启示录 21:1-22:5
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
新天新地
21 接着我看见一个新天新地,因为以前的天地都消逝了,海洋也不复存在了。 2 我又看见圣城新耶路撒冷从天上的上帝那里降下,预备好了,像妆饰整齐等候新郎的新娘。 3 我听见从宝座中传来响亮的声音说:“看啊!上帝的居所设立在人间,祂要与人同住。他们要成为祂的子民,上帝要亲自与他们同在,做他们的上帝。 4 上帝要擦干他们所有的眼泪,再没有死亡、忧伤、哭泣和痛苦,因为以前的事都已成过去。”
5 坐在宝座上的那位对我说:“看啊!我已经将一切都更新了。你要将这一切记录下来,因为这些话真实可信。” 6 祂又对我说:“一切都成了!我是阿拉法,我是俄梅加;我是开始,我是终结。我要将生命泉的水白白赐给口渴的人。 7 得胜者必承受这一切福分,我要做他的上帝,他要做我的儿子。 8 至于那些胆怯的、不信的、行为可憎的、杀人的、淫乱的、行邪术的、拜偶像的和所有说谎的,他们的结局是被丢进硫磺火湖里,这就是第二次的死。”
新耶路撒冷
9 七位天使手里拿着盛满最后七灾的七个碗,其中有一位对我说:“你来,我要将新娘,就是羔羊的妻子指给你看。” 10 我被圣灵感动,天使带着我到一座高大的山上,将从天上的上帝那里降下的圣城新耶路撒冷指给我看。 11 城中充满上帝的荣光,璀璨如贵重的宝石,晶莹如碧玉。 12-13 城墙高大,有十二个城门,东、北、南、西每面三个门,每个城门都有一位天使把守,门上写着以色列十二支派的名字。 14 城墙共有十二块基石,基石上刻着羔羊的十二位使徒的名字。
15 那和我说话的天使拿了一根金量秆要丈量圣城、城墙和城门。 16 圣城是正方形的,长宽相等。天使用量秆丈量那城,长、宽、高都是两千二百公里[a]。 17 他又丈量了城墙,按人的尺寸来算是六十五米[b]厚。 18 城墙是用碧玉砌成的,城本身是用纯金造的,跟玻璃一样明净。 19 城墙的基石用各种宝石装饰:第一块基石是碧玉,第二块是蓝宝石,第三块是绿玛瑙,第四块是绿宝石, 20 第五块是红玛瑙,第六块是红宝石,第七块是橄榄石,第八块是水苍玉,第九块是黄宝石,第十块是翡翠,第十一块是紫玛瑙,第十二块是紫晶。
21 十二个城门是用十二颗珍珠造的,每一个城门都是一颗珍珠,城中的街道是纯金的,好像透明的玻璃一样。
22 我看见城中没有圣殿,因为全能的主上帝和羔羊就是圣城的殿。 23 圣城里不需要太阳和月亮的光照耀,因为有上帝的荣光照耀,羔羊就是圣城的灯。 24 万民要在圣城的光中行走,地上的君王也要将他们的荣耀带进圣城。 25 城门整天都开着,那里没有黑夜。 26 人们将列国的荣耀和尊贵带进圣城。 27 所有污秽的、做可憎之事的、撒谎的都不得进入圣城。唯有名字记录在羔羊的生命册上的人才有资格进去。
22 天使让我看城内街道当中一道流淌着生命水的河,清澈如水晶,从上帝和羔羊的宝座那里流出。 2 河两岸有结十二种果子的生命树,每个月都结果子,叶子能医治万民。 3 再也没有咒诅,因为城里有上帝和羔羊的宝座,祂的奴仆都要事奉祂。 4 他们必见上帝的面,上帝的名字必印在他们的额上。 5 再没有黑夜,也不需要灯光和阳光,因为主上帝必做他们的光。他们要执掌王权直到永永远远。
Revelation 21:1-22:5
King James Version
21 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
9 And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb's wife.
10 And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
11 Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;
12 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:
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 city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof.
16 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.
17 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.
18 And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass.
19 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;
20 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.
21 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.
22 And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.
23 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.
24 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.
25 And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.
26 And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it.
27 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.
22 And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
3 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:
4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
5 And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.
