Revelation Chapter 21 (Index)

001  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.

002  And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

003  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.

004  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.

005  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.

006  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.

007  He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.

008  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.

009  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.

010  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,

011  Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;

012  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:

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

014  And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

015  And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof.

016  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.

017  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.

018  And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass.

019  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;

020  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.

021  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.

022  And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.

023  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.

024  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.

025  And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.

026  And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it.

027  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.
