Every kind of living creature that swarms will live wherever the river flows,[a] and there will be a huge number of fish because this water goes there. Since the water will become fresh, there will be life everywhere the river goes. 10 Fishermen will stand beside it from En-gedi to En-eglaim.[b] These will become places where nets are spread out to dry. Their fish will consist of many different kinds, like the fish of the Mediterranean Sea.(A) 11 Yet its swamps and marshes will not be healed; they will be left for salt.
