Ezekiel 47:9-11
New English Translation

9 Every living creature that swarms where the river[a] flows will live; there will be many fish, for these waters flow there. It will become fresh,[b] and everything will live where the river flows. 10 Fishermen will stand beside it; from En Gedi to En Eglaim they will spread nets. They will catch many kinds of fish, like the fish of the Great Sea.[c] 11 But its swamps and its marshes will not become fresh; they will remain salty.

Footnotes

  1. Ezekiel 47:9 tn Heb “two rivers,” perhaps under the influence of Zech 14:8. The translation follows the LXX and other ancient versions in reading the singular, which is demanded by the context (see vv. 5-7, 9b, 12).
  2. Ezekiel 47:9 tn Heb “will be healed.”
  3. Ezekiel 47:10 sn The Great Sea refers to the Mediterranean Sea (also in vv. 15, 19, 20).
