¹⁵ The one who spoke with me had a ^[a]gold measuring ^(A)rod to measure the city, its ^(B)gates, and its wall. ¹⁶ The city is laid out as a square, and its length is as great as the width; and he measured the city with the ^[b]rod, ^[c]twelve thousand stadia; its length, width, and height are equal. ¹⁷ And he measured its wall, ^[d]144 cubits, by ^(C)human ^[e]measurements, which are also ^(D)angelic measurements. ¹⁸ The material of the wall was ^(E)jasper; and the city was ^(F)pure gold, like ^[f]clear ^(G)glass. ^19 (H)The foundation stones of the city wall were decorated with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation stone was ^(I)jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, ^(J)emerald; ²⁰ the fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, ^(K)sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprase; the eleventh, jacinth; the twelfth, amethyst. ²¹ And the twelve ^(L)gates were twelve ^(M)pearls; each one of the gates was a single pearl. And the street of the city was ^(N)pure gold, like transparent ^(O)glass.
