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.

¹ And ^G2532 I saw ^G1492 a new ^G2537 heaven ^G3772 and ^G2532 a new ^G2537 earth: ^G1093 for ^G1063 the first ^G4413 heaven ^G3772 and ^G2532 the first ^G4413 earth ^G1093 were passed away; ^G3928 and ^G2532 there was ^G2076 no ^G3756 more ^G2089 sea. ^G2281

² And ^G2532 I ^G1473 John ^G2491 saw ^G1492 the holy ^G40 city, ^G4172 new ^G2537 Jerusalem, ^G2419 coming down ^G2597 from ^G575 God ^G2316 out of ^G1537 heaven, ^G3772 prepared ^G2090 as ^G5613 a bride ^G3565 adorned ^G2885 for her ^G846 husband. ^G435

³ And ^G2532 I heard ^G191 a great ^G3173 voice ^G5456 out of ^G1537 heaven ^G3772 saying, ^G3004 Behold, ^G2400 the tabernacle ^G4633 of God ^G2316 is with ^G3326 men, ^G444 and ^G2532 he will dwell ^G4637 with ^G3326 them, ^G846 and ^G2532 they ^G846 shall be ^G2071 his ^G846 people, ^G2992 and ^G2532 God ^G2316 himself ^G846 shall be ^G2071 with ^G3326 them, ^G846 and be their ^G846 God. ^G2316

⁴ And ^G2532 God ^G2316 shall wipe away ^G1813 all ^G3956 tears ^G1144 from ^G575 their ^G846 eyes; ^G3788 and ^G2532 there shall be ^G2071 no ^G3756 more ^G2089 death, ^G2288 neither ^G3777 sorrow, ^G3997 nor ^G3777 crying, ^G2906 neither ^{G3777 G3756} shall there be ^G2071 any more ^G2089 pain: ^G4192 for ^G3754 the former things ^G4413 are passed away. ^G565

⁵ And ^G2532 he that sat ^G2521 upon ^G1909 the throne ^G2362 said, ^G2036 Behold, ^G2400 I make ^G4160 all things ^G3956 new. ^G2537 And ^G2532 he said ^G3004 unto me, ^G3427 Write: ^G1125 for ^G3754 these ^G3778 words ^G3056 are ^G1526 true ^G228 and ^G2532 faithful. ^G4103

⁶ And ^G2532 he said ^G2036 unto me, ^G3427 It is done. ^G1096 I ^G1473 am ^G1510 Alpha ^G1 and ^G2532 Omega, ^G5598 the beginning ^G746 and ^G2532 the end. ^G5056 I ^G1473 will give ^G1325 unto him that is athirst ^G1372 of ^G1537 the fountain ^G4077 of the water ^G5204 of life ^G2222 freely. ^G1432

⁷ He that overcometh ^G3528 shall inherit ^G2816 all things; ^G3956 and ^G2532 I will be ^G2071 his ^G846 God, ^G2316 and ^G2532 he ^G846 shall be ^G2071 my ^G3427 son. ^G5207

⁸ But ^G1161 the fearful, ^G1169 and ^G2532 unbelieving, ^G571 and ^G2532 the abominable, ^G948 and ^G2532 murderers, ^G5406 and ^G2532 whoremongers, ^G4205 and ^G2532 sorcerers, ^G5332 and ^G2532 idolaters, ^G1496 and ^G2532 all ^G3956 liars, ^G5571 shall have their ^G846 part ^G3313 in ^G1722 the lake ^G3041 which ^G3588 burneth ^G2545 with fire ^G4442 and ^G2532 brimstone: ^G2303 which is ^G3603 the second ^G1208 death. ^G2288

⁹ And ^G2532 there came ^G2064 unto ^G4314 me ^G3165 one of ^G1520 the seven ^G2033 angels ^G32 which ^G3588 had ^G2192 the seven ^G2033 vials ^G5357 full ^G1073 of the seven ^G2033 last ^G2078 plagues, ^G4127 and ^G2532 talked ^G2980 with ^G3326 me, ^G1700 saying, ^G3004 Come hither, ^G1204 I will shew ^G1166 thee ^G4671 the bride, ^G3565 the Lamb's ^G721 wife. ^G1135

¹⁰ And ^G2532 he carried ^G667 me ^G3165 away ^G667 in ^G1722 the spirit ^G4151 to ^G1909 a great ^G3173 and ^G2532 high ^G5308 mountain, ^G3735 and ^G2532 shewed ^G1166 me ^G3427 that great ^G3173 city, ^G4172 the holy ^G40 Jerusalem, ^G2419 descending ^G2597 out of ^G1537 heaven ^G3772 from ^G575 God, ^G2316

