Revelation 21

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	VULGATA
1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth. The former heaven and the former earth had passed away, and the sea was no more.	1 Et vidi cælum novum et terram novam. Primum enim cælum, et prima terra abiit, et mare jam non est.
2 I also saw the holy city, a new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.	2 Et ego Joannes vidi sanctam civitatem Jerusalem novam descendentem de cælo a Deo, paratam sicut sponsam ornatam viro suo.
3 I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Behold, God's dwelling is with the human race. He will dwell with them and they will be his people and God himself will always be with them (as their God).	3 Et audivi vocem magnam de throno dicentem : Ecce tabernaculum Dei cum hominibus, et habitabit cum eis. Et ipsi populus ejus erunt, et ipse Deus cum eis erit eorum Deus :
4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there shall be no more death or mourning, wailing or pain, (for) the old order has passed away."	4 et absterget Deus omnem lacrimam ab oculis eorum : et mors ultra non erit, neque luctus, neque clamor, neque dolor erit ultra, quia prima abierunt.
5 The one who sat on the throne said, "Behold, I make all things new." Then he said, "Write these words down, for they are trustworthy and true."	5 Et dixit qui sedebat in throno : Ecce nova facio omnia. Et dixit mihi : Scribe, quia hæc verba fidelissima sunt, et vera.
6 He said to me, "They are accomplished. I (am) the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give a gift from the spring of life-giving water.	6 Et dixit mihi : Factum est : ego sum alpha et omega, initium et finis. Ego sitienti dabo de fonte aquæ vitæ, gratis.
7 The victor will inherit these gifts, and I shall be his God, and he will be my son.	7 Qui vicerit, possidebit hæc : et ero illi Deus, et ille erit mihi filius.
8 But as for cowards, the unfaithful, the depraved, murderers, the unchaste, sorcerers, idol-worshipers, and deceivers of every sort, their lot is in the burning pool of fire and sulfur, which is the second death."	8 Timidis autem, et incredulis, et execratis, et homicidis, et fornicatoribus, et veneficis, et idolatris, et omnibus mendacibus, pars illorum erit in stagno ardenti igne et sulphure : quod est mors secunda.
9 One of the seven angels who held the seven bowls filled with the seven last plagues came and said to me, "Come here. I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb."	9 Et venit unus de septem angelis habentibus phialas plenas septem plagis novissimis, et locutus est mecum, dicens : Veni, et ostendam tibi sponsam, uxorem Agni.
10 He took me in spirit to a great, high mountain and showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God.	10 Et sustulit me in spiritu in montem magnum et altum, et ostendit mihi civitatem sanctam Jerusalem descendentem de cælo a Deo,
11 It gleamed with the splendor of God. Its radiance was like that of a precious stone, like jasper, clear as crystal.	11 habentem claritatem Dei : et lumen ejus simile lapidi pretioso tamquam lapidi jaspidis, sicut crystallum.
12 It had a massive, high wall, with twelve gates where twelve angels were stationed and on which names were inscribed, (the names) of the twelve tribes of the Israelites.	12 Et habebat murum magnum, et altum, habentem portas duodecim : et in portis angelos duodecim, et nomina inscripta, quæ sunt nomina duodecim tribuum filiorum Israël :
13 There were three gates facing east, three north, three south, and three west.	13 ab oriente portæ tres, et ab aquilone portæ tres, et ab austro portæ tres, et ab occasu portæ tres.
14 The wall of the city had twelve courses of stones as its foundation, on which were inscribed the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.	14 Et murus civitatis habens fundamenta duodecim, et in ipsis duodecim nomina duodecim apostolorum Agni.
15 The one who spoke to me held a gold measuring rod to measure the city, its gates, and its wall.	15 Et qui loquebatur mecum, habebat mensuram arundineam auream, ut metiretur civitatem, et portas ejus, et murum.
16 The city was square, its length the same as (also) its width. He measured the city with the rod and found it fifteen hundred miles in length and width and height.	16 Et civitas in quadro posita est, et longitudo ejus tanta est quanta et latitudo : et mensus est civitatem de arundine aurea per stadia duodecim millia : et longitudo, et altitudo, et latitudo ejus æqualia sunt.
17 He also measured its wall: one hundred and forty-four cubits according to the standard unit of measurement the angel used.	17 Et mensus est murum ejus centum quadraginta quatuor cubitorum, mensura hominis, quæ est angeli.
18 The wall was constructed of jasper, while the city was pure gold, clear as glass.	18 Et erat structura muri ejus ex lapide jaspide : ipsa vero civitas aurum mundum simile vitro mundo.
19 The foundations of the city wall were decorated with every precious stone; the first course of stones was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald,	19 Et fundamenta muri civitatis omni lapide pretioso ornata. Fundamentum primum, jaspis : secundum, sapphirus : tertium, calcedonius : quartum, smaragdus :
20 the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh hyacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.	20 quintum, sardonyx : sextum, sardius : septimum, chrysolithus : octavum, beryllus : nonum, topazius : decimum, chrysoprasus : undecimum, hyacinthus : duodecimum, amethystus.
21 The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each of the gates made from a single pearl; and the street of the city was of pure gold, transparent as glass.	21 Et duodecim portæ, duodecim margaritæ sunt, per singulas : et singulæ portæ erant ex singulis margaritis : et platea civitatis aurum mundum, tamquam vitrum perlucidum.
22 I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God almighty and the Lamb.	22 Et templum non vidi in ea : Dominus enim Deus omnipotens templum illius est, et Agnus.
23 The city had no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gave it light, and its lamp was the Lamb.	23 Et civitas non eget sole neque luna ut luceant in ea, nam claritas Dei illuminavit eam, et lucerna ejus est Agnus.
24 The nations will walk by its light, and to it the kings of the earth will bring their treasure.	24 Et ambulabunt gentes in lumine ejus : et reges terræ afferent gloriam suam et honorem in illam.
25 During the day its gates will never be shut, and there will be no night there.	25 Et portæ ejus non claudentur per diem : nox enim non erit illic.
26 The treasure and wealth of the nations will be brought there,	26 Et afferent gloriam et honorem gentium in illam.
27 but nothing unclean will enter it, nor any (one) who does abominable things or tells lies. Only those will enter whose names are written in the Lamb's book of life.	27 Non intrabit in eam aliquod coinquinatum, aut abominationem faciens et mendacium, nisi qui scripti sunt in libro vitæ Agni.
