Apocalipsa 21
Cornilescu 1924 - Revised 2010, 2014
21 Apoi am(A) văzut un cer nou şi un pământ nou; pentru că(B) cerul dintâi şi pământul dintâi pieriseră şi marea nu mai era. 2 Şi eu am văzut(C) coborându-se, din cer de la Dumnezeu, cetatea sfântă, Noul Ierusalim, gătită(D) ca o mireasă împodobită pentru bărbatul ei. 3 Şi am auzit un glas tare, care ieşea din scaunul de domnie şi zicea: „Iată cortul(E) lui Dumnezeu cu oamenii! El va locui cu ei şi ei vor fi poporul Lui şi Dumnezeu Însuşi va fi cu ei. El va fi Dumnezeul lor. 4 El(F) va şterge orice lacrimă din ochii lor. Şi(G) moartea nu va mai fi. Nu va mai fi nici(H) tânguire, nici ţipăt, nici durere, pentru că lucrurile dintâi au trecut.” 5 Cel ce(I) şedea pe scaunul de domnie a zis: „Iată(J), Eu fac toate lucrurile noi.” Şi a adăugat: „Scrie, fiindcă aceste(K) cuvinte sunt vrednice de crezut şi adevărate”. 6 Apoi mi-a zis: „S-a(L) isprăvit! Eu(M) sunt Alfa şi Omega, Începutul şi Sfârşitul. Celui ce îi este sete, îi voi(N) da să bea fără plată din izvorul apei vieţii. 7 Cel ce va birui va moşteni aceste lucruri. Eu(O) voi fi Dumnezeul lui şi el va fi fiul Meu. 8 Dar(P) cât despre fricoşi, necredincioşi, scârboşi, ucigaşi, curvari, vrăjitori, închinătorii la idoli şi toţi mincinoşii, partea lor este în iazul(Q) care arde cu foc şi cu pucioasă, adică moartea a doua.” 9 Apoi unul din cei(R) şapte îngeri, care ţineau cele şapte potire pline cu cele din urmă şapte urgii, a venit şi a vorbit cu mine şi mi-a zis: „Vino să-ţi arăt mireasa(S), nevasta Mielului!” 10 Şi m-a dus, în(T) Duhul, pe un munte mare şi înalt. Şi mi-a arătat cetatea(U) sfântă, Ierusalimul, care se pogora din cer de la Dumnezeu, 11 având(V) slava lui Dumnezeu. Lumina ei era ca o piatră prea scumpă, ca o piatră de iaspis, străvezie ca cristalul. 12 Era înconjurată cu un zid mare şi înalt. Avea douăsprezece(W) porţi şi la porţi, doisprezece îngeri. Şi pe ele erau scrise nişte nume: numele celor douăsprezece seminţii ale fiilor lui Israel. 13 Spre(X) răsărit erau trei porţi; spre miazănoapte, trei porţi; spre miazăzi, trei porţi şi spre apus, trei porţi. 14 Zidul cetăţii avea douăsprezece temelii şi pe ele(Y) erau cele douăsprezece nume ale celor doisprezece apostoli ai Mielului. 15 Îngerul, care vorbea cu mine, avea(Z) ca măsurătoare o trestie de aur, ca să măsoare cetatea, porţile şi zidul ei. 16 Cetatea era în patru colţuri şi lungimea ei era cât lărgimea. A măsurat cetatea cu trestia şi a găsit aproape douăsprezece mii de prăjini[a]. Lungimea, lărgimea şi înălţimea erau deopotrivă. 17 I-a măsurat şi zidul, şi a găsit o sută patruzeci şi patru de coţi, după măsura oamenilor, căci cu măsura aceasta măsura îngerul. 18 Zidul era zidit de iaspis şi cetatea era de aur curat, ca sticla curată. 19 Temeliile(AA) zidului cetăţii erau împodobite cu pietre scumpe de tot felul: cea dintâi temelie era de iaspis; a doua, de safir; a treia, de halchedon; a patra, de smarald; 20 a cincea, de sardonix; a şasea, de a şaptea, de hrisolit; a opta, de beril; a noua, de topaz; a zecea, de hrisopraz; a unsprezecea, de iacint; a douăsprezecea, de ametist. 21 Cele douăsprezece porţi erau douăsprezece mărgăritare. Fiecare poartă era dintr-un singur mărgăritar. Uliţa cetăţii(AB) era de aur curat, ca sticla străvezie. 22 În cetate n-am văzut niciun(AC) Templu, pentru că Domnul Dumnezeu, Cel Atotputernic, ca şi Mielul sunt Templul ei. 23 Cetatea(AD) n-are trebuinţă nici de soare, nici de lună ca s-o lumineze, căci o luminează slava lui Dumnezeu şi făclia ei este Mielul. 24 Neamurile(AE) vor umbla în lumina ei şi împăraţii pământului îşi vor aduce slava şi cinstea lor în ea. 25 Porţile(AF) ei nu se vor închide ziua, fiindcă în ea nu va mai fi(AG) noapte. 26 În ea vor aduce(AH) slava şi cinstea neamurilor. 27 Nimic întinat nu(AI) va intra în ea, nimeni care trăieşte în spurcăciune şi în minciună, ci numai cei scrişi în cartea(AJ) vieţii Mielului.

