A New Heaven and a New Earth
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth,[fn] for the first heaven and earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. 2 I saw the holy city, [the] new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying:
“Behold, the dwelling place of God [is] with man,
and He will dwell with them.
They will be His people,
and God Himself will be with them [as] their God.[fn]
4He will wipe away every tear from their eyes,’[fn]
and there will be no more death
[or] mourning [or] crying [or] pain
for the former things have passed away.”
5And the [One] seated on the throne said,“Behold, I make all things new.” Then He said,“Write this down, for these words are faithful and true.” 6 And He told me,“It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give freely from the spring of the water of life. 7 The [one who] overcomes will inherit all things, and I will be his God, and he will be My son.
8But to [the] cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and sexually immoral and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their place [will be] in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. This is the second death.”
9The New Jerusalem
Then one of the seven angels with the seven bowls full of the seven final plagues came and said to me“Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.”
10And he carried me away in [the] Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the holy city [of] Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God, 11 shining with the glory of God. Its radiance [was] like a most precious jewel, like a jasper as clear as crystal. 12 [The city] had a great and high wall with twelve gates vvv inscribed with the names of the twelve tribes of Israel, and twelve angels at the gates. 13 [There were] three gates on [the] east, three on [the] north, three on [the] south, and three on [the] west. 14 The wall of the city had twelve foundations vvv [bearing] [the] names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15The [angel who] spoke with me had a golden measuring rod to measure the city and its gates and walls. 16 The city lies foursquare, with [its] width the same as its length. And he measured the city with the rod, [ and all its dimensions ] were equal — 12,000 {} stadia[fn] in length and width and height 17 And he measured its wall [to be] 144 {} cubits,[fn] by the human measure the angel was [using].
18The wall was made of jasper, and the city [itself] of pure gold, as pure as glass. 19 The foundations of the city walls were adorned with every kind of precious stone:
And the twelve gates [were] twelve pearls, [with] each gate vvv consisting of a single pearl. The main street of the city [was] pure gold, as clear as glass.
22[But] I saw no temple in [the city], because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. 23 And the city has no need of sun [or] moon to shine on it, because the glory of God illuminates [the city], and the Lamb [is] its lamp. 24 By its light the nations will walk, and into it the kings of the earth will bring their glory.[fn] 25 Its gates vvv vvv will never be shut at the end of the day, because there will be no night there.
26And into [the city] will be brought the glory and honor of the nations. 27 [But] vvv vvv nothing unclean will ever enter it, [nor] anyone who practices an abomination [or] a lie, but only those whose [names] are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.
21:1 See Isaiah 65:17 and Isaiah 66:22 (see also LXX).
21:3 SBL, NE, WH, and BYZ God Himself will be with them.
21:4 Isaiah 25:8.
21:16 12,000 stadia is approximately 1,380 miles or 2,220 kilometers.
21:17 144 cubits is approximately 216 feet or 65.8 meters. The measure could indicate either height or thickness.
21:24 BYZ and TR include and honor.
