CHAPTER 22
:1 And he shewed <G 1166> me a pure <G 2513> river <G 4215> of
water <G 5204>
of life <G 2222>, clear <G 2986> as crystal <G 2930>, proceeding
<G 1607> out of
the throne <G 2362> of God <G 2316> and of the Lamb <G 0721>.
:2 In the midst <G 3319> of the street <G 4113> of it, and on
<G 1909> either
<G 2532> side <G 1782> of the river <G 4215>, [was there] the
tree <G 3586> of
life <G 2222>, which bare <G 4160> twelve <G 1427> [manner of]
fruits <G 2590>,
[and] yielded <G 0591> her fruit <G 2590> every <G 1538> month
<G 3376>: and the
leaves <G 5444> of the tree <G 3586> [were] for the healing <G
2322> of the
nations <G 1484>.
:3 And there shall be no <G 3756> more <G 2089> curse <G 2652>:
but the throne
<G 2362> of God <G 2316> and of the Lamb <G 0721> shall be in it;
and his
servants <G 1401> shall serve <G 3000> him:
:4 And they shall see <G 3708> his face <G 4383>; and his name
<G 3686> [shall
be] in their foreheads <G 3359>.
:5 And there shall be no <G 3756> night <G 3571> there <G 1563>;
and they need
<G 5532> no <G 3756> candle <G 3088>, neither light <G 5457> of
the sun <G
2246>; for the Lord <G 2962> God <G 2316> giveth them light <G
5461>: and they
shall reign <G 0936> for ever <G 0165> and ever <G 0165>.
:6 And he said <G 2036> unto me, These <G 3778> sayings <G
3056> [are] faithful
<G 4103> and true <G 0228>: and the Lord <G 2962> God <G 2316>
of the holy <G
0040> prophets <G 4396> sent <G 0649> his angel <G 0032> to shew
<G 1166> unto
his servants <G 1401> the things which <G 3739> must <G 1163>
shortly <G 5034>
be done <G 1096>.
:7 Behold <G 2400>, I come <G 2064> quickly <G 5035>: blessed
<G 3107> [is] he
that keepeth <G 5083> the sayings <G 3056> of the prophecy <G
4394> of this <G
5127> book <G 0975>.
:8 And I John <G 2491> saw <G 0991> these <G 5023> things, and
heard <G 0191>
[them]. And when <G 3753> I had heard <G 0191> and seen <G 0991>,
I fell <G
4098> down to worship <G 4352> before <G 1715> the feet <G 4228>
of the angel <G
0032> which <G 3588> shewed <G 1166> me these <G 5023> things.
:9 Then <G 2532> saith <G 3004> he unto me, See <G 3708> [thou
do it] not: for
I am <G 1510> thy fellowservant <G 4889>, and of thy brethren <G
0080> the
prophets <G 4396>, and of them which keep <G 5083> the sayings
<G 3056> of this
<G 5127> book <G 0975>: worship <G 4352> God <G 2316>.
:10 And he saith <G 3004> unto me, Seal <G 4972> not the
sayings <G 3056> of
the prophecy <G 4394> of this <G 5127> book <G 0975>: for the
time <G 2540> is
at <G 1451> hand <G 1451>.
:11 He that is unjust <G 0091>, let him be unjust <G 0091>
still <G 2089>: and
he which is filthy <G 4510>, let him be filthy <G 4510> still <G
2089>: and he
that is righteous <G 1342>, let him be righteous <G 1344> still
<G 2089>: and he
that is holy <G 0040>, let him be holy <G 0037> still <G 2089>.
:12 And, behold <G 2400>, I come <G 2064> quickly <G 5035>; and
my reward <G
3408> [is] with me, to give <G 0591> every <G 1538> man
according <G 5613> as
his work <G 2041> shall be.
:13 I am <G 1510> Alpha <G 0001> and Omega <G 5598>, the
beginning <G 0746> and
the end <G 5056>, the first <G 4413> and the last <G 2078>.
:14 Blessed <G 3107> [are] they that do <G 4160> his
commandments <G 1785>,
that they may have <G 2071> right <G 1849> to the tree <G 3586>
of life <G
2222>, and may enter <G 1525> in through the gates <G 4440> into
<G 1519> the
city <G 4172>.
:15 For without <G 1854> [are] dogs <G 2965>, and sorcerers <G
5333>, and
whoremongers <G 4205>, and murderers <G 5406>, and idolaters <G
1496>, and
whosoever <G 3588> loveth <G 5368> and maketh <G 4160> a lie <G
5579>.
:16 I Jesus <G 2424> have sent <G 3992> mine <G 3450> angel <G
0032> to testify
<G 3140> unto you these <G 5023> things in the churches <G 1577>.
I am <G 1510>
the root <G 4491> and the offspring <G 1085> of David <G 1138>,
[and] the bright
<G 2986> and morning <G 3720> star <G 0792>.
:17 And the Spirit <G 4151> and the bride <G 3565> say <G 3004>,
Come <G 2064>.
And let him that heareth <G 0191> say <G 2036>, Come <G 2064>.
And let him that
is athirst <G 1372> come <G 2064>. And whosoever <G 3588> will
<G 2309>, let him
take <G 2902> the water <G 5204> of life <G 2222> freely <G
1432>.
:18 For I testify <G 4828> unto every <G 3956> man <G 3956>
that heareth <G
0191> the words <G 3056> of the prophecy <G 4394> of this <G
5127> book <G
0975>, If <G 1437> any <G 5100> man shall add <G 2007> unto
these <G 5023>
things, God <G 2316> shall add <G 2007> unto him the plagues <G
4127> that are
written <G 1125> in this <G 5129> book <G 0975>:
:19 And if <G 1437> any <G 5100> man shall take <G 0851> away
<G 0851> from the
words <G 3056> of the book <G 0976> of this <G 5129> prophecy <G
4394>, God <G
2316> shall take <G 0851> away <G 0851> his part <G 3313> out of
the book <G
0976> of life <G 2222>, and out of the holy <G 0040> city <G
4172>, and [from]
the things which are written <G 1125> in this <G 5026> book <G
0975>.
:20 He which testifieth <G 3140> these <G 5023> things saith <G
3004>, Surely
<G 3483> I come <G 2064> quickly <G 5035>. Amen <G 0281>. Even
<G 3483> so <G
3483>, come <G 2064>, Lord <G 2962> Jesus <G 2424>.
:21 The grace <G 5485> of our Lord <G 2962> Jesus <G 2424>
Christ <G 5547> [be]
with you all <G 3956>. Amen <G 0281>.