The New Heaven and the New Earth
21 Then I saw (A)a new heaven and a new earth, for (B)the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. 2 And I saw (C)the holy city, (D)new Jerusalem, (E)coming down out of heaven from God, (F)prepared (G)as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, (H)the dwelling place[a] of God is with man. He will (I)dwell with them, and they will be his people,[b] and God himself will be with them as their God.[c] 4 (J)He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and (K)death shall be no more, (L)neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”
5 And (M)he who was seated on the throne said, “Behold, I (N)am making all things new.” Also he said, “Write this down, for (O)these words are trustworthy and true.” 6 And he said to me, (P)“It is done! (Q)I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. (R)To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment. 7 (S)The one who conquers will have this heritage, and (T)I will be his God and (U)he will be my son. 8 (V)But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, (W)their portion will be in (X)the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is (Y)the second death.”
The New Jerusalem
9 Then came (Z)one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of (AA)the seven last plagues and spoke to me, saying, “Come, I will show you (AB)the Bride, the wife of the Lamb.” 10 And (AC)he carried me away in the Spirit to (AD)a great, high mountain, and showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God, 11 (AE)having the glory of God, (AF)its radiance (AG)like a most rare jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal. 12 It had a great, high wall, (AH)with twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and on the gates the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel were inscribed— 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 (AI)foundations, and (AJ)on them were the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 And the one who spoke with me (AK)had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city and its gates and walls. 16 The city lies foursquare, its length the same as its width. And he measured the city with his rod, 12,000 stadia.[d] Its length and width and height are equal. 17 He also measured its wall, 144 cubits[e] by (AL)human measurement, which is also (AM)an angel's measurement. 18 The wall was built of (AN)jasper, while the city was pure gold, like (AO)clear glass. 19 (AP)The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with every kind of jewel. The first was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald, 20 the fifth onyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst. 21 And the twelve gates were twelve pearls, each of the gates made of a single pearl, and (AQ)the street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass.
22 And (AR)I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. 23 And the city (AS)has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for (AT)the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. 24 By its light (AU)will the nations walk, and the kings of the earth (AV)will bring their glory into it, 25 and (AW)its gates will never be shut by day—and (AX)there will be no night there. 26 They will bring into it the glory and the honor of the nations. 27 But (AY)nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who does what is detestable or false, but only those who are written in the Lamb's (AZ)book of life.

A New Heaven and a New Earth
21 Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,”[a](A) for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away,(B) and there was no longer any sea. 2 I saw the Holy City,(C) the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,(D) prepared as a bride(E) beautifully dressed for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them.(F) They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God.(G) 4 ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes.(H) There will be no more death’[b](I) or mourning or crying or pain,(J) for the old order of things has passed away.”(K)
5 He who was seated on the throne(L) said, “I am making everything new!”(M) Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”(N)
6 He said to me: “It is done.(O) I am the Alpha and the Omega,(P) the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost(Q) from the spring of the water of life.(R) 7 Those who are victorious(S) will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children.(T) 8 But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars(U)—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur.(V) This is the second death.”(W)
The New Jerusalem, the Bride of the Lamb
9 One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues(X) came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the bride,(Y) the wife of the Lamb.” 10 And he carried me away(Z) in the Spirit(AA) to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God.(AB) 11 It shone with the glory of God,(AC) and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper,(AD) clear as crystal.(AE) 12 It had a great, high wall with twelve gates,(AF) and with twelve angels at the gates. On the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel.(AG) 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,(AH) and on them were the names of the twelve apostles(AI) of the Lamb.
15 The angel who talked with me had a measuring rod(AJ) of gold to measure the city, its gates(AK) and its walls. 16 The city was laid out like a square, as long as it was wide. He measured the city with the rod and found it to be 12,000 stadia[c] in length, and as wide and high as it is long. 17 The angel measured the wall using human(AL) measurement, and it was 144 cubits[d] thick.[e] 18 The wall was made of jasper,(AM) and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass.(AN) 19 The foundations of the city walls were decorated with every kind of precious stone.(AO) The first foundation was jasper,(AP) the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald, 20 the fifth onyx, the sixth ruby,(AQ) the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth turquoise, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.[f] 21 The twelve gates(AR) were twelve pearls,(AS) each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of gold, as pure as transparent glass.(AT)
22 I did not see a temple(AU) in the city, because the Lord God Almighty(AV) and the Lamb(AW) are its temple. 23 The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the glory of God(AX) gives it light,(AY) and the Lamb(AZ) is its lamp. 24 The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it.(BA) 25 On no day will its gates(BB) ever be shut,(BC) for there will be no night there.(BD) 26 The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it.(BE) 27 Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful,(BF) but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life.(BG)
