text: Revelations 21\n\n\n10  He carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, \n11  having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, as if it was a jasper stone, clear as crystal; \n12  having a great and high wall; having twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels; and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel. \n13  On the east were three gates; and on the north three gates; and on the south three gates; and on the west three gates. \n14  The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them twelve names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb. \n15  He who spoke with me had for a measure, a golden reed, to measure the city, its gates, and its walls. \n16  The city lies foursquare, and its length is as great as its breadth. He measured the city with the reed, Twelve thousand twelve stadia. Its length, breadth, and height are equal. \n17  Its wall is one hundred forty-four cubits, by the measure of a man, that is, of an angel. \n18  The construction of its wall was jasper. The city was pure gold, like pure glass. \n19  The foundations of the city's wall were adorned with all kinds of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, emerald; \n20  the fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprasus; the eleventh, jacinth; and the twelfth, amethyst. 21  The twelve gates were twelve pearls. Each one of the gates was made of one pearl. The street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass. \n22  I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God, the Almighty, and the Lamb, are its temple. \n23  The city has no need for the sun, neither of the moon, to shine, for the very glory of God illuminated it, and its lamp is the Lamb.
