Ezekiel 47:12-14
Common English Bible
12 but on both banks of the river will grow up all kinds of fruit-bearing trees. Their leaves won’t wither, and their fruitfulness won’t wane. They will produce fruit in every month, because their water comes from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for eating, their leaves for healing.”
13 The Lord God proclaims: These[a] are the boundaries of the portions of land that will be distributed as an inheritance to the twelve tribes of Israel. Joseph will receive two portions. 14 What I swore to give to your ancestors, you will distribute as an inheritance equally. This land is given to you as an inheritance.

Ezekiel 47:12-14
New International Version
12 Fruit trees of all kinds will grow on both banks of the river.(A) Their leaves will not wither, nor will their fruit(B) fail. Every month they will bear fruit, because the water from the sanctuary(C) flows to them. Their fruit will serve for food and their leaves for healing.(D)”
The Boundaries of the Land
13 This is what the Sovereign Lord says: “These are the boundaries(E) of the land that you will divide among the twelve tribes of Israel as their inheritance, with two portions for Joseph.(F) 14 You are to divide it equally among them. Because I swore with uplifted hand to give it to your ancestors, this land will become your inheritance.(G)
