The Revelation of St John the Divine

 1 And he shewed me a pure river of ^awater of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.

 2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the ^atree of ^blife, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the ^cleaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

 3 And there shall be no more ^acurse: but the ^bthrone of God and of the ^cLamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:

 4 And they shall ^asee his ^bface; and his ^cname shall be in their foreheads.

 5 And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the ^asun; for the Lord God giveth them ^blight: and they shall ^creign ^dfor ever and ever.

 6 And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and ^atrue: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must ^bshortly be done.

 7 Behold, I ^acome quickly: ^bblessed is he that keepeth the ^csayings of the prophecy of this book.

 8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I ^afell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.

 9 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 ^aunjust, let him be ^bunjust still: and he which is ^cfilthy, 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 ^acome quickly; and my ^breward is with me, to give every man according as his ^cwork shall be.

 13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the ^afirst and the last.

 14 Blessed are they that ^ado his ^bcommandments, 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 ^asorcerers, and ^bwhoremongers, and ^cmurderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a ^dlie.

 16 I Jesus have sent mine ^aangel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the ^broot and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning ^cstar.

 17 And the Spirit and the bride say, ^aCome. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the ^bwater of life freely.

 18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall ^aadd unto these things, God shall add unto him the ^bplagues 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 ^abook 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 ^acome quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

 21 The ^agrace of our ^bLord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
