Revelation:21:1-22
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth :
for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away ;
and the sea is no more .
*
And I saw the holy city ,
new Jerusalem ,
coming down out of heaven from God ,
made ready as a bride adorned for her husband .
*
And I heard a great voice out of the throne saying ,
Look ,
the tabernacle of God is with men ,
and he will dwell with them ,
and they will be his peoples ,
and God himself with them ,
he will be their God :
*
and he will wipe away every tear from their eyes ;
and death will be no more ;
neither will there be mourning ,
nor crying ,
nor pain ,
anymore :
because the first things are passed away .
*
And he who sits on the throne said ,
Look ,
I make all things new .
And he says ,
Write :
for these words are faithful and true .
*
And he said to me ,
They have come to pass .
I am the Alpha and the Omega ,
the beginning and the end .
I will give to him who is thirsty of the fountain of the water of life freely .
*
He who overcomes will inherit these things ;
and I will be his God ,
and he will be my son .
*
But for the fearful ,
and unbelieving ,
and those having been disgusting ,
and murderers ,
and fornicators ,
and sorcerers ,
and idolaters ,
and all liars ,
their part [
will be ]
in the lake that burns with fire and brimstone ;
which is the second death .
*
And there came one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls ,
who were laden with the seven last plagues ;
and he spoke with me ,
saying ,
Come here ,
I will show you the bride ,
the wife of the Lamb .
*
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 ,
*
having the glory of God :
her light was like a most precious stone ,
as it were a jasper stone ,
clear as crystal :
*
having a wall great and high ;
having twelve gates ,
and at the gates twelve angels ;
and names written on them ,
which are the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel :
*
on the east were three gates ;
and on the north three gates ;
and on the south three gates ;
and on the west three gates .
*
And the wall of the city had twelve foundations ,
and on them twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb .
*
And he who spoke with me had for a measure a golden reed to measure the city ,
and her gates ,
and her wall .
*
And the city lies foursquare ,
and her length is also as great as the width :
and he measured the city with the reed ,
1 ,
380 miles :
her length and width and height are equal .
*
And he measured her wall ,
a hundred and forty and four cubits , [
according to ]
the measure of a man ,
that is ,
of an angel .
*
And the building of her wall was jasper :
and the city was pure gold ,
like pure glass .
*
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 ;
*
the fifth ,
sardonyx ;
the sixth ,
sardius ;
the seventh ,
chrysolite ;
the eighth ,
beryl ;
the ninth ,
topaz ;
the tenth ,
chrysoprase ;
the eleventh ,
jacinth ;
the twelfth ,
amethyst .
*
And the twelve gates were twelve pearls ;
each one of the several gates was of one pearl :
and the street of the city was pure gold ,
as it were transparent glass .
*
And I saw no temple in her :
for Yahweh ,
the God of hosts ,
and the Lamb ,
are her temple .