¹¹ Having ^G2192 the glory ^G1391 of God: ^G2316 and ^G2532 her ^G846 light ^G5458 was like ^G3664 unto a stone ^G3037 most precious, ^G5093 even like ^G5613 a jasper ^G2393 stone, ^G3037 clear as crystal; ^G2929

¹² And ^G5037 had ^G2192 a wall ^G5038 great ^G3173 and ^G2532 high, ^G5308 and had ^G2192 twelve ^G1427 gates, ^G4440 and ^G2532 at ^G1909 the gates ^G4440 twelve ^G1427 angels, ^G32 and ^G2532 names ^G3686 written thereon, ^G1924 which ^G3739 are ^G2076 the names of the twelve ^G1427 tribes ^G5443 of the children ^G5207 of Israel: ^G2474

¹³ On ^G575 the east ^G395 three ^G5140 gates; ^G4440 on ^G575 the north ^G1005 three ^G5140 gates; ^G4440 on ^G575 the south ^G3558 three ^G5140 gates; ^G4440 and ^G2532 on ^G575 the west ^G1424 three ^G5140 gates. ^G4440

¹⁴ And ^G2532 the wall ^G5038 of the city ^G4172 had ^G2192 twelve ^G1427 foundations, ^G2310 and ^G2532 in ^G1722 them ^G846 the names ^G3686 of the twelve ^G1427 apostles ^G652 of the Lamb. ^G721

¹⁵ And ^G2532 he that talked ^G2980 with ^G3326 me ^G1700 had ^G2192 a golden ^G5552 reed ^G2563 to ^G2443 measure ^G3354 the city, ^G4172 and ^G2532 the gates ^G4440 thereof, ^G846 and ^G2532 the wall ^G5038 thereof. ^G846

¹⁶ And ^G2532 the city ^G4172 lieth ^G2749 foursquare, ^G5068 and ^G2532 the length ^{G3372 G846} is ^G2076 as large ^G5118 as ^{G3745 G2532} the breadth: ^G4114 and ^G2532 he measured ^G3354 the city ^G4172 with the reed, ^{G2563 G1909} twelve ^G1427 thousand ^G5505 furlongs. ^G4712 The length ^G3372 and ^G2532 the breadth ^G4114 and ^G2532 the height ^G5311 of it ^G846 are ^G2076 equal. ^G2470

¹⁷ And ^G2532 he measured ^G3354 the wall ^G5038 thereof, ^G846 an hundred ^G1540 and forty ^G5062 and four ^G5064 cubits, ^G4083 according to the measure ^G3358 of a man, ^G444 that is, ^G3603 of the angel. ^G32

¹⁸ And ^G2532 the building ^G1739 of the wall ^G5038 of it ^G846 was ^G2258 of jasper: ^G2393 and ^G2532 the city ^G4172 was pure ^G2513 gold, ^G5553 like ^G3664 unto clear ^G2513 glass. ^G5194

¹⁹ And ^G2532 the foundations ^G2310 of the wall ^G5038 of the city ^G4172 were garnished with ^G2885 all manner of ^G3956 precious ^G5093 stones. ^G3037 The first ^G4413 foundation ^G2310 was jasper; ^G2393 the second, ^G1208 sapphire; ^G4552 the third, ^G5154 a chalcedony; ^G5472 the fourth, ^G5067 an emerald; ^G4665

²² And ^G2532 I saw ^G1492 no ^G3756 temple ^G3485 therein: ^{G1722 G846} for ^G1063 the Lord ^G2962 God ^G2316 Almighty ^G3841 and ^G2532 the Lamb ^G721 are ^G2076 the temple ^G3485 of it. ^G846

²³ And ^G2532 the city ^G4172 had ^G2192 no ^G3756 need ^G5532 of the sun, ^G2246 neither ^G3761 of the moon, ^G4582 to ^G2443 shine ^G5316 in ^G1722 it: ^G846 for ^G1063 the glory ^G1391 of God ^G2316 did lighten ^G5461 it, ^G846 and ^G2532 the Lamb ^G721 is the light ^G3088 thereof. ^G846

²⁴ And ^G2532 the nations ^G1484 of them which are saved ^G4982 shall walk ^G4043 in ^G1722 the light ^G5457 of it: ^G846 and ^G2532 the kings ^G935 of the earth ^G1093 do bring ^G5342 their ^G846 glory ^G1391 and ^G2532 honour ^G5092 into ^G1519 it. ^G846

²⁵ And ^G2532 the gates ^G4440 of it ^G846 shall ^G2808 not ^G3364 be shut ^G2808 at all ^G3364 by day: ^G2250 for ^G1063 there shall be ^G2071 no ^G3756 night ^G3571 there. ^G1563

¹ And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth are passed away; and the sea is no more.

