7. The one who conquers will inherit these things, and I will be his God and he will be my son.
8. But to the cowards, unbelievers, detestable persons, murderers, the sexually immoral, and those who practice magic spells, idol worshipers, and all those who lie, their place will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. That is the second death.”
9. Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven final plagues came and spoke to me, saying, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb!”
10. So he took me away in the Spirit to a huge, majestic mountain and showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God.
11. The city possesses the glory of God; its brilliance is like a precious jewel, like a stone of crystal-clear jasper.
12. It has a massive, high wall with twelve gates, with twelve angels at the gates, and the names of the twelve tribes of the nation of Israel are written on the gates.
13. There are three gates on the east side, three gates on the north side, three gates on the south side and three gates on the west side.
