Ezekiel 47:8-16 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

8. The man said:This water flows eastwards to the valley of the River Jordan and empties into the Dead Sea, where it turns the salt water into fresh water.

9. Wherever this water flows, there will be all kinds of animals and fish, because it will bring life and fresh water to the Dead Sea.

10. From En-Gedi to Eneglaim, people will fish in the sea and dry their nets along the coast. There will be as many kinds of fish in the Dead Sea as there are in the Mediterranean Sea.

11. But the marshes along the shore will remain salty, so that people can use the salt from them.

12. Fruit trees will grow all along this river and produce fresh fruit every month. The leaves will never dry out, because they will always have water from the stream that flows from the temple, and they will be used for healing people.

15. The northern border will begin at the Mediterranean Sea, then continue eastward to Hethlon, to Lebo-Hamath, then across to Zedad,

16. Berothah, and Sibraim, which is on the border between the two kingdoms of Damascus and Hamath. The border will end at Hazer-Hatticon, which is on the border of Hauran.
