1And 1he showedG1166 me a 2riverG4215 of the 3waterG5204 of lifeG2222, 4clearG2986 5as crystalG2930, comingG1607 from the throneG2362 of GodG2316 and of 6the LambG721, 2in the middleG3319 of 7its streetG4116. 8OnG1782 eitherG1782 sideG1782 of the riverG4215 was 9the treeG3586 of lifeG2222, bearingG4160 twelveG1427 10kinds of fruitG2590, yieldingG591 its fruitG2590 everyG2596G1538 monthG3376; and the leavesG5444 of the treeG3586 were for the healingG2322 of the nationsG1484. 311There will noG3756 longerG2089 be anyG3956 curseG2616; and 12the throneG2362 of GodG2316 and of the LambG721 will be in it, and His bond-servantsG1401 will 13serveG3000 Him; 4they will 14seeG3708 His faceG4383, and His 15nameG3686 will be on their 16foreheadsG3359. 5And 17there will noG3756 longerG2089 be any nightG3571; and they 18will not haveG2192 needG5532 19of the lightG5457 of a lampG3088 norG2532 the lightG5457 of the sunG2246, becauseG3754 the LordG2962 GodG2316 will illuminateG5461 them; and they will 20reignG936 foreverG165 and everG165.
6And 21he saidG3004 to me, “22TheseG3778 wordsG3056 are faithfulG4103 and trueG228”; and the LordG2962, the 23GodG2316 of the spiritsG4151 of the prophetsG4396, 24sentG649 His angelG32 to showG1166 His bond-servantsG1401 the things whichG3739 mustG1163 soonG5034 takeG1096 placeG1096.
7“And beholdG2400, 25I am comingG2064 quicklyG5035. 26BlessedG3107 is the one who 27keepsG5083 28the wordsG3056 of the prophecyG4394 of thisG3778 bookG975.”
