he height of it, are exactly proportioned. (17)He measured
also the wall of it a hundred and forty-four cubits, according to the
measure of a man, for such is that of an angel.

(18)The structure of the wall of it was jasper, and the city pure gold,
like clear glass. (19)And the foundations of the walls of the city were
adorned with every precious stone: the first foundation a jasper; the
second a sapphire; the third a chalcedony; the fourth an emerald;
(20)the fifth a sardonyx; the sixth a sardius; the seventh a
chrysolite; the eighth a beryl; the ninth a topaz; the tenth a
chrysoprasus; the eleventh a jacinth; the twelfth an amethyst. (21)And
the twelve gates were twelve several pearls; every one of the gates was
of one pearl; and the street of the city was pure gold, as transparent
glass.

(22)And I saw no temple therein; for the Lord God Almighty is the
temple thereof, even the Lamb. (23)And the city had no need of the sun,
neither of the moon to shine upon it: for the glory of God illuminates
it, and the Lamb is the lamp thereof. (24)And the nations of those that
are saved shall walk about in the light thereof; and the kings of the
earth shall bring their glory and their honour into it; (25)and her
gates shall be never shut by day (for there is no night there); (26)and
they shall bring the glory and the honour of the nations into it.
(27)And there shall no more enter into it any thing unclean, or that
practises abomination and lying; but only those who are written in the
book of life of the Lamb.

CHAP. XXII.

AND he shewed me a clear river of water of life, bright as crystal,
proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. (2)In the midst of
the street of it, even on this side, and on that of the river, grew the
tree of life, producing twelve crops of fruit, and ripening its fruit
in succession every month; and the leaves of the tree are for the
healing of the nations.

(3)And no accursed thing is there any more; and the throne of God and
of the Lamb are in it, and his servants will pay divine worship to him.
(4)And they shall see his face; and his name shall be on their
foreheads. (5)And there shall be no night there, and they have no need
of a lamp, or the light of the sun; because the Lord God illumines
them: and they shall reign for ever and ever.

(6)And he said to me, These words are faithful and true. And the Lord
God of the holy prophets hath sent his angel to shew to his servants
