Ezekiel 47:9

Every living creature which swarms where the river ¹  flows will live; there will be many fish, for these waters flow there. It will become fresh ²  and everything will live where the river flows.

Ex 15:26; Ps 78:16; Ps 103:3; Isa 30:26; Isa 49:12; Isa 60:3-10; Zec 2:11; Zec 8:21-23; Joh 3:16; Joh 5:25; Joh 6:63; Joh 11:25; Joh 11:26; Joh 14:6,19; Ac 2:41,47; Ac 4:4; Ac 5:14; Ac 6:7; Ac 21:20; Ro 8:2; 1Co 15:45; Eph 2:1-5

¹ 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 tn Heb “will be healed.”
