Revelation 21:3-8

3And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, “Behold, 1the tabernacle of God is among men, and He will 23dwell among them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be among them4, 4and He will 5wipe away every tear from their eyes; and 6there will no longer be any death; 7there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; 8the first things have passed away.”

5And 9He who sits on the throne said, “Behold, I am 10making all things new.” And He said, “Write, for 11these words are faithful and true.” 6Then He said to me, “1213It is done. I am the 14Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. 15I will give to the one who thirsts from the spring of the 16water of life without cost. 717He who overcomes will inherit these things, and 18I will be his God and he will be My son. 819But for the cowardly and 20unbelieving and abominable and murderers and immoral persons and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their part will be in 21the lake that burns with fire and 22brimstone, which is the 23second death.”
