3. There will no longer be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city. God's servants will serve him.
4. They will see his face. His name will be on their foreheads.
5. There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun. The Lord God will give them light. They will rule for ever and ever.
6. The angel said to me, "You can trust these words. They are true. The Lord is the God of the spirits of the prophets. He sent his angel to show those who serve him the things that must soon take place."
7. "Look! I am coming soon! Blessed are those who obey the words of the prophecy in this book."
8. I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. After I had heard and seen them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel. He is the one who had been showing me these things.
