Ezekiel 47:1-3

Evangelical Heritage Version

Life-Giving Water in the New Creation

47 Then he brought me back to the entrance of the temple, and I saw that water was flowing out from under the threshold of the temple toward the east (the temple faced east). The water was flowing down from under the south side of the temple, south of the altar.

² He brought me out through the north gate that led into the inner courtyard and led me around on the outside of the temple to the outer gateway on the east side, and I saw that water was trickling out from its south side. ³ As the man went out toward the east, he had a measuring line in his hand. He measured off a thousand cubits,^[a] and then he led me through the water. The water was ankle-deep.
