والخيط بيده قاس الف ذراع وعبّرني في المياه والمياه الى الكعبين.4 ثم قاس الفا وعبّرني في المياه والمياه الى الركبتين. ثم قاس الفا وعبّرني والمياه الى الحقوين.5 ثم قاس الفا واذا بنهر لم استطع عبوره لان المياه طمت مياه سباحة نهر لا يعبر.6 وقال لي أرأيت يا ابن آدم. ثم ذهب بي وارجعني الى شاطئ النهر.7 وعند رجوعي اذا على شاطئ النهر اشجار كثيرة جدا من هنا ومن هناك.8 وقال لي هذه المياه خارجة الى الدائرة الشرقية وتنزل الى العربة وتذهب الى البحر. الى البحر هي خارجة فتشفى المياه.9 ويكون ان كل نفس حية تدب حيثما يأتي النهران تحيا ويكون السمك كثيرا جدا لان هذه المياه تأتي الى هناك فتشفى ويحيا كل ما يأتي النهر اليه.10 ويكون الصيادون واقفين عليه من عين جدي الى عين عجلايم يكون لبسط الشباك ويكون سمكهم على انواعه كسمك البحر العظيم كثيرا جدا.11 اما غمقاته وبركه فلا تشفى. تجعل للملح.12 وعلى النهر ينبت على شاطئه من هنا ومن هناك كل شجر للأكل لا يذبل ورقه ولا ينقطع ثمره. كل شهر يبكر لان مياهه خارجة من المقدس ويكون ثمره للاكل وورقه للدواء13 هكذا قال السيد الرب. هذا هو التخم الذي به تمتلكون الارض بحسب اسباط اسرائيل الاثني عشر. يوسف قسمان.14 وتمتلكونها احدكم كصاحبه التي رفعت يدي لاعطي آباءكم اياها وهذه الارض تقع لكم نصيبا.15 وهذا تخم الارض. نحو الشمال من البحر الكبير طريق حثلون الى المجيء الى صدد16 حماة وبيروثة وسبرائم التي بين تخم دمشق وتخم حماة وحصر الوسطى التي على تخم حوران.17 ويكون التخم من البحر حصر عينان تخم دمشق والشمال شمالا وتخم حماة وهذا جانب الشمال.18 وجانب الشرق بين حوران ودمشق وجلعاد وارض اسرائيل الاردن. من التخم الى البحر الشرقي تقيسون. وهذا جانب المشرق.19 وجانب الجنوب يمينا من ثامار الى مياه مريبوث قادش النهر الى البحر الكبير وهذا جانب اليمين جنوبا.20 وجانب الغرب البحر الكبير من التخم الى مقابل مدخل حماة. وهذا جانب الغرب.21 فتقتسمون هذه الارض لكم لاسباط اسرائيل.22 ويكون انكم تقسمونها بالقرعة لكم وللغرباء المتغربين في وسطكم الذين يلدون بنين في وسطكم فيكونون لكم كالوطنيين من بني اسرائيل. يقاسمونكم الميراث في وسط اسباط اسرائيل.23 ويكون انه في السبط الذي فيه يتغرب غريب هناك تعطونه ميراثه يقول السيد الرب

1 Afterward he brought me again 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 stood toward the east, and the waters came down from under from the right side of the house, at the south side of the altar.2 Then brought he me out of the way of the gate northward, and led me about the way without to the utter gate by the way that looks eastward; and, behold, there ran out waters on the right side.3 And when the man that had the line in his hand went forth eastward, he measured a thousand cubits, and he brought me through the waters; the waters were to the ankles.4 Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through the waters; the waters were to the knees. Again he measured a thousand, and brought me through; the waters were to the loins.5 Afterward he measured a thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass over: for the waters were risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be passed over.6 And he said to me, Son of man, have you seen this? Then he brought me, and caused me to return to the brink of the river.7 Now when I had returned, behold, at the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.8 Then said he to me, These waters issue out toward the east country, and go down into the desert, and go into the sea: which being brought forth into the sea, the waters shall be healed.9 And it shall come to pass, that every thing that lives, which moves, wherever the rivers shall come, shall live: and there shall be a very great multitude of fish, because these waters shall come thither: for they shall be healed; and every thing shall live where the river comes.10 And it shall come to pass, that the fishers shall stand on it from Engedi even to Eneglaim; they shall be a place to spread forth nets; their fish shall be according to their kinds, as the fish of the great sea, exceeding many.11 But the miry places thereof and the marshes thereof shall not be healed; they shall be given to salt.12 And by the river on the bank thereof, on this side and on that side, shall grow all trees for meat, whose leaf shall not fade, neither shall the fruit thereof be consumed: it shall bring forth new fruit according to his months, because their waters they issued out of the sanctuary: and the fruit thereof shall be for meat, and the leaf thereof for medicine.13 Thus said the Lord GOD; This shall be the border, whereby you shall inherit the land according to the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph shall have two portions.14 And you shall inherit it, one as well as another: concerning the which I lifted up my hand to give it to your fathers: and this land shall fall to you for inheritance.15 And this shall be the border of the land toward the north side, from the great sea, the way of Hethlon, as men go to Zedad;16 Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath; Hazarhatticon, which is by the coast of Hauran.17 And the border from the sea shall be Hazarenan, the border of Damascus, and the north northward, and the border of Hamath. And this is the north side.18 And the east side you shall measure from Hauran, and from Damascus, and from Gilead, and from the land of Israel by Jordan, from the border to the east sea. And this is the east side.19 And the south side southward, from Tamar even to the waters of strife in Kadesh, the river to the great sea. And this is the south side southward.20 The west side also shall be the great sea from the border, till a man come over against Hamath. This is the west side.21 So shall you divide this land to you according to the tribes of Israel.22 And it shall come to pass, that you shall divide it by lot for an inheritance to you, and to the strangers that sojourn among you, which shall beget children among you: and they shall be to you as born in the country among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel.23 And it shall come to pass, that in what tribe the stranger sojournes, there shall you give him his inheritance, said the Lord GOD.
