Vision 7: The New Heaven And New Earth And New Jerusalem

21 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth passed-away. And there is no longer a sea^[a]. ² And I saw the holy city— the new Jerusalem— coming down out of heaven from God, having been prepared like a bride having been adorned for her husband. ³ And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying “Behold— the dwelling^[b] of God is with mankind. And He will dwell with them. And they themselves will be His peoples^[c]. And God Himself with them will be their God. ⁴ And He will wipe-away every tear from their eyes^[d]. And there will no longer be death, nor will there be mourning nor crying nor pain any longer, because the first things passed away”. ⁵ And the One sitting on the throne said, “Behold— I am making all things new”. And he^[e] says, “Write, because these words are trustworthy^[f] and true”. ⁶ And He said to me, “They^[g] are done^[h]. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the one thirsting, I will give from the spring of the water of life as-a-gift^[i]. ⁷ The one overcoming will inherit these things, and I will be God to him and he will be a son to Me. ⁸ But for the cowardly^[j] ones, and unbelieving^[k] ones, and ones having been abominable^[l], and murderers, and sexually-immoral ones, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all the liars— their part^[m] will be in the lake burning with fire and sulphur, which is the second death”.
