| 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 , chrysolite ; 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 . |
