The Glory of the New Jerusalem

22 aBut I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.  
23 aThe city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine1 in it, for the glory of God illuminated it. The Lamb is its light.  
24 aAnd the nations1 of those who are saved shall walk in its light, and the kings of the earth bring their glory and honor2 into it.  
25 aIts gates shall not be shut at all by day b(there shall be no night there).  
26 aAnd they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into1 it.  
27 But athere shall by no means enter it anything1 that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s bBook of Life.

Revelation 21:24

of them which are saved . . . in—A, B, Vulgate, Coptic, and ANDREAS read "(the nations shall walk) by means of her light": omitting "of them which are saved." Her brightness shall supply them with light.

the kings of the earth—who once had regard only to their glory, having been converted, now in the new Jerusalem do bring their glory into it, to lay it down at the feet of their God and Lord.

and honour—so B, Vulgate, and Syriac. But A omits the clause.
