Ezekiel 29:5

29:5 I will leave you in the wilderness,

you and all the fish of your waterways;

you will fall in the open field and will not be gathered up or collected. ¹ 

I have given you as food to the beasts of the earth and the birds of the skies.

Ezekiel 47:9

47:9 Every living creature which swarms where the river ²  flows will live; there will be many fish, for these waters flow there. It will become fresh ³  and everything will live where the river flows.

[29:5]  ¹ tc Some Hebrew mss, the Targum, and the LXX read “buried.”

[47:9]  ² tn Heb “two rivers,” perhaps under the influence of Zech 14:8. The translation follows the LXX and other ancient versions in reading the singular, which is demanded by the context (see vv. 5-7, 9b, 12).

[47:9]  ³ tn Heb “will be healed.”
