^{1 Ref} And I saw a river of water of life, clear as glass, coming out of the high seat of God and of the Lamb,

^{2 Ref} In the middle of its street. And on this side of the river and on that was the tree of life, having twelve sorts of fruits, giving its fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree give life to the nations.

^{3 Ref} And there will be no more curse: and the high seat of God and of the Lamb will be there; and his servants will be worshipping him;

^{4 Ref} And they will see his face; and his name will be on their brows.

^{5 Ref} And there will be no more night; and they have no need of a light or of the shining of the sun; for the Lord God will give them light: and they will be ruling for ever and ever.

^{6 Ref} And he said to me, These words are certain and true: and the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, sent his angel to make clear to his servants the things which are now to come about.

^{7 Ref} See, I come quickly. A blessing on him who keeps the words of this book of the prophet.

^{8 Ref} And I, John, am he who saw these things and to whose ears they came. And when I had seen and given ear, I went down on my face to give worship at the feet of the angel who made these things clear to me.

^{9 Ref} And he said to me, See you do it not; I am a brother-servant with you and with your brothers the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book: give worship to God.

^{10 Ref} And he said to me, Let not the words of this prophet's book be kept secret, because the time is near.

^{11 Ref} Let the evil man go on in his evil: and let the unclean be still unclean: and let the upright go on in his righteousness: and let the holy be holy still.

^{12 Ref} See, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give to every man the outcome of his works.

^{13 Ref} I am the First and the Last, the start and the end.

^{14 Ref} A blessing on those whose robes are washed, so that they may have a right to the tree of life, and may go in by the doors into the town.

^{15 Ref} Outside are the dogs, and those who make use of evil powers, those who make themselves unclean, and the takers of life, and those who give worship to images, and everyone whose delight is in what is false.

^{16 Ref} I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give witness to you of these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, the bright and morning star.

^{17 Ref} And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him who gives ear, say, Come. And let him who is in need come; and let everyone desiring it take of the water of life freely.

^{18 Ref} For I say to every man to whose ears have come the words of this prophet's book, If any man makes an addition to them, God will put on him the punishments which are in this book:

^{19 Ref} And if any man takes away from the words of this book, God will take away from him his part in the tree of life and the holy town, even the things which are in this book.

^{20 Ref} He who gives witness to these things says, Truly, I come quickly. Even so come, Lord Jesus.

^{21 Ref} The grace of the Lord Jesus be with the saints. So be it.

^{1 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.

^{5 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.

^{8 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.

^{11 Ref} 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 Ref} And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.

^{13 Ref} I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

^{14 Ref} 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 Ref} For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

^{16 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} 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 Ref} He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

^{21 Ref} The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
