21:15 The angel 9 who spoke to me had a golden measuring rod with which to measure the city and its foundation stones and wall. 21:16 Now 10 the city is laid out as a square, 11 its length and width the same. He 12 measured the city with the measuring rod 13 at fourteen hundred miles 14 (its length and width and height are equal). 21:17 He also measured its wall, one hundred forty-four cubits 15 according to human measurement, which is also the angel’s. 16 21:18 The city’s 17 wall is made 18 of jasper and the city is pure gold, like transparent glass. 19 21:19 The foundations of the city’s wall are decorated 20 with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation is jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, 21 the fourth emerald, 21:20 the fifth onyx, 22 the sixth carnelian, 23 the seventh chrysolite, 24 the eighth beryl, 25 the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, 26 the eleventh jacinth, 27 and the twelfth amethyst. 21:21 And the twelve gates are twelve pearls – each one of the gates is made from just one pearl! The 28 main street 29 of the city is pure gold, like transparent glass.
21:22 Now 30 I saw no temple in the city, because the Lord God – the All-Powerful 31 – and the Lamb are its temple.
