Revelation 21:2-5

2And I saw 1the holy city, 2new Jerusalem, 3coming down out of heaven from God, 4prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, “Behold, 5the tabernacle of God is among the people, and He will 6dwell among them, and they shall be His 7people, and God Himself will be among them8, 4and He will 9wipe away every tear from their eyes; and 10there will no longer be any death; 11there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; 12the first things have passed away.”

5And 13He who sits on the throne said, “Behold, I am 14making all things new.” And He said, “Write, for 15these words are faithful and true.”
