Ezekiel 47:3 in Context — Ezekiel 47
1 Depois disto ele me fez voltar à entrada da casa; e eis que águas saíam de debaixo do umbral da casa para o oriente, pois a fachada da casa estava para o oriente; e as águas desciam de debaixo, desde o lado direito da casa, do lado sul do altar.
2 E ele me tirou [pelo] caminho da porta do norte, e me fez rodear pelo caminho de fora, até a porta externa, pelo caminho voltado ao oriente; e eis que águas corriam do lado direito.
3 E quando aquele homem saiu para o oriente, tinha em sua mão um cordel de medir; ele mediu mil côvados, e me fez passar pelas águas, que [chegavam] aos tornozelos.
4 E mediu mil [côvados] , e me fez passar pelas águas, que [chegavam] aos joelhos. Mediu [mais] mil, e me fez passar pelas águas, que [chegavam] à cintura.
5 E mediu [mais] mil, e já era um rio que eu não podia passar, porque as águas eram tão profundas que o rio não se podia atravessar a pé, somente a nado.
