Revelation 21
Jubilee Bible 2000
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, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of the heaven, prepared of God as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold the tabernacle of God 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 death shall be no more neither shall there be any more sorrow nor crying nor pain; for the former things are passed away.
5 And he that was seated upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are faithful and true.
6 And he said unto me, It is done. I AM the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is thirsty of the fountain of the water of life freely.
7 He that overcomes 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 fornicators and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.
9 ¶ And there came unto me one of the seven angels who had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues and talked with me, saying, Come here, I will show thee the bride, the Lamb’s wife.
10 And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain and showed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of the heaven from and with God,
11 having the clarity of God; and her light was like unto a most precious stone, even like a jasper stone, shining like crystal.
12 And it had a wall great and high, with twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the sons 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 its gates and its wall.
16 And the city lies foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth; and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs; and the length and the breadth and the height of it are equal.
17 And he measured its wall, a hundred and forty-four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel.
18 And the material of its wall was jasper; but the city was of pure gold, like unto clean 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, emerald;
20 the fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprasus; the eleventh, jacinth; the twelfth, amethyst.
21 And the twelve gates are twelve pearls; in each one, one; each gate was of one pearl; and the street of the city was pure gold, as shining glass.
22 And I saw no temple in her; for the Lord God Almighty is her temple, and the Lamb.
23 And the city had no need of the sun neither of the moon to shine in her, for the clarity of God has illuminated it, and the Lamb is its lamp.
24 And the Gentiles that have been saved shall walk in the light of her; and the kings of the earth shall bring their glory and honour into her.
25 And her gates shall never be shut by day; for there shall be no night there.
26 And they shall bring the glory and the honour of the Gentiles into it.
27 And there shall in no wise enter into it anything unclean or that works abomination or makes a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
Revelation 21
Maori Bible
21 A i kite ahau i te rangi hou, i te whenua hou: kua pahemo hoki te rangi tuatahi, me te whenua tuatahi; a kahore atu he moana.
2 I kite ano ahau i te pa tapu, i Hiruharama hou, e heke iho ana i te rangi i te Atua, rite rawa, ano he wahine marena hou kua oti te whakapaipai mo tana tane.
3 I rongo ano ahau i te reo nui i te rangi e mea ana, Na, kei nga tangata te tapenakara o te Atua, a e noho ia ki a ratou, ko ratou hoki hei iwi mana, ko te Atua nei ano hei a ratou, hei Atua mo ratou:
4 Ka murua hoki e ia nga roimata katoa i o ratou kanohi; a kore ake he mate; kahore hoki he aue, kahore he tangi, kahore he mamae, i nga wa i muri nei: kua pahemo atu hoki nga mea o mua.
5 A ka korero mai tera e noho ra i runga i te torona, Na, ka hanga houtia e ahau nga mea katoa. I mea mai ano ia ki ahau, Tuhituhia: no te mea he pono, he tika enei kupu.
6 I mea mai ano ia ki ahau, Kua oti enei mea. Ko ahau te Arepa, te Omeka, te timatanga, te whakamutunga. Ka hoatu noa e ahau ki te tangata matewai he wai i te puna o te wai o te ora.
7 Ko te tangata i a ia te wikitoria, e whiwhi ia ki enei mea; ko ahau hoki hei Atua mona, ko ia hei tama maku.
8 Na, ko te hunga wehi, ko te hunga whakateka, ko te hunga whakarihariha, ko nga kaikohuru, ko te hunga moepuku, ko te hunga makutu, ko te hunga karakia ki te whakapakoko, ko te hunga teka katoa, ko te wahi mo ratou kei te roto e ka ana i te ahi, i te whanariki: ko te matenga tuarua tenei.
9 Na ka haere mai ki ahau tetahi o nga anahera e whitu, kei a ratou nei nga oko e whitu e ki ana i nga whiu whakamutunga e whitu; ka ki mai ki ahau, ka mea, Haere mai, maku e whakakite ki a koe te wahine marena hou, te wahine a te Reme.
