Berean Standard Bible
1To pacoengah van kangtha hoi long kangtha to ka hnuk: hmaloe ih van hoi hmaloe ih long loe anghmat boeh; tuipui doeh om ai boeh.
1Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and earth had passed away, and the sea was no more.
2To pacoengah sava sah nongpata mah a sava hanah amthoep het baktih toengah kamthoep van hoiah angzo tathuk, Sithaw khae ih kaciim vangpui, Jerusalem kangtha to kai, Johan mah ka hnuk.
2I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3Khenah van hoiah, Sithaw ohhaih im loe kaminawk khaeah oh boeh, Anih loe nihcae hoi nawnto om tih boeh, nihcae loe Anih ih kami ah om o tih, Sithaw Angmah roe nihcae hoi nawnto om ueloe, nihcae ih Sithaw ah om tih.
3And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying: “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man, and He will dwell with them. They will be His people, and God Himself will be with them as their God.
4Sithaw mah nihcae ih mikkhraetui to huu pae ueloe, duekhaih, palungsethaih, qahhaih hoi nathaih roe om mak ai boeh: kangquem hmuennawk loe laemh o boih boeh, tiah tha hoi hang ih lok to ka thaih.
4‘He will wipe away every tear from their eyes,’ and there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the former things have passed away.”
5Angraeng tangkhang nuiah anghnu kami mah, Khenah, hmuennawk boih kangtha ah ka sak pan boeh, tiah thuih. Anih mah kai khaeah, Tarik ah: hae loknawk loe oepthoh moe, loktang ah oh, tiah ang naa.
5And the One seated on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” Then He said, “Write this down, for these words are faithful and true.”
6Anih mah kai khaeah, Pacoeng boeh! Kai loe Alpha hoi Omega, amtonghaih hoi boenghaih ah ka oh. Tui anghae kami loe hinghaih tuipuek to azom ah ka paek han.
6And He told me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give freely from the spring of the water of life.
7Pazawk kami mah hmuennawk to toep boih tih; kai loe anih ih Sithaw ah ka oh han, anih loe ka caa ah om tih.
7The one who overcomes will inherit all things, and I will be his God, and he will be My son.
8Toe zithaih tawn kaminawk, tang ai kaminawk, panuet thok kaminawk, kami humnawk, tangzat zaw kami hoi zaehaih sah kaminawk, miklet patoh kaminawk, krang bok kaminawk hoi lok amlai kaminawk loe kaat hoi kangqong hmai tuili thungah va tih: hae loe vai hnetto duekhaih ah oh, tiah ang naa.
8But to the cowardly and unbelieving and abominable and murderers and sexually immoral and sorcerers and idolaters and all liars, their place will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur. This is the second death.”
9Hnukkhuem koek nathaih sarihto hoiah kakoi, boengloeng sarihto kasin, vankami sarihto thungah maeto mah, kai khaeah, Haeah angzo ah, Tuucaa ih zu, sava sah tangla to kang patuek han, tiah ang naa.
9Then one of the seven angels with the seven bowls full of the seven final plagues came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.”
10Anih mah kalen parai hoi kasang parai mae ah Muithla hoiah ang caeh haih, van hoiah angzo tathuk, Sithaw khae ih kalen parai vangpui, kaciim Jerusalem to ang patuek,
10And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the holy city of Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from God,
11to vangpui loe Sithaw lensawkhaih hoiah koi: Anih aanghaih loe jasper, tiah thuih ih atho kana thlung baktiah oh moe, crystal thlung baktiah amdueng;
11shining with the glory of God. Its radiance was like a most precious jewel, like a jasper, as clear as crystal.
12to vangpui loe kalen moe, kasang parai tapang to oh, khongkha doeh hatlai hnetto oh, khongkha kruekah vankami hatlai hnetto oh, khongkha kruekah Israel caanawk ih acaeng hatlai hnetto ahmin to angrik:
12The city had a great and high wall with twelve gates inscribed with the names of the twelve tribes of Israel, and twelve angels at the gates.
