9 And there came vnto me one of the seuen Angels, which had the seuen vials full of the seuen last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the Bride, the Lambes wife.
10 And he caried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountaine, and shewed me that great citie, the holy Hierusalem, descending out of heauen from God,
11 Hauing the glory of God: and her light was like vnto a stone most precious; euen like a iasper stone, cleare as christal,
12 And had a wall great and high, and had twelue gates, and at the gates twelue Angels, & names written thereon, which are the names of the twelue tribes of the children of Israel.
13 On the East three gates, on the North three gates, on the South three gates, and on the West three gates.
14 And the wall of the citie had twelue foundations, and in them the names of the twelue Apostles of the Lambe.
15 And hee that talked with mee, had a golden reede to measure the citie, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof.
16 And the city lieth foure square, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelue thousand furlongs: the length, and the breadth, and the height of it are equall.
17 And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred, and fourtie, and foure cubites, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the Angel.
18 And the building of the wall of it was of Iasper, and the city was pure gold, like vnto cleare glasse.
19 And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all maner of precious stones. The first foundation was Iasper, the second Saphir, the third a Chalcedony, the fourth an Emerald,
20 The fift Sardonix, the sixt Sardius, the seuenth Chrysolite, the eight Beryl, the ninth a Topas, the tenth a Chrysoprasus, the eleuenth a Iacinct, the twelfth an Amethyst.
21 And the twelue gates were twelue pearles, euery seuerall gate was of one pearle, and the streete of the city was pure golde, as it were transparent glasse.
22 And I saw no Temple therein: For the Lord God Almightie, and the Lambe, are the Temple of it.
23 And the citie had no need of the Sunne, neither of the Moone to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lambe is the light thereof.
24 And the nations of them which are saued, shall walke in the light of it: and the kings of the earth doe bring their glory and honour into it.
25 And the gates of it shall not bee shut at all by day: for there shall bee no night there.
26 And they shall bring the glorie and honour of the nations into it.
27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoeuer worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lambes booke of life.
