66:021:011 Having the glory of God: and her light
was like unto a stone
most
precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;
66:021:012 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:
66:021:013 On the east three gates; on the north three
gates; on the
south
three gates; and on the west three gates.
66:021:014 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations,
and in them
the
names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
66:021:015 And he that talked with me had a golden
reed to measure the
city,
and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof.
66:021:016 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.
66:021:017 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.
66:021:018 And the building of the wall of it was
of jasper: and the city
was
pure gold, like unto clear glass.
66:021:019 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;
66:021:020 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.
66:021:021 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.
66:021:022 And I saw no temple therein: for the
Lord God Almighty and the
Lamb
are the temple of it.
66:021:023 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.
66:021:024 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.
66:021:025 And the gates of it shall not be shut at
all by day: for there
shall
be no night there.
66:021:026 And they shall bring the glory and honour
of the nations into
it.
66:021:027 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.
