The River of Life

22 Then the angel^[a] showed me ^(A)the river of ^(B)the water of life, bright as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb ² through the middle of ^(C)the street of the city; ^(D)also, on either side of the river, ^(E)the tree of life^[b] with its twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit each month. The leaves of the tree were ^(F)for the healing of the nations. ^3 (G)No longer will there be anything accursed, but ^(H)the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it, and ^(I)his servants will worship him. ^4 (J)They will see his face, and ^(K)his name will be on their foreheads.

¹⁴ Blessed are those who ^(A)wash their robes,^[a] so that they may have the right to ^(B)the tree of life and that ^(C)they may enter the city by the gates.
