¹⁹ 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.

² 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.

²⁸ Let their names be taken from the book of the living, let them not be numbered with the upright.

²² And I saw no Temple there; because the Lord God, the Ruler of all, and the Lamb are its Temple.

²³ And the town has no need of the sun, or of the moon, to give it light: for the glory of God did make it light, and the light of it is the Lamb.

²⁴ And the nations will go in its light: and the kings of the earth will take their glory into it.

²⁵ And the doors of it will never be shut by day (for there is no night there):

²⁶ And the glory and honour of the nations will come into it:

²⁷ And nothing unclean may come into it, or anyone whose works are cursed or false; but only those whose names are in the Lamb's book of life.

² And I saw the holy town, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, like a bride made beautiful for her husband.

⁸ And all who are on the earth will give him worship, everyone whose name has not been from the first in the book of life of the Lamb who was put to death.

⁴ But you have some names in Sardis who have kept clean their robes; and as a reward they will go in white with me.

⁵ He who overcomes will be dressed in white, and I will not take his name from the book of life, and I will give witness to his name before my Father, and before his angels.

⁵² A curse is on you, teachers of the law! for you have taken away the key of knowledge: you did not go in yourselves, and you got in the way of those who were going in.

² Make no addition to the orders which I give you, and take nothing from them, but keep the orders of the Lord your God which I give you.

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

¹³ And a voice from heaven came to my ears, saying, Put in writing, There is a blessing on the dead who from now on come to their end in the Lord: yes, says the Spirit, that they may have rest from their troubles; for their works go with them.

⁹ After these things I saw a great army of people more than might be numbered, out of every nation and of all tribes and peoples and languages, taking their places before the high seat and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes, and with branches in their hands,

¹⁰ Saying with a loud voice, Salvation to our God who is seated on the high seat, and to the Lamb.

¹¹ And all the angels were round about the high seat, and about the rulers and the four beasts; and they went down on their faces before the high seat, and gave worship to God, saying,

¹² So be it. Let blessing and glory and wisdom and praise and honour and power and strength be given to our God for ever and ever. So be it.

¹³ And one of the rulers made answer, saying to me, These who have on white robes, who are they, and where did they come from?

¹⁴ And I said to him, My lord, you have knowledge. And he said to me, These are they who came through the great testing, and their robes have been washed and made white in the blood of the Lamb.

¹⁵ This is why they are before the high seat of God; and they are his servants day and night in his house: and he who is seated on the high seat will be a tent over them.

¹⁶ They will never be in need of food or drink: and they will never again be troubled by the burning heat of the sun:

¹⁷ For the Lamb who is on the high seat will be their keeper and their guide to fountains of living water: and God will make glad their eyes for ever.

²¹ To him who overcomes I will give a place with me on my high seat, even as I overcame, and am seated with my Father on his high seat.

¹² Him who overcomes I will make a pillar in the house of my God, and he will go out no more: and I will put on him the name of my God, and the name of the town of my God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from my God, and my new name.

²⁶ He who overcomes, and keeps my works to the end, to him I will give rule over the nations,

¹⁷ He who has ears, let him give ear to what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give of the secret manna, and I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name, of which no one has knowledge but he to whom it is given.

¹⁸ And to the angel of the church in Thyatira say: These things says the Son of God, whose eyes are like a flame of fire, and his feet like polished brass:

¹¹ He who has ears, let him give ear to what the Spirit says to the churches. He who overcomes will not come under the power of the second death.

⁷ He who has ears, let him give ear to what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give of the fruit of the tree of life, which is in the Paradise of God.

³ A blessing be on the reader, and on those who give ear to the prophet's words, and keep the things which he has put in the book: for the time is near.

³³ And the Lord said to Moses, Whoever has done evil against me will be taken out of my book.
