The water was flowing down from under the south side of the temple, south of the altar. 2 Then he brought me out through the north gate and led me around the outside to the outer gate facing east, and I saw water trickling from the south side. 3 As the man went eastward with a measuring line in his hand, he measured off a thousand cubits and led me through the water, which was ankle-deep. 4 He measured off another thousand cubits and led me through the water, which was knee-deep. He measured off another thousand and led me through the water, which was waist-deep. 5 He measured off another thousand, but now it was a river that I could not cross, because the water had risen and was deep enough to swim in—a river that could not be crossed. 6 He asked me, 'Son of man, do you see this?' Then he led me back to the bank of the river. 7 When I returned, I saw many trees on both sides of the river. 8 He said to me, 'This water flows toward the eastern region and goes down into the Arabah, where it enters the Dead Sea. When it flows into the sea, the water there becomes fresh.' 9 Every living creature that swarms wherever the river goes will live. There will be many fish because this water flows there and makes the salt water fresh; so where the river flows, everything will live. 10 Fishermen will stand along its shores; from En Gedi to En Eglaim, there will be places to spread nets. The fish will be of many kinds, like the fish of the Great Sea, very numerous. 11 But the swamps and marshes will not become fresh; they will be left for salt. 12 On both sides of the river, all kinds of trees for food will grow. Their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. They will bear fruit every month because the water that nourishes them flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will provide food, and their leaves will be for healing.
