Ezekiel 47:11-13
New American Standard Bible 1995
11 But its swamps and marshes will not become [a]fresh; they will be [b]left for (A)salt. 12 (B)By the river on its bank, on one side and on the other, will grow all kinds of (C)trees for food. Their (D)leaves will not wither and their fruit will not fail. They will bear every month because their water flows from the sanctuary, and their fruit will be for food and their (E)leaves for healing.”
Boundaries and Division of the Land
13 Thus says the Lord [c]God, “This shall be the (F)boundary by which you shall divide the land for an inheritance among the twelve tribes of Israel; Joseph shall have two (G)portions.
