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.
02 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.
03 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:
04 And they shall see his face; and his name
shall be in their foreheads.
05 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.
06 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.
07 Behold, I come quickly: blessed
is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of
this book.
08 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.
09 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 And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of
the prophecy of this book: for the time is at
hand.
11 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 And, behold, I come quickly; and
my reward is with me, to give every man according
as his work shall be.
13 I am Alpha and Omega,
the beginning and the end, the first and the
last.
14 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 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and
whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and
whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
16 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 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 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 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 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I
come quickly. Amen. Even so, come,
Lord Jesus.
21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you
all. Amen.
