Ezekiel 47

1 Then the man brought me back to the entrance of the temple, and I saw water flowing from under the threshold of the temple toward the east (for the temple faced east). The water was coming down from under the south side of the temple, south of the altar.

1 他又领我回到圣殿门口，我看见有水从圣殿的门槛下往东流去。殿的正面朝东，这水从殿的南侧经祭坛的南边往下流。

2 Next he brought me out through the north gate and led me around the outside to the outer gate facing east, and there I saw the water trickling out from the south side.

2 随后他领我由北门出来，从外面绕到外院的东门，我见水从东门的南面涓涓流出。

3 As the man went eastward with a measuring line in his hand, he measured off a thousand cubits and led me through ankle-deep water.

3 那人手拿量绳向东量了五百米，然后领我涉水前行，水深及踝。

4 Then he measured off a thousand cubits and led me through knee-deep water. Again he measured a thousand cubits and led me through waist-deep water.

4 他又量了五百米，领我涉水前行，水深及膝。他又量了五百米，领我涉水前行，水深及腰。

5 Once again he measured off a thousand cubits, but now it was a river that I could not cross, because the water had risen and was deep enough for swimming—a river that could not be crossed on foot.

5 他又量了五百米，水已高涨成河，足可游泳，无法再涉水穿过。

6 “Son of man, do you see this?” he asked. Then he led me back to the bank of the river.

6 他问我：“人子啊，你看见了吗？” 然后，他带我回到河边，

7 When I arrived, I saw a great number of trees along both banks of the river.

7 我发现河的两岸长满了树木。

8 And he said to me, “This water flows out to the eastern region and goes down into the Arabah. When it empties into the Dead Sea, the water there becomes fresh.

8 他对我说：“这水向东流，经过亚拉巴流到盐海，使那里的咸水变为淡水。

9 Wherever the river flows, there will be swarms of living creatures and a great number of fish, because it flows there and makes the waters fresh; so wherever the river flows, everything will flourish.

9 河水流经的地方，万物滋长，鱼产丰盛，因为河水使那里的咸水变成淡水了，所以河水流经之处万物滋长。

10 Fishermen will stand by the shore; from En-gedi to En-eglaim they will spread their nets to catch fish of many kinds, like the fish of the Great Sea.

10 渔夫要站在岸边捕鱼，从隐·基底到隐·以革莲都是晒网的地方。那里的鱼就像大海的鱼一样种类繁多。

11 But the swamps and marshes will not become fresh; they will be left for salt.

11 但沼泽和湿洼之地却不会变淡，留作产盐之地。

12 Along both banks of the river, fruit trees of all kinds will grow. Their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. Each month they will bear fruit, because the water from the sanctuary flows to them. Their fruit will be used for food and their leaves for healing.”

12 沿河两岸长着各种果树，树的叶子不会枯干，果实也不会断绝。树必月月结出新果，不但果实可吃，叶子还可作药用，因为这水是从圣所流出来的。”

13 This is what the Lord GOD says: “These are the boundaries by which you are to divide the land as an inheritance among the twelve tribes of Israel; Joseph shall receive two portions.

13 主耶和华说：“你们要按照我划定的地界，把土地分给以色列的十二支派作产业，约瑟支派 要得两份地业。

14 You are to divide it equally among them. Because I swore with an uplifted hand to give it to your forefathers, this land will fall to you as an inheritance.

14 其他各支派都要均分，因为我曾起誓将这地方赐给你们祖先。这地方必成为你们的产业。

15 This shall be the boundary of the land: On the north side it will extend from the Great Sea by way of Hethlon through Lebo-hamath to Zedad,

15 “以下是这地方的地界：北界从地中海岸经希特伦到哈马口、西达达、

16 Berothah, and Sibraim (which is on the border between Damascus and Hamath), as far as Hazer-hatticon, which is on the border of Hauran.

16 比罗他和大马士革与哈马边界中间的西伯莲，一直到浩兰边界的哈撒·哈提干。

17 So the border will run from the Sea to Hazar-enan, along the northern border of Damascus, with the territory of Hamath to the north. This will be the northern boundary.

17 这样，疆界是从地中海岸一直到大马士革边界的哈萨·以难，北面以哈马为界。这是北界。

18 On the east side the border will run between Hauran and Damascus, along the Jordan between Gilead and the land of Israel, to the Eastern Sea and as far as Tamar. This will be the eastern boundary.

18 “东界是从北界南下经浩兰和大马士革之间，沿着基列和以色列中间的约旦河为界，一直伸展到东部的海。这是东界。

19 On the south side it will run from Tamar to the waters of Meribath-kadesh, and along the Brook of Egypt to the Great Sea. This will be the southern boundary.

19 “南界从他玛延伸到米利巴·加低斯泉，沿埃及小河直到地中海。这是南界。

20 And on the west side, the Great Sea will be the boundary up to a point opposite Lebo-hamath. This will be the western boundary.

20 “西界从南界沿地中海的海岸到北界哈马口对面的地方。这是西界。

21 You are to divide this land among yourselves according to the tribes of Israel.

21 “你们要按照以色列的各支派分这块地，

22 You shall allot it as an inheritance for yourselves and for the foreigners who dwell among you and who have children. You are to treat them as native-born Israelites; along with you, they shall be allotted an inheritance among the tribes of Israel.

22 用抽签的方法来分产业，也要分给在你们中间居住、生儿育女的外族人。你们要视他们如同以色列人，要让他们在以色列各支派中与你们同分产业。

23 In whatever tribe a foreigner dwells, you are to assign his inheritance there,” declares the Lord GOD.

23 他们居住在哪一支派，就要在哪一支派中分产业给他们。这是主耶和华说的。”
