For the Lord God Almightie, and the Lambe, are the Temple of it.
23** Eſai.60.19. And the citie had no need of the Sunne, neither of the Moone to ſhine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lambe is the light thereof.
24** Eſai.60.3. And the nations of them which are ſaued, ſhall walke in the light of it: and the kings of the earth doe bring their glory and honour into it.
25** Eſai.60.11. And the gates of it ſhall not bee ſhut at all by day: for there ſhall bee no night there.
26And they ſhall bring the glorie and honour of the nations into it.
27And there ſhall in no wiſe enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatſoeuer worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lambes booke of life.
CHAP. XXII.
1 The riuer of the water of life. 2 The tree of life. 5 The light of the Citie of God is himſelfe. 9 And Angel will not be worſhipped. 18 Nothing may bee added to the word of God, nor taken therefrom.

Nd he ſhewed mee a pure riuer of water of life, cleere as Chyſtall, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lambe.
2In the middeſt of the ſtreet of it, and of either ſide of the riuer, was there the tree of life, which bare twelue manner of fruits, and yeelded her fruit euery moneth: and the leaues of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
3And there ſhall be no more curſe, but the throne of God, ⁊ of the Lambe ſhall bee in it, and his ſeruants ſhall ſerue him.
4And they ſhall ſee his face, and his name ſhall be in their foreheads.
5** Chap.21.23. And there ſhalbe no night there, and they need no candle, neither light of the ſunne, for the Lorde God giueth them light, and they ſhall reigne for euer and euer.
6And hee ſaid vnto mee, Theſe ſayings are faithfull and true. And the Lord God of the holy Prophets ſent his Angel to ſhew vnto his ſeruants the things which muſt ſhortly be done.
7Beholde, I come quickly: Bleſſed is he that keepeth the ſayings of the prophecie of this booke.
8And I Iohn ſaw theſe things, and heard them. And when I had heard and ſeene, I fell downe, to worſhip before the feet of the Angel, which ſhewed me theſe things.
9Then ſaith he vnto me, ** Chap.19.10. See thou doe it not: for I am thy fellow ſeruant, and of thy brethren the Prophets, and of them which keepe the ſayings of this booke: worſhip God.
10And hee ſaith vnto mee, Seale not the ſayings of the prophecie of this booke: for the time is at hand.
11He that is vniuſt, let him be vniuſt ſtill: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy ſtill: and hee that is righteous, let him bee righteous ſtill: and hee that is holy, let him be holy ſtill.
12And behold, I come quickly, and my reward is with mee, ** Rom.2.6. to giue euery man according as his worke ſhall be.
13I am Alpha and Omega, ** Eſa.41.4. and 44.6. the beginning and the end, the firſt ⁊ the laſt.
14Bleſſed are they that do his commandements, that they may haue right to the tree of life, and may enter in thorow the gates into the citie.
15For without are dogs, and ſorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whoſoeuer loueth and maketh a lie.
16I Ieſus haue ſent mine Angel to teſtifie vnto you theſe things in the Churches. I am the roote and the offſpring of David, and the bright and morning ſtarre.
17And the Spirit of the Bride ſay, Come. And let him that heareth ſay, Come. ** Eſa.55.1. And let him that is athirſt, come. And whoſoeuer will, let him take the water of life freely.
18For I teſtifie vnto euery man that heareth the wordes of the prophecie of this booke, ** Deut.4.2. prou. 30.6. If any man ſhal adde vnto theſe things, God ſhall adde vnto him the plagues, that are written in this booke.
19And if any man ſhall take away from the wordes of the booke of this prophecie, God ſhal tkae away his part out of the booke of life, and out of the holy citie, and from the things which are written in this booke.
20He which teſtifieth theſe things, ſaith, Surely, I come quickly. Amen. Euen ſo, Come Lord Ieſus.
21The grace of our Lord Ieſus Chriſt be with you all. Amen.
FINIS.
