1Then the angel showed me a river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb
1ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩⲧⲁⲙⲟⲓ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲓⲁⲣⲟ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲱⲛϧ ⲉϥⲫⲟⲣⲓ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩ⳿ⲭⲣⲓⲥⲧⲁⲗⲗⲟⲛ ⲉϥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲁ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲑⲣⲟⲛⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓϩⲓⲏⲃ.
2down the middle of the main street of the city. On either side of the river stood a tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit and yielding a fresh crop for each month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations.

3No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be within the city, and His servants will worship Him.

5There will be no more night in the city, and they will have no need for the light of a lamp or of the sun. For the Lord God will shine on them, and they will reign forever and ever.

6Then the angel said to me, “These words are faithful and true. The Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent His angel to show His servants what must soon take place.”

8And I am John, who heard and saw these things. And when I had heard and seen them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who had shown me these things.

9But he said to me, “Do not do that! I am a fellow servant with you and your brothers the prophets, and with those who keep the words of this book. Worship God!”

17The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” Let the one who hears say, “Come!” And let the one who is thirsty come, and the one who desires the water of life drink freely.
