10 And he carried me away ain the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me bthe great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God,
11 ahaving the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal.
12 Also she had a great and high wall with atwelve gates, and twelve angels at the gates, and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel:
13 athree gates on the east, three gates on the north, three gates on the south, and three gates on the west.
14 Now the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and aon them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 And he who talked with me ahad a gold reed to measure the city, its gates, and its wall.
