Ezekiel 47
1 He brought me back to the door of the temple; and behold, waters flowed out from under the threshold of the temple eastward, for the front of the temple faced towards the east. The waters came down from underneath, from the right side of the temple, on the south of the altar.
他帶我回到殿門，見殿的門檻下有水往東流出（原來殿面朝東）。這水從檻下，由殿的右邊，在祭壇的南邊往下流。
2 Then he brought me out by the way of the gate northward, and led me around by the way outside to the outer gate, by the way of the gate that looks towards the east. Behold, waters ran out on the right side.
他帶我出北門，又領我從外邊轉到朝東的外門，見水從右邊流出。
3 When the man went out 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.
他手拿準繩往東出去的時候，量了一千肘，使我詵過水，水到踝子骨。
4 Again 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 waters that were to the waist.
他又量了一千肘，使我詵過水，水就到膝；再量了一千肘，使我詵過水，水便到腰；
5 Afterward he measured one thousand; and it was a river that I could not pass through, for the waters had risen, waters to swim in, a river that could not be walked through.
又量了一千肘，水便成了河，使我不能詵過。因為水勢漲起，成為可洑的水，不可詵的河。
6 He 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.
他對我說：「人子啊，你看見了甚麼？」 他就帶我回到河邊。
7 Now when I had returned, behold, on the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.
我回到河邊的時候，見在河這邊與那邊的岸上有極多的樹木。
8 Then he said to me, “These waters flow out towards the eastern region and will go down into the Arabah. Then they will go towards the sea and flow into the sea which will be made to flow out; and the waters will be healed.
他對我說：「這水往東方流去，必下到亞拉巴，直到海。所發出來的水必流入 鹽海，使水變甜。
9 It will happen that every living creature which swarms, in every place where the rivers come, will live. Then there will be a very great multitude of fish; for these waters have come there, and the waters of the sea will be healed, and everything will live wherever the river comes.
這河水所到之處，凡滋生的動物都必生活，並且因這流來的水必有極多的魚，海水也變甜了。這河水所到之處，百物都必生活。
10 It will happen that fishermen will stand by it. From En Gedi even to En Eglaim will be a place for the spreading of nets. Their fish will be after their kinds, as the fish of the great sea, exceedingly many.
必有漁夫站在河邊，從隱‧基底直到隱‧以革蓮，都作曬網之處。那魚各從其類，好像大海的魚甚多。
11 But its swamps and marshes will not be healed. They will be given up to salt.
只是泥濘之地與窪濕之處不得治好，必為鹽地。
12 By the river banks, on both sides, will grow every tree for food, whose leaf won’t wither, neither will its fruit fail. It will produce new fruit every month, because its waters issue out of the sanctuary. Its fruit will be for food, and its leaf for healing.”
在河這邊與那邊的岸上必生長各類的樹木；其果可作食物，葉子不枯乾，果子不斷絕。每月必結新果子，因為這水是從聖所流出來的。樹上的果子必作食物，葉子乃為治病。」
13 The Lord GOD says: “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.
主耶和華如此說：「你們要照地的境界，按以色列十二支派分地為業。約瑟必得兩分。
14 You shall inherit it, one as well as another; for I swore to give it to your fathers. This land will fall to you for inheritance.
你們承受這地為業，要彼此均分；因為我曾起誓應許將這地賜與你們的列祖；這地必歸你們為業。
15 “This 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;
「地的四界乃是如此：北界從大海往希特倫，直到西達達口。
16 Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim (which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath), to Hazer Hatticon, which is by the border of Hauran.
又往哈馬、比羅他、西伯蓮（西伯蓮在大馬士革與哈馬兩界中間），到浩蘭邊界的哈撒‧哈提干。
17 The 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.
這樣，境界從海邊往大馬士革地界上的哈薩‧以難，北邊以哈馬地為界。這是北界。
18 “The east side, between Hauran, Damascus, Gilead, and Eretz-Israel, shall be the Jordan; from the north border to the east sea you shall measure. This is the east side.
「東界在浩蘭、大馬士革、基列，和以色列地的中間，就是約旦河。你們要從北界量到東海。這是東界。
19 “The south side southward shall be from Tamar as far as the waters of Meriboth Kadesh, to the brook, to the great sea. This is the south side southward.
「南界是從他瑪到米利巴‧加低斯的水，延到 埃及小河，直到大海。這是南界。
20 “The west side shall be the great sea, from the south border as far as opposite the entrance of Hamath. This is the west side.
「西界就是大海，從南界直到哈馬口對面之地。這是西界。
21 “So you shall divide this land to yourselves according to the tribes of Israel.
「你們要按着以色列的支派彼此分這地。
22 You shall divide it by lot for an inheritance to you and to the aliens who live amongst you, who will father children amongst you. Then they shall be to you as the native-born amongst the children of Israel. They shall have inheritance with you amongst the tribes of Israel.
要拈鬮分這地為業，歸與自己和你們中間寄居的外人，就是在你們中間生養兒女的外人。你們要看他們如同以色列人中所生的一樣；他們在以色列支派中要與你們同得地業。
23 In whatever tribe the stranger lives, there you shall give him his inheritance,” says the Lord GOD.
外人寄居在哪支派中，你們就在那裏分給他地業。這是主耶和華說的。」