13ni angzae bangah khongkha thumto; aluek bangah khongkha thumto; aloih bangah khongkha thumto; niduem bangah khongkha thumto oh.
13There were three gates on the east, three on the north, three on the south, and three on the west.
14Vangpui tapang loe thlung hatlai hnetto nuiah sak o, to thlung pongah loe Tuucaa angmah patoeh ih kami hatlai hnetto ahmin to oh.
14The wall of the city had twelve foundations bearing the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15Kai hoi lok kapae vankami loe vangpui, khongkhanawk hoi tapangnawk tah hanah, sui hoiah sak ih cung maeto to a sinh.
15The angel who spoke with me had a golden measuring rod to measure the city and its gates and walls.
16Vangpui loe takii palito oh, kasawk hoi kakawk loe anghmong: anih mah tahhaih cung hoiah vangpui to tah naah, furlong sangto pacoeng, cumvai hnetto oh. Kasawk, kakawk hoi kasang loe angvan boih.
16The city lies foursquare, with its width the same as its length. And he measured the city with the rod, and all its dimensions were equal—12,000 stadia in length and width and height.
17To pacoengah vankami mah vangpui tapang to tah naah, kami maeto ih tahhaih baktiah, vankami ih dong cumvai, qui pali, palito oh.
17And he measured its wall to be 144 cubits, by the human measure the angel was using.
18To ih tapang loe jasper, tiah thuih ih atho kana thlung hoiah sak: vangpui loe kaciim sui hoiah sak moe, hmaidan baktiah caipin.
18The wall was made of jasper, and the city itself of pure gold, as pure as glass.
19Vangpui tapang imcih loe atho kana congca thlung hoiah pathoep o: hmaloe koek imcih thlung loe jasper, hnetto haih loe saphhire, thumto haih loe chalcedony, palito haih loe emerald,
19The foundations of the city walls were adorned with every kind of precious stone: The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald,
20Pangato haih loe sardonyx, tarukto haih loe cardius, sarihto haih loe chrysolite, tazetto haih loe beryl, takawtto haih loe topaz, hato haih loe chrysoprasus, hatlaito haih loe jacinth, hatlai hnetto haih loe amethyst hoiah sak.
20the fifth sardonyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.
21Pale maeto hoiah khongkha maeto sak o, khongkha hatlai hnetto doeh pale hoiah sak boih: vangpui thung ih loklam loe kaciim sui hoiah sak moe, hmaidan baktiah amdueng.
21And the twelve gates were twelve pearls, with each gate consisting of a single pearl. The main street of the city was pure gold, as clear as glass.
22Vangpui thungah tempul ka hnu ai: Thacak Angraeng Sithaw hoi Tuucaa loe tempul ah oh boeh.
22But I saw no temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.
23To vangpui loe ni aeng hoi khrah kamdueng aloe ai boeh: Sithaw lensawkhaih mah aanghaih to paek moe, Tuucaa loe vangpui aanghaih ah oh.
23And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, because the glory of God illuminates the city, and the Lamb is its lamp.
24Pahlong ah kaom prae kaminawk loe to aanghaih thungah caeh o tih: long siangpahrangnawk mah angmacae lensawkhaih to sin o ueloe, pakoehhaih to paek o tih.
24By its light the nations will walk, and into it the kings of the earth will bring their glory.
25Athun qui khongkha to khaa mak ai: khoving doeh om mak ai.
25Its gates will never be shut at the end of the day, because there will be no night there.
26Prae kaminawk mah, lensawkhaih hoi pakoehhaih to vangpui thungah akun o haih tih.
26And into the city will be brought the glory and honor of the nations.
27Ciimcai ai hmuennawk maw, to tih ai boeh loe panuet thok hmuen kaomsak kaminawk hoi amsawnlok thui kami loe a thungah akun o mak ai: Tuucaa hinghaih Cabu thungah ahmin tarik ih kaminawk khue ni akun o tih.
27But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who practices an abomination or a lie, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.
