CHAP. XXI.
1 A new heauen and a new earth. 10 The heauenly Ierusalem, with a full description thereof. 23 She needeth no Sunne, the glory of God is her light. 24 The kings of the earth bring their riches vnto her.
1 And *I saw a new heauen, and a new earth: for the first heauen, and the first earth were passed away, and there was no more sea.[*Esa.65.17 2.pet.3.13]
2 And I Iohn saw the holy City, new Hierusalem comming down from God out of heauen, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heauen, saying, Behold, the Tabernacle of God is with men, and he wil dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himselfe shalbe with them, and be their God.
4 *And God shall wipe away all teares from their eyes: and there shall bee no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there bee any more paine: for the former things are passed away.[*Chap.7.17]
5 And he that sate vpon the throne, said, *Behold, I make all things new. And hee said vnto me, Write: for these words are true and faithfull.[*2.Cor.5. 17.]
6 And he said vnto mee, It is done: *I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will giue vnto him that is athirst, of the fountaine of the water of life, freely.[Chap.1.8. and 22. 13. , Esa.55.1.]
7 He that ouercommeth, shall inherite all things, and I will bee his God, and he shall be my sonne.
8 But the fearefull, and vnbeleeuing, and the abominable, and murderers, and whore mongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all lyars, shall haue their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
9 And there came vnto me one of the seuen Angels, which had the seuen vials full of the seuen last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the Bride, the Lambes wife.
