Revelation 21:14–27

¹⁴And the wall of the city had twelve ^gfoundations, and ^hon them were the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

¹⁵And the one who spoke with me ⁱhad a measuring rod of gold to measure the city and its gates and walls. ¹⁶The city lies foursquare, its length the same as its width. And he measured the city with his rod, 12,000 stadia.⁴ Its length and width and height are equal. ¹⁷He also measured its wall, 144 cubits⁵ by ^jhuman measurement, which is also ^kan angel’s measurement. ¹⁸The wall was built of ^ljasper, while the city was pure gold, like ^lclear glass. ^19mThe 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, ²⁰the fifth onyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst. ²¹And the twelve gates were twelve pearls, each of the gates made of a single pearl, and ⁿthe street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass.

²²And ^oI saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. ²³And the city ^phas no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for ^qthe glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb. ²⁴By its light ^rwill the nations walk, and the kings of the earth ^swill bring their glory into it, ²⁵and ^tits gates will never be shut by day—and ^uthere will be no night there. ²⁶They will bring into it the glory and the honor of the nations. ²⁷But ^vnothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who does what is detestable or false, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s ^wbook of life.
