The River of Life
1 And he showed me a1a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2 aIn the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was bthe tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were cfor the healing of the nations.
3 And athere shall be no more curse, bbut the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His cservants shall serve Him.
4 aThey shall see His face, and bHis name shall be on their foreheads.
5 aThere shall be no night there: They need no lamp nor blight of the sun, for cthe Lord God gives them light. dAnd they shall reign forever and ever.
The Time Is Near
6 Then he said to me, a“These words are faithful and true.” And the Lord God of the1 holy prophets bsent His angel to show His servants the things which must cshortly take place.
8 Now I, John,1 saw and heard these things. And when I heard and saw, aI fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who showed me these things.
9 Then he said to me, a“See that you do not do that. For I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren the prophets, and of those who keep the words of this book. Worship God.”
