Revelation 21:22-27

New International Reader's Version

²² I didn’t see a temple in the city. That’s because the Lamb and the Lord God who rules over all are its temple. ²³ The city does not need the sun or moon to shine on it. God’s glory is its light, and the Lamb is its lamp. ²⁴ The nations will walk by the light of the city. The kings of the world will bring their glory into it. ²⁵ Its gates will never be shut, because there will be no night there. ²⁶ The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it. ²⁷ Only what is pure will enter the city. No one who causes people to believe lies will enter it. No one who does shameful things will enter it either. Only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life will enter the city.
