Revelation of John 22

CHAPTER 22 The River of Life

1 And he showed to me [²river ¹a pure] of water of life, bright as crystal, going forth from out of the throne of God and of the lamb. 2 In the midst of her square, and of the river, from this side here and from that side there, a tree of life producing [²fruits ¹twelve], [²by ³month ¹each] rendering its fruit; and the leaves of the tree were for treatment of the nations. 3 And every great curse shall not be any longer; and the throne of God and of the lamb [²in ³her ¹will be]; and his bondmen shall serve to him. 4 And they shall see his face; and his name is upon their foreheads. 5 And [²night ¹there will be no] there; and [²no need ¹they have] of a lamp, and the light of the sun, for the Lord God enlightens them; and they shall reign into the eons of the eons. 6 And he said to me, These words are trustworthy and true. And the Lord God of the spirits of the prophets sent his angel to show to his bondmen what must take place quickly. 7 Behold, I come quickly. Blessed is the one giving heed to the words of the prophecy of this scroll. 8 And I John am the one hearing and seeing these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell to do obeisance before the feet of the angel showing to me these things. 9 And he says to me, See that you do not! [³your fellow-servant ¹for ²I am], and of your brethren the prophets, and of the ones giving heed to the words of this scroll; to God do obeisance! 10 And he says to me, You should not set a seal upon the words of the prophecy of this scroll, for the time is near. 11 The one wronging, let him wrong still! And the filthy one, let him be filthy still! And the righteous, [²righteousness ¹let him do] still! And the holy one, let him be sanctified still! 12 Behold, I come quickly, and my wage is with me, to render to each as [²work ³will be ¹his].

Alpha and Omega

13 I am the alpha and the omega, the beginning and end, the first and the last. 14 Blessed are the ones observing his commandments, that [²will be ¹their authority] unto the tree of life, and by the gatehouses they should enter into the city. 15 Outside are the dogs, and the administers of potions, and the fornicators, and the murderers, and the idolaters, and every one being fond of and committing a lie. 16 I Jesus sent forth my angel to testify to you these things unto the assemblies. I am the root and the race of David, the [³star ¹bright ²early morning]. 17 And the spirit and the bride say, Come! And the one hearing let say, Come! And the one thirsting, let come! The one wanting, let take water of life without charge! 18 I bear witness to every one hearing the words of the prophecy of this scroll; if anyone should add upon these, [²will place ³upon ⁴him ¹God] the calamities being written in this scroll. 19 And if anyone should remove from the words of the scroll of this prophecy, may God remove his part from the tree of life, and from the [²city ¹holy] of the things having been written in this scroll. 20 [⁴says ¹The one ²testifying ³these things], Yes, I come quickly. Amen. Yes, come O Lord Jesus! 21 The favor of our Lord Jesus Christ be with all the holy ones. Amen.
