Ezekiel 47:8-10
Lexham English Bible
8 And he said to me, “These waters are going out to the eastern region, and they go down to the Jordan Valley,[a] and they come to the sea[b] and flow into the sea where they issue out,[c] and the waters in the sea will be healed.[d] 9 And then every living creature with which it teems,[e] to every place the waters come[f] it will live; and very many fish will live because these waters came there, and so the water will be healed[g] and everything will be alive everywhere that[h] the stream will come.[i] 10 And then fishers[j] from En Gedi and on up to En Eglaim will stand beside it, a sea-girt drying yard for nets; their fish for the dragnets will be of every kind,[k] like the fish of the great sea,[l] and very many.
