Ezekiel 47:3-5

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ And when the man that had the line in his hand went out towards the east, he measured a thousand cubits: and he brought me through the water up to the ankles.

⁴ And again he measured a thousand, and he brought me through the water up to the knees.

⁵ And he measured a thousand, and he brought me through the water up to the loins. And he measured a thousand, and it was a torrent, which I could not pass over: for the waters were risen so as to make a deep torrent, which could not be passed over.
