Revelation 21:13-18 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

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 walls of the city were built on twelve foundation stones. On the stones were written the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.

15. The angel who talked with me had a measuring rod made of gold. The angel had this rod to measure the city, its gates, and its wall.

16. The city was built in a square. Its length was equal to its width. The angel measured the city with the rod. The city was 12,000 stadia long, 12,000 stadia wide, and 12,000 stadia high.

17. The angel also measured the wall. It was 144 cubits high. (The angel was using the same measurement that people use.)

18. The wall was made of jasper. The city was made of pure gold, as pure as glass.