10 Na haria ana ahau e ia i roto i te Wairua ki tetahi maunga nui, tiketike, a ka whakakitea mai ki ahau te pa tapu, a Hiruharama, e heke iho ana i te rangi i te Atua.
11 Kei taua pa ano te kororia o te Atua: rite tonu tona marama ki to te kohatu utu nui whakaharahara, ano he kohatu hahapa, marama tonu me he karaihe;
12 He taiepa kohatu ano tona, he mea nui, tiketike, tekau ma rua nga tatau, kotahi tekau ma rua ano nga anahera i nga tatau, tuhituhi rawa ki te ingoa, ara ki nga ingoa o nga hapu kotahi tekau ma rua o nga tama a Iharaira:
13 I te rawhiti e toru nga tatau; i te hauraro e toru nga tatau; i te tonga e toru nga tatau; i te hauauru e toru nga tatau.
14 A ko te taiepa o te pa, kotahi tekau ma rua ona turanga, kei aua turanga ano nga ingoa o nga apotoro a te Reme, kotahi tekau ma rua.
15 Na, ko tera i korero ra ki ahau, he kakaho koura tana hei whanganga mana i te pa, i ona tatau, i tona taiepa kohatu.
16 Na, ko te takoto o te pa, e wha nga poti, tona roa rite tonu ki tona whanui: na ka whangangatia e ia te pa ki te kakaho, kotahi tekau ma rua mano nga paronga. Ko tona roa, ko te whanui, ko te ikeike, rite tonu.
17 Na ka whangangatia ano e ia tona taiepa, kotahi rau e wha tekau ma wha nga whatianga, he ruri na te tangata, ara na te anahera.
18 Na ko te mea i hanga ai tona taiepa he hahapa: he koura parakore ano hoki te pa, rite tonu ki te karaihe marama.
19 Ko nga turanga o te taiepa o te pa he mea whakapaipai ki nga kohatu utu nui katoa. Ko te turanga tuatahi he hahapa; ko te tuarua, he hapaira; ko te tuatoru, he karakeroni; ko te tuawha, he emerara;
20 Ko te tuarima, he hararonika; ko te tuaono, he harariu; ko te tuawhitu, he karihorita; ko te tuawaru, he perira; ko te tuaiwa, he topaha; ko te ngahauru, he karihoparaha; ko te tekau ma tahi, he hakiniti; ko te tekau ma rua, he ametihita.
21 Na, ko nga tatau kotahi tekau ma rua, kotahi tekau ma rua peara: ko tenei tatau, ko tenei tatau, kotahi tonu peara: ko te huarahi hoki o te pa he koura parakore, ko ia ano kei te karaihe piata.
22 Na kihai ahau i kite i tetahi whare tapu i reira: ko te Ariki hoki, ko te Atua Kaha Rawa raua ko te Reme te whare tapu o reira.
23 Kahore hoki taua pa i mea ki te ra mona, ki te marama ranei, hei whiti ki roto: e whakamaramatia ana hoki a reira e te kororia o te Atua, ko te Reme hoki tona mamara.
24 E haere hoki nga tauiwi i waenganui o tona marama: a e kawea mai ano hoki e nga kingi o te ao to ratou kororia ki reira.
25 E kore hoki ona tatau e tutakina i te awatea; kore ake hoki o reira po:
26 A e kawea mai hoki te kororia me te honore o nga tauiwi ki reira:
27 E kore ano e tomo ki roto tetahi mea whakanoa, te tangata ranei e mahi ana i te whakarihariha, i te teka ranei: ko te hunga anake kua oti te tuhituhi ki ta te Reme pukapuka o te ora.
Uppenbarelseboken 21
Svenska 1917
21 Och jag såg en ny himmel och en ny jord; ty den förra himmelen och den förra jorden voro förgångna, och havet fanns icke mer.