² And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven of God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband.

³ And I heard a great voice out of the throne saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he shall dwell with them, and they shall be his peoples, and God himself shall be with them, `and be' their God:

⁴ and he shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and death shall be no more; neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain, any more: the first things are passed away.

⁵ And he that sitteth on the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he saith, Write: for these words are faithful and true.

⁶ And he said unto me, They are come to pass. I am the Alpha and the 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 these things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.

⁸ But for the fearful, and unbelieving, and abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their part `shall be' in the lake that burneth with fire and brimstone; which is the second death.

⁹ And there came one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls, who were laden with the seven last plagues; and he spake with me, saying, Come hither, I will show thee the bride, the wife of the Lamb.

¹⁰ And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the holy city Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,

¹¹ having the glory of God: her light was like unto a stone most precious, as it were a jasper stone, clear as crystal:

¹² having a wall great and high; having 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 were three gates; and on the north three gates; and on the south three gates; and on the west three gates.

¹⁴ And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

¹⁶ And the city lieth foursquare, and the length thereof is as great as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs: the length and the breadth and the height thereof are equal.

¹⁷ And he measured the wall thereof, a hundred and forty and four cubits, `according to' the measure of a man, that is, of an angel.

¹⁸ And the building of the wall thereof was jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto pure glass.

¹⁹ The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, emerald;

²² And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God the Almighty, and the Lamb, are the temple thereof.

²³ And the city hath no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine upon it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the lamp thereof `is' the Lamb.

²⁴ And the nations shall walk amidst the light thereof: and the kings of the earth bring their glory into it.

²⁵ And the gates thereof shall in no wise be shut by day (for there shall be no night there):

²⁶ and they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it:

²⁷ and there shall in no wise enter into it anything unclean, or he that maketh an abomination and a lie: but only they that are written in the Lamb's book of life.

⁵ And He who is sitting upon the throne said, `Lo, new I make all things; and He saith to me, `Write, because these words are true and stedfast;'

⁶ and He said to me, `It hath been done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End; I, to him who is thirsting, will give of the fountain of the water of the life freely;

⁸ and to fearful, and unstedfast, and abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all the liars, their part `is' in the lake that is burning with fire and brimstone, which is a second death.'

⁹ And there came unto me one of the seven messengers, who have the seven vials that are full of the seven last plagues, and he spake with me, saying, `Come, I will shew thee the bride of the Lamb -- the wife,'

²¹ And the twelve gates `are' twelve pearls, each several one of the gates was of one pearl; and the broad-place of the city `is' pure gold -- as transparent glass.

²² And a sanctuary I did not see in it, for the Lord God, the Almighty, is its sanctuary, and the Lamb,

⁸ But to the fearful and unbelieving, [and sinners], and those who make themselves abominable, and murderers, and fornicators, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, their part [is] in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone; which is the second death.

¹⁰ And he carried me away in [the] Spirit, [and set me] on a great and high mountain, and shewed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of the heaven from God,

¹ I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth have passed away, and the sea is no more.

² I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, made ready like a bride adorned for her husband.

³ I heard a loud voice out of heaven saying, "Behold, God's dwelling is with people, and he will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God.

⁴ He will wipe away from them every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; neither will there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain, any more. The first things have passed away."

⁵ He who sits on the throne said, "Behold, I am making all things new." He said, "Write, for these words of God are faithful and true."

⁶ He said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give freely to him who is thirsty from the spring of the water of life.

⁷ He who overcomes, I will give him these things. I will be his God, and he will be my son.

⁸ But for the cowardly, unbelieving, sinners, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers,{The word for "sorcerers" here also includes users of potions and drugs.} idolaters, and all liars, their part is in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death."

⁹ One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls, who were loaded with the seven last plagues came, and he spoke with me, saying, "Come here. I will show you the wife, the Lamb's bride."

¹⁰ He carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,

¹¹ having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, as if it was a jasper stone, clear as crystal;

¹² having a great and high wall; having twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels; and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.

