RE-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.

RE-21:2  And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming

down from God out

of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

RE-21:3  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.

RE-21:4  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.

RE-21:5  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.

RE-21:6  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.

RE-21:7  He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will

be his God,

and he shall be my son.

RE-21:8  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.

RE-21:9  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 show thee the bride, the Lamb's wife.

RE-21:10  And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and

high mountain,

and showed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending

out of heaven

from God,

RE-21:11  Having the glory of God: and her light [was] like unto

a stone most

precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;

RE-21:12  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:

RE-21:13  On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on

the south three

gates; and on the west three gates.

RE-21:14  And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and

in them the

names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

RE-21:15  And he that talked with me had a golden reed to

measure the city, and

the gates thereof, and the wall thereof.

RE-21:16  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.

RE-21:17  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.

RE-21:18  And the building of the wall of it was [of] jasper:

and the city

[was] pure gold, like unto clear glass.

RE-21:19  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;

RE-21:20  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.

RE-21:21  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.

RE-21:22  And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty

and the Lamb

are the temple of it.

RE-21:23  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.

RE-21:24  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.

RE-21:25  And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day:

for there shall

be no night there.

RE-21:26  And they shall bring the glory and honour of the

nations into it.

RE-21:27  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.
