21The twelve gates were twelve pearls. Each one of the gates was made of one pearl. The street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass.
22I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God, the Almighty, and the Lamb, are its temple.
23The city has no need for the sun, neither of the moon, to shine, for the very glory of God illuminated it, and its lamp is the Lamb.
24The nations will walk in its light. The kings of the earth bring their glory into it.
25Its gates will in no way be shut by day (for there will be no night there),
26and they will bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it.
27There will in no way enter into it anything profane, or one who causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb`s book of life.
