Ezekiel 47:12-23 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

12. On the river, on its bank, on this side and that side, will grow every kind of tree for food. Its leaf will not wither; its fruit will not fail; it will bear new fruit every month, because its water flows out from the Sanctuary. Its fruit will be for food and its leaf will be for healing.”

13. Thus says Adonai Elohim, “This will be the border, by which you will divide the land for inheritance according to the twelve tribes of Israel, Joseph receiving two portions.

14. You will inherit it, each one like another, as I lifted My hand to give to your fathers. So this land will fall to you as an inheritance.

15. “This will be the boundary of the land: on the north side, from the Great Sea, by way of Hethlon, to the entrance of Zedad—

16. Hamath, Berothah, Sibraim, which is between the border of Damascus and the border of Hamath, as far as Hazer-hatticon, which is on the border of Hauran.

17. So the border from the sea will be Hazar-enon at the border of Damascus, with the territory of Hamath to the north. This will be the northern side.

18. The east side, between Hauran, Damascus, Gilead and the land of Israel, will be by the Jordan. You will measure from the northern border to the eastern sea. This will be the eastern side.

19. The south side southward will be from Tamar as far as the waters of Meriboth-kadesh, to the Wadi of Egypt and to the Great Sea. This will be the southern side toward the south.

20. The west side will be the Great Sea, from the southern border as far as the front of the entrance of Hamath. This will be the western side.

21. You are to divide this land for yourselves to the tribes of Israel.

22. So you are to divide it by lot for an inheritance for you and for the outsiders who dwell among you, whoever bears children among you. They will be to you like the native-born of Bnei-Yisrael; they will be allotted an inheritance along with you among the tribes of Israel.

23. In whatever tribe the outsider lives, there you will give him his inheritance.” It is a declaration of Adonai.
