1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were gone; and there was no more sea.
2 And I saw the holy town, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, like a bride made beautiful for her husband.
3 And there came to my ears a great voice out of the high seat, saying, See, the Tent of God is with men, and he will make his living-place with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them, and be their God.
4 And he will put an end to all their weeping; and there will be no more death, or sorrow, or crying, or pain; for the first things have come to an end.
5 And he who is seated on the high seat said, See, I make all things new. And he said, Put it in the book; for these words are certain and true.
6 And he said to me, It is done. I am the First and the Last, the start and the end. I will freely give of the fountain of the water of life to him who is in need.
7 He who overcomes will have these things for his heritage; and I will be his God, and he will be my son.
8 But those who are full of fear and without faith, the unclean and takers of life, those who do the sins of the flesh, and those who make use of evil powers or who give worship to images, and all those who are false, will have their part in the sea of ever-burning fire which is the second death.
9 And one of the seven angels who had the seven vessels in which were the seven last punishments, came and said to me, Come here, and see the bride, the Lamb's wife.
10 And he took me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and let me see the holy town Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,
11 Having the glory of God: and her light was like a stone of great price, a jasper stone, clear as glass:
12 She had a wall great and high, with twelve doors, and at the doors twelve angels; and names on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
13 And on the east were three doors; and on the north three doors; and on the south three doors; and on the west three doors.
14 And the wall of the town had twelve bases, and on them the twelve names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb.
15 And he who was talking with me had a gold measuring-rod to take the measure of the town, and of its doors, and its wall.
16 And the town is square, as wide as it is long; and he took the measure of the town with the rod, one thousand and five hundred miles: it is equally long and wide and high.
17 And he took the measure of its wall, one hundred and forty-four cubits, after the measure of a man, that is, of an angel.
18 And the building of its wall was of jasper, and the town was clear gold, clear as glass.
19 The bases of the wall of the town had ornaments of all sorts of beautiful stones. The first base was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, emerald;
20 The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprase; the eleventh, jacinth; the twelfth, amethyst.
21 And the twelve doors were twelve pearls; every door was made of one pearl; and the street of the town was clear gold, as clear as glass.
22 And I saw no Temple there; because the Lord God, the Ruler of all, and the Lamb are its Temple.
23 And the town has no need of the sun, or of the moon, to give it light: for the glory of God did make it light, and the light of it is the Lamb.
24 And the nations will go in its light: and the kings of the earth will take their glory into it.
25 And the doors of it will never be shut by day (for there is no night there):
26 And the glory and honour of the nations will come into it:
27 And nothing unclean may come into it, or anyone whose works are cursed or false; but only those whose names are in the Lamb's book of life.
1 我又看见一个新天新地， 因为先前的天地都过去了， 海也再没有了。
2 我又看见圣城， 新耶路撒冷， 从天上由 神那里降下来， 预备好了， 好像打扮整齐等候丈夫的新娘。
3 我听见有大声音从宝座那里发出来， 说： "看哪！ 神的帐幕在人间， 他要与人同住， 他们要作他的子民。 神要亲自与他们同在， 要作他们的 神。
4 他要抹去他们的一切眼泪， 不再有死亡， 也不再有悲哀、哭号、痛苦， 因为先前的事都过去了。"
5 坐在宝座上的那一位说： "看哪， 我把一切都更新了！ "又说： "你要写下来， 因为这些话是可信的、真实的。"
6 他又对我说： "成了！ 我是阿拉法， 是俄梅格； 我是创始的， 也是成终的。我要把生命的泉水， 白白赐给口渴的人喝。
7 得胜的， 必要承受这些福分。我要作他的 神， 他要作我的儿子。
8 只是那些胆怯的、不信的、可憎的、杀人的、淫乱的、行邪术的、拜偶像的和所有说谎的人， 他们的分是在烧着硫磺的火湖里。这就是第二次的死。"
9 拿着七个盛满着末后七灾的碗的七位天使中， 有一位走来对我说： "你来！ 我要把新娘， 就是羊羔的妻子， 指示你。"
10 我在灵里被那天使带到一座高大的山上， 他把从天上由 神那里降下来的圣城耶路撒冷指示我。
11 这城有 神的荣耀， 城的光辉好像极贵的宝石， 又像晶莹的碧玉。
12 有高大的城墙， 有十二个门， 门口有十二位天使， 门上写着以色列十二支派的名字。
13 东边有三个门， 南边有三个门， 西边有三个门， 北边有三个门。
14 城墙有十二座根基， 根基上有羊羔的十二使徒的名字。
15 那对我说话的天使拿着一根金的芦苇， 要量那城、城门和城墙。
16 城是四方的， 长宽都一样。天使用芦苇量那城， 共有二千四百公里（"二千四百公里"原文作"一万二千司他町"）， 城的长、宽、高都一样；
17 又量了城墙， 约有六十公尺（"六十公尺"原文作"一百四十四肘"）。天使用的标准， 就是人量度的标准。
18 城墙是用碧玉做的， 城是用明净像玻璃的纯金做的。
19 城墙的根基是用各样宝石装饰的： 第一座根基是碧玉， 第二座是蓝宝石， 第三座是玛瑙， 第四座是绿宝石，
20 第五座是红玛瑙， 第六座是红宝石， 第七座是黄璧玺， 第八座是水苍玉， 第九座是红璧玺， 第十座是翡翠， 第十一座是紫玛瑙， 第十二座是紫晶。
21 十二个门是十二颗珍珠， 每一个门是用一颗珍珠做的。城里的街道是纯金的， 好像透明的玻璃。
22 我没有看见城里有圣所， 因为主全能的 神和羊羔就是城的圣所。
23 这城不需要日月照明， 因为有 神的荣耀照明， 而羊羔就是城的灯。
24 列国要借着城的光行走， 地上的众王要把他们的荣华带到这城来。
25 城门白天决不关闭。在那里并没有黑夜。
26 列国的荣华尊贵都被带到这城。
27 所有不洁净的、行可憎的和说谎的， 决不可以进入这城。只有名字记在羊羔生命册上的才可以进去。
