Chapter
22
nd he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal,
proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2 In the midst
of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was
there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits,
and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the
tree were for the healing of the nations.
3 And
there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb
shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:
4 And
they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
5 And
there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of
the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for
ever and ever.

6 And
he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God
of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things
which must shortly be done.
7
Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the
prophecy of this book.
8 And I
John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I
fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these
things.
9 Then
saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of
thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this
book: worship God.
10 And
he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for
the time is at hand.
11 He
that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him
be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still:
and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
12 And,
behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man
according as his work shall be.
13 I am
Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.

Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to
the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
15 For
without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and
idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
16 I
Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the
churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and
morning star.
17 And
the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come.
And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the
water of life freely.
18 For
I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this
book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the
plagues that are written in this book:
19 And
if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy,
God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the
holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen.
Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
21 The
grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
