以西结书 47

1 他带我回到殿门，见殿的门槛下有水往东流出（原来殿面朝东）。这水从槛下，由殿的右边，在祭坛的南边往下流。

And he took me back to the door of the house; and I saw that waters were flowing out from under the doorstep of the house on the east, for the house was facing east: and the waters came down from under, from the right side of the house, on the south side of the altar.

2 他带我出北门，又领我从外边转到朝东的外门，见水从右边流出。

And he took me out by the north doorway, and made me go round to the outside of the doorway looking to the east; and I saw waters running slowly out on the south side.

3 他手拿准绳往东出去的时候，量了一千肘，使我趟过水，水到踝子骨。

And the man went out to the east with the line in his hand, and after measuring a thousand cubits, he made me go through the waters, which came over my feet.

4 他又量了一千肘，使我趟过水，水就到膝；再量了一千肘，使我趟过水，水便到腰；

And again, measuring a thousand cubits, he made me go through the waters which came up to my knees. Again, measuring a thousand, he made me go through the waters up to the middle of my body.

5 又量了一千肘，水便成了河，使我不能趟过。因为水势涨起，成为可洑的水，不可趟的河。

Again, after his measuring a thousand, it became a river which it was not possible to go through: for the waters had become deep enough for swimming, a river it was not possible to go through.

6 他对我说：“人子啊，你看见了什么？” 他就带我回到河边。

And he said to me, Son of man, have you seen this? Then he took me to the river's edge.

7 我回到河边的时候，见在河这边与那边的岸上有极多的树木。

And he took me back, and I saw at the edge of the river a very great number of trees on this side and on that.

8 他对我说：“这水往东方流去，必下到亚拉巴，直到海。所发出来的水必流入 盐海，使水变甜。

And he said to me, These waters are flowing out to the east part of the land and down into the Arabah; and they will go to the sea, and the waters will be made sweet.

9 这河水所到之处，凡滋生的动物都必生活，并且因这流来的水必有极多的鱼，海水也变甜了。这河水所到之处，百物都必生活。

And it will come about that every living and moving thing, wherever their streams come, will have life; and there will be very much fish because these waters have come there and have been made sweet: and everything wherever the river comes will have life.

10 必有渔夫站在河边，从隐·基底直到隐·以革莲，都作晒网之处。那鱼各从其类，好像大海的鱼甚多。

And fishermen will take up their places by it: from En-gedi as far as En-eglaim will be a place for the stretching out of nets; the fish will be of every sort, like the fish of the Great Sea, a very great number.

11 只是泥泞之地与洼湿之处不得治好，必为盐地。

The wet places and the pools will not be made sweet; they will be given up to salt.

12 在河这边与那边的岸上必生长各类的树木；其果可作食物，叶子不枯干，果子不断绝。每月必结新果子，因为这水是从圣所流出来的。树上的果子必作食物，叶子乃为治病。”

And by the edge of the river, on this side and on that, will come up every tree used for food, whose leaves will ever be green and its fruit will not come to an end: it will have new fruit every month, because its waters come out from the holy place: the fruit will be for food and the leaf will make well those who are ill.

13 主耶和华如此说：“你们要照地的境界，按以色列十二支派分地为业。约瑟必得两分。

This is what the Lord has said: These are the limits by which you will take up your heritage in the land among the twelve tribes of Israel: Joseph is to have two parts.

14 你们承受这地为业，要彼此均分；因为我曾起誓应许将这地赐与你们的列祖；这地必归你们为业。

And you are to make an equal division of it; as I gave my oath to your fathers to give it to you: for this land is to be your heritage.

15 “地的四界乃是如此：北界从大海往希特伦，直到西达达口。

And this is to be the limit of the land: on the north side, from the Great Sea, in the direction of Hethlon, as far as the way into Hamath;

16 又往哈马、比罗他、西伯莲（西伯莲在大马士革与哈马两界中间），到浩兰边界的哈撒·哈提干。

To Zedad, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the limit of Damascus and the limit of Hazar-hatticon, which is on the limit of Hauran.

17 这样，境界从海边往大马士革地界上的哈萨·以难，北边以哈马地为界。这是北界。

And this is the limit from the sea in the direction of Hazar-enon; and the limit of Damascus is to the north, and on the north is the limit of Hamath. This is the north side.

18 “东界在浩兰、大马士革、基列，和以色列地的中间，就是约旦河。你们要从北界量到东海。这是东界。

And the east side will be from Hazar-enon, which is between Hauran and Damascus; and between Gilead and the land of Israel the Jordan will be the limit, to the east sea, to Tamar. This is the east side.

19 “南界是从他玛到米利巴·加低斯的水，延到 埃及小河，直到大海。这是南界。

And the south side to the south will be from Tamar as far as the waters of Meribath-kadesh, to the stream of Egypt, to the Great Sea. This is the south side, on the south.

20 “西界就是大海，从南界直到哈马口对面之地。这是西界。

And the west side will be the Great Sea, from the limit on the south to a point opposite the way into Hamath. This is the west side.

21 “你们要按着以色列的支派彼此分这地。

You will make a division of the land among you, tribe by tribe.

22 要拈阄分这地为业，归与自己和你们中间寄居的外人，就是在你们中间生养儿女的外人。你们要看他们如同以色列人中所生的一样；他们在以色列支派中要与你们同得地业。

And you are to make a distribution of it, by the decision of the Lord, for a heritage to you and to the men from other lands who are living among you and who have children in your land: they will be the same to you as if they were Israelites by birth, they will have their heritage with you among the tribes of Israel.

23 外人寄居在哪支派中，你们就在那里分给他地业。这是主耶和华说的。”

In whatever tribe the man from a strange land is living, there you are to give him his heritage, says the Lord.