2 Och jag såg den heliga staden, ett nytt Jerusalem, komma ned från himmelen, från Gud, färdigsmyckad såsom en brud som är prydd för sin brudgum.
3 Och jag hörde en stark röst från tronen säga: »Se, nu står Guds tabernakel bland människorna, och han skall bo ibland dem, och de skola vara hans folk; ja, Gud själv skall vara hos dem
4 och skall avtorka alla tårar från deras ögon. Och döden skall icke mer vara till, och ingen sorg eller klagan eller plåga skall vara mer; ty det som förr var är nu förgånget.»
5 Och han som satt på tronen sade: »Se, jag gör allting nytt.» Ytterligare sade han: »Skriv: ty dessa ord äro visa och sanna.»
6 Han sade vidare till mig: »Det är gjort. Jag är A och O, begynnelsen och änden. Åt den som törstar skall jag giva att dricka för intet ur källan med livets vatten.
7 Den som vinner seger, han skall få detta till arvedel, och jag skall vara hans Gud, och han skall vara min son.
8 Men de fega och de otrogna, och de som hava gjort vad styggeligt är, och dråpare och otuktiga människor och trollkarlar och avgudadyrkare och alla lögnare skola få sin del i den sjö som brinner med eld och svavel; detta är den andra döden.»
9 Och en av de sju änglarna med de sju skålar, som voro fulla med de sju sista plågorna, kom och talade till mig och sade: »Kom hit, så skall jag visa dig bruden, Lammets hustru.»
10 Och han förde mig i anden åstad upp på ett stort och högt berg och visade mig den heliga staden Jerusalem, som kom ned från himmelen, från Gud,
11 med Guds härlighet. Den glänste likt den dyrbaraste ädelsten, den var såsom kristallklar jaspis.
12 Den hade en stor och hög mur med tolv portar, och vid portarna stodo tolv änglar, och över portarna voro skrivna namn: namnen på Israels barns tolv stammar.
13 I öster voro tre portar, i norr tre portar, i söder tre portar och i väster tre portar.
14 Och stadsmuren hade tolv grundstenar, och på dem stodo tolv namn: namnen på Lammets tolv apostlar.
15 Och han som talade till mig hade en gyllene mätstång för att därmed mäta staden och dess portar och dess mur.
16 Och staden utgjorde en fyrkant, och dess längd var lika stor som dess bredd. Och med stången mätte han staden: dess mått var tolv tusen stadier, dess längd och bredd och höjd voro lika.
17 Och han mätte dess mur: den var ett hundra fyrtiofyra alnar efter människors mått, som ock är änglars.
18 Och stadsmuren var byggd av jaspis, men staden själv var av rent guld, likt rent glas.
19 Stadsmurens grundstenar voro skönt lagda och utgjordes av alla slags ädelstenar. Den första grundstenen var en jaspis, den andra en safir, den tredje en kalcedon, den fjärde en smaragd,
20 den femte en sardonyx, den sjätte en karneol, den sjunde en krysolit, den åttonde den beryll, den nionde en topas, den tionde en krysopras, den elfte en hyacint, den tolfte en ametist.
21 Och de tolv portarna utgjordes av tolv pärlor; var särskild port utgjordes av en enda pärla. Och stadens gata var av rent guld, likt genomskinligt glas.
22 Och jag såg i den intet tempel, ty Herren Gud, den Allsmäktige, är dess tempel, han och Lammet.
23 Och staden behöver icke sol eller måne till att lysa där, ty Guds härlighet upplyser den och dess ljus är Lammet.
24 Och folken skola vandra i dess ljus, och jordens konungar föra ditin, vad härligt de hava.
25 Dess portar skola aldrig stängas om dagen -- natt skall icke finnas där
26 och vad härligt och dyrbart folken hava skall man föra ditin.
27 Men intet orent skall någonsin komma ditin, och ingen som gör vad styggeligt är och lögn, utan allenast de som äro skrivna i livets bok, Lammets bok.
Revelation 21
New International Version
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)
