Ezekiel 47:3 in Context — Ezekiel 47
1 HÍZOME tornar luego á la entrada de la casa; y he aquí aguas que salían de debajo del umbral de la casa hacia el oriente: porque la fachada de la casa estaba al oriente: y las aguas descendían de debajo, hacia el lado derecho de la casa, al mediodía del altar.
2 Y sacóme por el camino de la puerta del norte, é hízome rodear por el camino fuera de la puerta, por de fuera al camino de la que mira al oriente: y he aquí las aguas que salían al lado derecho.
3 Y saliendo el varón hacia el oriente, [tenía] un cordel en su mano; y midió mil codos, é hízome pasar por las aguas hasta los tobillos.
4 Y midió [otros] mil, é hízome pasar por las aguas hasta las rodillas. Midió luego [otros] mil, é hízome pasar por las aguas hasta los lomos.
5 Y midió [otros] mil, é [iba ya] el arroyo que yo no podía pasar: porque las aguas se habían alzado, [y] el arroyo no se podía pasar sino á nado.
