1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea did not exist
2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying,
4 And he will wipe away every tear from their eyes,
5 And the one seated on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all
6 And he said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the one who is thirsty I will give
7 The one who conquers will inherit these
8 But
9 And one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and spoke with me, saying, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.”
10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and lofty mountain, and showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,
11 that has the glory of God. Its radiance
12 It has
13 on the east, 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 has twelve foundations, and on them
15 And the one who spoke with me was holding a golden measuring rod in order that he could measure the city and its gates and its wall.

17 And he measured its wall, one hundred forty-four cubits
18 And the material of its wall
19 The foundations of the wall of the city are adorned with every kind of precious stone: the first foundation jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald,
20 the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst.
21 And the twelve gates
22 And I did not see a temple in it, for the Lord God All-Powerful is its temple, and the Lamb.
23 And the city has no need of the sun or of the moon, that they shine on it, for the glory of God illuminates it, and its lamp
24 And the nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it.
25 And its gates will never be shut by day (for there will be no night there),
26 and they will bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it.
27 And every unclean person and the one who practices detestable things and falsehood will never enter into it, except those who are written in the book of life of the Lamb.
