The New Heaven and the New Earth
1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. 2 *I 95.6% ¦ I, John, TR 1%I also saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down †out of heaven from God 58.6% ¦ from God out of heaven PCK TR 35%out of heaven from God, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from ‡heaven 96.1% ¦ the throne CT 1.3%heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with §them 62.7% ¦ them as their God NA TH TR 24.6%them. 4 He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more, and there will no longer be mourning, crying, or *pain, for 77.1% ¦ pain; CT 14.9%pain, for the former things have passed away.”
5 Then he who sits on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” And he †said 36.9% ¦ said to me ANT PCK RP TR 58.6%said, “Write this down, for these ‡are the trustworthy and true words of God 39.9% ¦ words are true and trustworthy PCK RP TR 41.4% ¦ words are trustworthy and true ANT CT 10.8% ¦ are the true and trustworthy words of God MSS 5.9%are the trustworthy and true words of God.” 6 He also said to me, “§I 74.8% ¦ It is done!

The New Jerusalem
9 Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven final plagues ‡came 99% ¦ came to me TR 1%came and said to me, “Come, I will show yoʋ the §wife, the bride of the Lamb 51.9% ¦ bride of the Lamb, the wife TR 26.2% ¦ bride, the wife of the Lamb ANT CT 12.7%wife, the bride of the Lamb.” 10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain and showed me the *holy city 48.3% ¦ great and holy city MSS 33% ¦ great city, the holy PCK RP TR 16.7%holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God. 11 The city shone with the glory of God, and its radiance was like a very precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal. 12 It had a great, high wall with twelve gates. Twelve angels were at the gates, and on the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel. 13 There were three gates on the east, three gates on the north, three gates on the south, and three gates on the west. 14 The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the †twelve 94% ¦ — TR 4%twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 The angel who spoke to me had a golden ‡measuring 80.1% ¦ — TR 19.9%measuring rod to measure the §city, its gates, and its wall 48.1% ¦ city and its gates PCK 49.4%city, its gates, and its wall. 16 The city is laid out as a square; its length *is the same as 89.6% ¦ and 8.5%is the same as its width. The angel measured the city with the rod and found it to be twelve thousand †and twelve 53% ¦ — ANT CT TR 42.6%and twelve stadia. (The length, width, and height are all equal.) 17 ‡Then he measured its wall and found it to be 59.5% ¦ Its wall was HF 40%Then he measured its wall and found it to be one hundred forty-four cubits according to human measurement, which the angel was using. 18 The wall was made of jasper, while the city was pure gold, like clear glass. 19 The foundations of the city wall were adorned with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation stone was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, agate; 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; and the twelfth, amethyst. 21 The twelve gates were twelve pearls—each one of the gates was made of a single pearl—and the street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass.
22 I did not see a temple in the city, for the Lord God Almighty is its temple, and so is the Lamb. 23 The city has no need for the sun or moon to §shine, for the glory of God itself 39.9% ¦ shine upon it, for the glory of God ANT CT PCK RP TR 60%shine, for the glory of God itself gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. 24 The nations *will walk by its light 88.7% ¦ of those who have been saved will walk in its light—the nations by its light MSS 5.4% ¦ of those who have been saved will walk in its light TR 2%will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring †the glory and honor of the nations to the city to present to God 41.1% ¦ their glory to the city CT 25.1% ¦ their glory and honor to the city ANT PCK TR 19.2%the glory and honor of the nations to the city to present to God. 25 Its gates will never be shut at the end of the day, for there will be no night there. 26 They will bring the glory and honor of the nations ‡to the city, so that they may enter in 46.3% ¦ into the city ANT CT PCK RP TR 53.7%to the city, so that they may enter in. 27 §No unclean thing 97.5% ¦ Nothing that defiles TR 1%No unclean thing *and no one who 45.3% ¦ and nothing that PCK RP TR 44.4% ¦ that MSS 5.2%and no one who causes an abomination or a lie will ever enter it, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life.
