Revelation 21:13-17 God's Word Translation (GW)

13. There were three gates on the east, three gates on the north, three gates on the south, and three gates on the west.

14. The wall of the city had 12 foundations. The 12 names of the 12 apostles of the lamb were written on them.

15. The angel who was talking to me had a gold measuring stick to measure the city, its gates, and its wall.

16. The city was square. It was as wide as it was long. He measured the city with the stick. It was 12,000 stadia long. Its length, width, and height were the same.

17. He measured its wall. According to human measurement, which the angel was using, it was 144 cubits.
