1. And he showed me a river of water of life, bright as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb,
2. in the midst of the street thereof. And on this side of the river and on that was the tree of life, bearing twelve manner of fruits, yielding its fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
3. And there shall be no curse any more: and the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be therein: and his servants shall serve him;
4. and they shall see his face; and his name shall be on their foreheads.
5. And there shall be night no more; and they need no light of lamp, neither light of sun; for the Lord God shall give them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.
6. And he said unto me, These words are faithful and true: and the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, sent his angels to show unto his servants the things which must shortly come to pass.
7. And behold, I come quickly. Blessed is he that keepeth the words of the prophecy of this book.
8. And I John am he that heard and saw these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel that showed me these things.
9. And he saith unto me, See thou do it not: I am a fellow-servant with thee and with thy brethren the prophets, and with them that keep the words of this book: worship God.
10. And he saith unto me, Seal not up the words of the prophecy of this book; for the time is at hand.
11. He that is unrighteous, let him do unrighteousness still: and he that is filthy, let him be made filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him do righteousness still: and he that is holy, let him be made holy still.