¹³ On the east were three gates; and on the north three gates; and on the south three gates; and on the west three gates.

¹⁴ The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them twelve names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb.

¹⁵ He who spoke with me had for a measure, a golden reed, to measure the city, its gates, and its walls.

¹⁶ The city lies foursquare, and its length is as great as its breadth. He measured the city with the reed, Twelve thousand twelve stadia{12,012 stadia = or 2,221 kilometers or 1,380 miles. TR reads 12,000 stadia instead of 12,012 stadia.}. Its length, breadth, and height are equal.

¹⁷ Its wall is one hundred forty-four cubits,{144 cubits is about 65.8 meters or 216 feet} by the measure of a man, that is, of an angel.

¹⁸ The construction of its wall was jasper. The city was pure gold, like pure glass.

¹⁹ The foundations of the city's wall were adorned with all kinds of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire{or, lapis lazuli}; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, emerald;

²⁰ the fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprasus; the eleventh, jacinth; and the twelfth, amethyst.

²¹ The twelve gates were twelve pearls. Each one of the gates was made of one pearl. The street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass.

²² I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God, the Almighty, and the Lamb, are its temple.

²³ The city has no need for the sun, neither of the moon, to shine, for the very glory of God illuminated it, and its lamp is the Lamb.

²⁴ The nations will walk in its light. The kings of the earth bring the glory and honor of the nations into it.

²⁵ Its gates will in no way be shut by day (for there will be no night there),

²⁶ and they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it so that they may enter.

²⁷ There will in no way enter into it anything profane, or one who causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life.

¹ And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were gone; and there was no more sea.

² And I saw the holy town, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, like a bride made beautiful for her husband.

³ And there came to my ears a great voice out of the high seat, saying, See, the Tent of God is with men, and he will make his living-place with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them, and be their God.

⁴ And he will put an end to all their weeping; and there will be no more death, or sorrow, or crying, or pain; for the first things have come to an end.

⁵ And he who is seated on the high seat said, See, I make all things new. And he said, Put it in the book; for these words are certain and true.

⁶ And he said to me, It is done. I am the First and the Last, the start and the end. I will freely give of the fountain of the water of life to him who is in need.

⁷ He who overcomes will have these things for his heritage; and I will be his God, and he will be my son.

⁸ But those who are full of fear and without faith, the unclean and takers of life, those who do the sins of the flesh, and those who make use of evil powers or who give worship to images, and all those who are false, will have their part in the sea of ever-burning fire which is the second death.

⁹ And one of the seven angels who had the seven vessels in which were the seven last punishments, came and said to me, Come here, and see the bride, the Lamb's wife.

¹⁰ And he took me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and let me see the holy town Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,

¹¹ Having the glory of God: and her light was like a stone of great price, a jasper stone, clear as glass:

¹² She had a wall great and high, with twelve doors, and at the doors twelve angels; and names on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.

¹³ And on the east were three doors; and on the north three doors; and on the south three doors; and on the west three doors.

¹⁴ And the wall of the town had twelve bases, and on them the twelve names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb.

¹⁵ And he who was talking with me had a gold measuring-rod to take the measure of the town, and of its doors, and its wall.

¹⁶ And the town is square, as wide as it is long; and he took the measure of the town with the rod, one thousand and five hundred miles: it is equally long and wide and high.

¹⁷ And he took the measure of its wall, one hundred and forty-four cubits, after the measure of a man, that is, of an angel.

¹⁸ And the building of its wall was of jasper, and the town was clear gold, clear as glass.

¹⁹ The bases of the wall of the town had ornaments of all sorts of beautiful stones. The first base was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, emerald;

²⁰ The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprase; the eleventh, jacinth; the twelfth, amethyst.

²¹ And the twelve doors were twelve pearls; every door was made of one pearl; and the street of the town was clear gold, as clear as glass.

²² And I saw no Temple there; because the Lord God, the Ruler of all, and the Lamb are its Temple.

²³ And the town has no need of the sun, or of the moon, to give it light: for the glory of God did make it light, and the light of it is the Lamb.

²⁴ And the nations will go in its light: and the kings of the earth will take their glory into it.

²⁵ And the doors of it will never be shut by day (for there is no night there):

²⁶ And the glory and honour of the nations will come into it:

²⁷ And nothing unclean may come into it, or anyone whose works are cursed or false; but only those whose names are in the Lamb's book of life.
