Ezekiel 47:6-9

6He said to me, “Son of man, have you 1seen this?” Then he brought me 2back to the bank of the river.

7Now when I had returned, behold, on the bank of the river there were very many 3trees on the one side and on the other.

8Then he said to me, “These waters go out toward the eastern region and go down into the 4Arabah; then they go toward the sea, being made to flow into the 5sea, and the waters of the sea become 6fresh.

9It will come about that every living creature which swarms in every place where the 7river goes, will live. And there will be very many fish, for these waters go there and the others 8become fresh; so 9everything will live where the river goes.
