¹⁴ So he went down and dipped himself seven times in the Jordan, according to the word of the man of God, ^(A)and his flesh was restored like the flesh of a little child, ^(B)and he was clean.

²⁷ And ^(A)there were many lepers^[a] in Israel in the time of the prophet Elisha, and none of them was cleansed, ^(B)but only Naaman the Syrian.”

¹³ And Jesus^[a] stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, “I will; be clean.” And immediately the leprosy left him.

^8 (A)On that day ^(B)living waters shall flow out from Jerusalem, half of them to ^(C)the eastern sea^[a] and half of them to ^(D)the western sea.^{[b] (E)}It shall continue in summer as in winter.

⁵ His mother said to the servants, “Do whatever he tells you.”

Water Flowing from the Temple

47 Then he brought me back to ^(A)the door of the temple, and behold, ^(B)water was issuing from below ^(C)the threshold of the temple toward the east (for the temple faced east). The water was flowing down from below the south end of the threshold of the temple, south of ^(D)the altar. ² Then he brought me out by way of ^(E)the north gate and led me around on the outside to ^(F)the outer gate that faces toward the east; and behold, the water was trickling out on the south side.

³ Going on eastward with a measuring line in his hand, ^(G)the man measured a thousand cubits,^[a] 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. ⁶ And he said to me, ^(H)“Son of man, ^(I)have you seen this?”

Then he led me back to the bank of the river. ⁷ As I went back, I saw on the bank of the river ^(J)very many trees on the one side and on the other. ⁸ And he said to me, “This water flows toward the eastern region and goes down into ^(K)the Arabah, and enters the sea;^[b] when the water flows into ^(L)the sea, the water will become fresh.^{[c] 9} And wherever the river goes,^[d] every living creature that swarms will live, and there will be very many fish. For this water goes there, that the waters of the sea^[e] may become fresh; so everything will live where the river goes.

¹⁰ And Elisha sent a messenger to him, saying, ^(A)“Go and wash in the Jordan seven times, and your flesh shall be restored, and you shall be clean.”

13 ^(A)“On that day there shall be ^(B)a fountain opened for the house of David and the inhabitants of Jerusalem, to cleanse them from sin and uncleanness.
