Revelation 21
1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the
first heaven and the first earth were passed away;
and there was no more sea.
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem,
coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a
bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying,
Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he
will dwell with them, and they shall be his people,
and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes;
and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor
crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the
former things are passed away.
5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I
make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for
these words are true and faithful.
6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and
Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto
him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of
life freely.
7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I
will be his God, and he shall be my son.
8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the
abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and
sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have
their part in the lake which burneth with fire and
brimstone: which is the second death.
9 And there came unto me one of the seven angels
which had the seven vials full of the seven last
plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I
will shew thee the bride, the Lamb's wife.
10 And he carried me away in the spirit to a great
and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the
holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
11 Having the glory of God: and her light was like
unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone,
clear as crystal;
12 And had a wall great and high, and had twelve
gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names
written thereon, which are the names of the twelve
tribes of the children of Israel:
13 On the east three gates; on the north three gates;
on the south three gates; and on the west three
gates.
14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations,
and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the
Lamb.
15 And he that talked with me had a golden reed to
measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall
thereof.
16 And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is
as large as the breadth: and he measured the city
with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length
and the breadth and the height of it are equal.
17 And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and
forty and four cubits, according to the measure of a
man, that is, of the angel.
18 And the building of the wall of it was of jasper:
and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass.
19 And the foundations of the wall of the city were
garnished with all manner of precious stones. The
first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire;
the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald;
20 The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the
seventh, chrysolyte; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a
topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a
jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst.
21 And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; every
several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the
city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass.
22 And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God
Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
23 And the city had no need of the sun, neither of
the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did
lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof.
24 And the nations of them which are saved shall walk
in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do
bring their glory and honour into it.
25 And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by
day: for there shall be no night there.
26 And they shall bring the glory and honour of the
nations into it.
27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing
that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh
abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are
written in the Lamb's book of life.
