Ezekiel 47:3-5

Water Flowing from the Temple

3 Going on eastward with a measuring line in his hand, d the man measured a thousand cubits, 1 and then led me through the water, and it was ankle-deep. 4 Again he measured a thousand, and led me through the water, and it was knee-deep. Again he measured a thousand, and led me through the water, and it was waist-deep. 5 Again he measured a thousand, and it was a river that I could not pass through, for the water had risen. It was deep enough to swim in, a river that could not be passed through.
