Revelation 22

1 Then the angel showed me a pure river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb

2 down the middle of the main street of the city. On either side of the river stood a tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit and yielding a fresh crop for each month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations.

3 No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be within the city, and His servants will worship Him.

4 They will see His face, and His name will be on their foreheads.

5 There will be no more night in the city, and they will have no need for the light of a lamp or of the sun. For the Lord God will shine on them, and they will reign forever and ever.

6 Then the angel said to me, “These words are faithful and true. The Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent His angel to show His servants what must soon take place.”

7 “Behold, I am coming soon. Blessed is the one who keeps the words of prophecy in this book.”

8 And I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I had heard and seen them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who had shown me these things.

9 But he said to me, “Do not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God!”

10 Then he told me, “Do not seal up the words of prophecy in this book, because the time is near.

11 Let the unrighteous continue to be unrighteous, and the vile continue to be vile; let the righteous continue to practice righteousness, and the holy continue to be holy.”

12 “Behold, I am coming soon, and My reward is with Me, to give to each one according to what he has done.

13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.”

14 Blessed are those who do His commandments, so that they may have the right to the tree of life and may enter the city by its gates.

15 But outside are the dogs, the sorcerers, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters, and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.

16 “I, Jesus, have sent My angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the bright Morning Star.”

17 The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” Let the one who hears say, “Come!” And let the one who is thirsty come, and the one who desires the water of life drink freely.

18 I testify to everyone who hears the words of prophecy in this book: If anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book.

19 And if anyone takes away from the words of this book of prophecy, may God take away his share in the tree of life and the holy city, which are described in this book.

20 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Yes, come, Lord Jesus!

21 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with all the saints. Amen.

1 ¶ And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.

2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, [was there] the tree of life, which bare twelve [manner of] fruits, [and] yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree [were] for the healing of the nations.

3 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:

4 And they shall see his face; and his name [shall be] in their foreheads.

5 And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.

6 ¶ And he said unto me, These sayings [are] faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done.

7 ‹Behold, I come quickly:› blessed [is] he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.

8 And I John saw these things, and heard [them]. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.

9 Then saith he unto me, See [thou do it] not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.

10 And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.

11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.

12 ‹And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward› [is] ‹with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.›

13 ‹I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.›

14 Blessed [are] they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

15 For without [are] dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

16 ‹I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David,› [and] ‹the bright and morning star.›

17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:

19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and [from] the things which are written in this book.

20 ¶ He which testifieth these things saith, ‹Surely I come quickly.› Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all. Amen.

1 And he shewed me a clear stream of living water, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.

2 In the midst of their street, and on both sides of the river, stood the wood of life, which bare twelve kinds of fruit, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the wood were for the health of the heathen.

3 And there shall be no more banishment: and the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him.

4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.

5 And there shall be no night, neither need of a lamp, nor of the light of the sun: for God the LORD shall give them light, and they shall reign for ever and ever.

6 And he said unto me, These words are sure and true. And God, the LORD of the holy prophets, hath sent his angel to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass.

7 Behold, I come quickly! Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy in this book.

8 And I am John, which have seen and heard these things. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.

9 And he saith unto me, Behold, do it not: for I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them that keep the words of this book; worship GOD.

10 And he saith unto me, Seal not up the words of the prophecy which are in this book: for the time is at hand.

11 Whosoever is evil, let him be evil; and whosoever is unclean, let him be unclean. But let him that is righteous be righteous; and let him that is holy be holy.

12 And, behold, I come quickly, and my reward with me, to give every man according as his works shall be.

13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

14 Blessed are they that keep his commandments, that their power may be upon the tree of life, and that they may enter into the gates of the city.

15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and all that love and do deceit.

16 I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify unto you in the churches. I am the root of the family of David, a bright morning star.

17 And the Spirit and the bride say: Come; and whosoever heareth, let him say, Come; and whosoever thirsteth, let him come; and whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.

18 And I testify unto all them that hear the words of this prophecy which are written in this book, If any man add unto them, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book.

19 And if any man depart from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part from the book of life, and from the holy city, and from those things which are written in this book.

20 He that testifieth these things saith, Yea, I come quickly. Amen. Yes, come, Lord Jesus!

21 the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen. End of the New Testament
