Ezekiel 47:12-14
EasyEnglish Bible
12 All kinds of fruit trees will live on each side of the river. Their leaves will never become dry. They will always give fruit every month. This is because the water that feeds them comes from the holy temple. The fruit from these trees will provide food. And their leaves will make sick people well.’
The borders of Israel's land
13 This is what the Almighty Lord says: ‘This is the land that you will share among Israel's 12 tribes. Give one part to each tribe, but Joseph's descendants will have two parts.[a] 14 Share the land in equal parts for each tribe. I promised your ancestors that I would give them this land to live in. So now it will belong to you and your descendants.

Ezekiel 47:12-14
New International Version
12 Fruit trees of all kinds will grow on both banks of the river.(A) Their leaves will not wither, nor will their fruit(B) fail. Every month they will bear fruit, because the water from the sanctuary(C) flows to them. Their fruit will serve for food and their leaves for healing.(D)”
The Boundaries of the Land
13 This is what the Sovereign Lord says: “These are the boundaries(E) of the land that you will divide among the twelve tribes of Israel as their inheritance, with two portions for Joseph.(F) 14 You are to divide it equally among them. Because I swore with uplifted hand to give it to your ancestors, this land will become your inheritance.(G)
