Revised Standard Version RSV
The Latin Vulgate VUL
1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more.
1
et vidi caelum novum et terram novam primum enim caelum et prima terra abiit et mare iam non est
2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband;
2
et civitatem sanctam Hierusalem novam vidi descendentem de caelo a Deo paratam sicut sponsam ornatam viro suo
3 and I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Behold, the dwelling of God is with men. He will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself will be with them;
3
et audivi vocem magnam de throno dicentem ecce tabernaculum Dei cum hominibus et habitabit cum eis et ipsi populus eius erunt et ipse Deus cum eis erit eorum Deus
4 he will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning nor crying nor pain any more, for the former things have passed away."
4
et absterget Deus omnem lacrimam ab oculis eorum et mors ultra non erit neque luctus neque clamor neque dolor erit ultra quae prima abierunt
5 And he who sat upon the throne said, "Behold, I make all things new." Also he said, "Write this, for these words are trustworthy and true."
5
et dixit qui sedebat in throno ecce nova facio omnia et dicit scribe quia haec verba fidelissima sunt et vera
6 And he said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the fountain of the water of life without payment.
6
et dixit mihi factum est ego sum Alpha et Omega initium et finis ego sitienti dabo de fonte aquae vivae gratis
7 He who conquers shall have this heritage, and I will be his God and he shall be my son.
7
qui vicerit possidebit haec et ero illi Deus et ille erit mihi filius
8 But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the polluted, as for murderers, fornicators, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their lot shall be in the lake that burns with fire and sulphur, which is the second death."
8
timidis autem et incredulis et execratis et homicidis et fornicatoribus et veneficis et idolatris et omnibus mendacibus pars illorum erit in stagno ardenti igne et sulphure quod est mors secunda
9 Then came one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues, and spoke to me, saying, "Come, I will show you the Bride, the wife of the Lamb."
9
et venit unus de septem angelis habentibus fialas plenas septem plagis novissimis et locutus est mecum dicens veni ostendam tibi sponsam uxorem agni
10 And in the Spirit he carried me away to a great, high mountain, and showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God,
10
et sustulit me in spiritu in montem magnum et altum et ostendit mihi civitatem sanctam Hierusalem descendentem de caelo a Deo
11 having the glory of God, its radiance like a most rare jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal.
11
habentem claritatem Dei lumen eius simile lapidi pretioso tamquam lapidi iaspidis sicut cristallum
12 It had a great, high wall, with twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and on the gates the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel were inscribed;
12
et habebat murum magnum et altum habens portas duodecim et in portis angelos duodecim et nomina inscripta quae sunt nomina duodecim tribuum filiorum Israhel
13 on the east three gates, on the north three gates, on the south three gates, and on the west three gates.
13
ab oriente portae tres et ab aquilone portae tres et ab austro portae tres et ab occasu portae tres
14 And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
14
et murus civitatis habens fundamenta duodecim et in ipsis duodecim nomina duodecim apostolorum agni
15 And he who talked to me had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city and its gates and walls.
15
et qui loquebatur mecum habebat mensuram harundinem auream ut metiretur civitatem et portas eius et murum
16 The city lies foursquare, its length the same as its breadth; and he measured the city with his rod, twelve thousand stadia; its length and breadth and height are equal.
16
et civitas in quadro posita est et longitudo eius tanta est quanta et latitudo et mensus est civitatem de harundine per stadia duodecim milia longitudo et latitudo et altitudo eius aequalia sunt
17 He also measured its wall, a hundred and forty-four cubits by a man's measure, that is, an angel's.
17
et mensus est murus eius centum quadraginta quattuor cubitorum mensura hominis quae est angeli
18 The wall was built of jasper, while the city was pure gold, clear as glass.
18
et erat structura muri eius ex lapide iaspide ipsa vero civitas auro mundo simile vitro mundo
19 The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with every jewel; the first was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald,
19
fundamenta muri civitatis omni lapide pretioso ornata fundamentum primum iaspis secundus sapphyrus tertius carcedonius quartus zmaragdus
20 the fifth onyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst.
20
quintus sardonix sextus sardinus septimus chrysolitus octavus berillus nonus topazius decimus chrysoprassus undecimus hyacinthus duodecimus amethistus
21 And the twelve gates were twelve pearls, each of the gates made of a single pearl, and the street of the city was pure gold, transparent as glass.
21
et duodecim portae duodecim margaritae sunt per singulas et singulae portae erant ex singulis margaritis et platea civitatis aurum mundum tamquam vitrum perlucidum
22 And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb.
22
et templum non vidi in ea Dominus enim Deus omnipotens templum illius est et agnus
23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine upon it, for the glory of God is its light, and its lamp is the Lamb.
23
et civitas non eget sole neque luna ut luceant in ea nam claritas Dei inluminavit eam et lucerna eius est agnus
24 By its light shall the nations walk; and the kings of the earth shall bring their glory into it,
24
et ambulabunt gentes per lumen eius et reges terrae adferent gloriam suam et honorem in illam
25 and its gates shall never be shut by day--and there shall be no night there;
25
et portae eius non cludentur per diem nox enim non erit illic
26 they shall bring into it the glory and the honor of the nations.
26
et adferent gloriam et honorem gentium in illam
27 But nothing unclean shall enter it, nor any one who practices abomination or falsehood, but only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life.
27
nec intrabit in ea aliquid coinquinatum et faciens abominationem et mendacium nisi qui scripti sunt in libro vitae agni
