¹He showed me a river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb,

KJVAnd^G2532 he shewed^G1166^(G5656) me^G3427 a pure^G2513 river^G4215 of water^G5204 of life^G2222, clear^G2986 as^G5613 crystal^G2930, proceeding^G1607^(G5740) out of^G1537 the throne^G2362 of God^G2316 and^G2532 of the Lamb^G721.

² in the middle of its street. On this side of the river and on that was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruits, yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

KJVIn^G1722 the midst^G3319 of the street^G4113 of it^G846, and^G2532 on either^G2532 side^G1782^G1782 of the river^G4215, was there the tree^G3586 of life^G2222, which bare^G4160^(G5723) twelve^G1427 manner of fruits^G2590, and yielded^G591^(G5723) her^G846 fruit^G2590 every^G2596^G1538^G1520 month^G3376: and^G2532 the leaves^G5444 of the tree^G3586 were for^G1519 the healing^G2322 of the nations^G1484.

³ There will be no curse any more. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and his servants will serve him.

KJVAnd^G2532 there shall be^G2071^(G5704) no^G3756 more^G2089^G3956 curse^G2652: but^G2532 the throne^G2362 of God^G2316 and^G2532 of the Lamb^G721 shall be^G2071^(G5704) in^G1722 it^G846; and^G2532 his^G846 servants^G1401 shall serve^G3000^(G5692) him^G846:

⁴ They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads.

KJVAnd^G2532 they shall see^G3700^(G5695) his^G846 face^G4383; and^G2532 his^G846 name^G3686 shall be in^G1909 their^G846 foreheads^G3359.

⁵ There will be no night, and they need no lamp light or sun light; for the Lord God will illuminate them. They will reign forever and ever.

KJVAnd^G2532 there shall be^G2071^(G5704) no^G3756 night^G3571 there^G1563; and^G2532 they need^G5532 no^G3756 candle^G3088^G2192^(G5719), neither^G2532 light^G5457 of the sun^G2246; for^G3754 the Lord^G2962 God^G2316 giveth^G5461 them^G846 light^G5461^(G5719): and^G2532 they shall reign^G936^(G5692) for^G1519 ever^G165 and ever^G165.

KJVThen^G2532 saith he^G3004^(G5719) unto me^G3427, See^G3708^(G5720) thou do it not^G3361: for^G1063 I am^G1510^(G5748) thy^G4675 fellowservant^G4889, and^G2532 of thy^G4675 brethren^G80 the prophets^G4396, and^G2532 of them which keep^G5083^(G5723) the sayings^G3056 of this^G5127 book^G975: worship^G4352^(G5657) God^G2316.
