Apocalypsis 21
1 Et vidi cælum novum, et terram novam. Primum enim cælum, et prima terra abiit, et mare iam non est.
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the former heaven and the former earth had passed away: and the sea was no more.
2 Et ego Ioannes vidi sanctam civitatem Ierusalem novam descendentem de cælo a Deo, paratam, sicut sponsam ornatam viro suo.
And I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven, from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 Et audivi vocem magnam de throno dicentem: Ecce tabernaculum Dei cum hominibus, et habitabit cum eis. Et ipsi populus eius erunt, et ipse Deus cum eis erit eorum Deus:
And I heard a great voice out of heaven, saying: Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them: and they shall be his people, and God himself will be with them, their God.
4 et absterget Deus omnem lacrymam ab oculis eorum: et mors ultra non erit, neque luctus, neque clamor, neque dolor erit ultra, quia prima abierunt.
And he will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there shall be no more death; neither shall there be any more sorrow, nor crying, nor pain; for the former things have passed away.
5 Et dixit qui sedebat in throno: Ecce nova facio omnia. Et dixit mihi: Scribe, quia hæc verba fidelissima sunt, et vera.
And he that sat upon the throne said: Behold, I make all things new. And he said to me: Write, for these words are true and faithful.
6 Et dixit mihi: Factum est. ego sum?, et?: initium, et finis. Ego sitienti dabo de fonte aquæ vitæ, gratis.
And he said to me: It is done; I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him that thirsts, I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely.
7 Qui vicerit, possidebit hæc, et ero illi Deus, et ille erit mihi filius.
He that overcomes, shall inherit these things, and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
9 Et venit unus de septem Angelis habentibus phialas plenas septem plagis novissimis, et locutus est mecum, dicens: Veni, et ostendam tibi sponsam, uxorem Agni.
And there came one of the seven angels that had the seven cups full of the seven last plagues; and he talked with me, saying: Come hither, and I will show you the bride, the Lamb’s wife.
10 Et sustulit me in spiritu in montem magnum, et altum, et ostendit mihi civitatem sanctam Ierusalem descendentem de cælo a Deo,
And he carried me away in spirit to a mountain, great and high, and showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,
11 habentem claritatem Dei: et lumen eius simile lapidi pretioso tamquam lapidi iaspidis, sicut crystallum.
having the glory of God: that which gave it light was like a most costly stone, like jasper-stone, brilliant as crystal.
12 Et habebat murum magnum, et altum, habentem portas duodecim: et in portis Angelos duodecim, et nomina inscripta, quæ sunt nomina duodecim tribuum filiorum Israel.
It had a wall, great and high; and it had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel;
13 Ab Oriente portæ tres: et ab Aquilone portæ tres: et ab Austro portæ tres: et ab Occasu portæ tres.
on the east, three gates; on the north, three gates; on the south, three gates; and on the west, three gates.
14 Et murus civitatis habens fundamenta duodecim, et in ipsis duodecim nomina duodecim Apostolorum Agni.
And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 Et qui loquebatur mecum, habebat mensuram arundineam auream, ut metiretur civitatem, et portas eius, et murum.
And he that talked with me had a measure, a golden reed, that he might measure the city, and its gates, and its wall.
16 et civitas in quadro posita est, et longitudo eius tanta est quanta et latitudo: et mensus est civitatem de arundine aurea per stadia duodecim millia: et longitudo, et altitudo, et latitudo eius æqualia sunt.
And the city lies square: and its length is as great as its breadth. And he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs: the length, and the breadth, and the hight of it are equal.
17 Et mensus est murum eius centem quadraginta quattuor cubitorum, mensura hominis, quæ est angeli.
And he measured the wall of it, a hundred and forty-four cubits, the measure of a man, that is, of an angel.
18 Et erat structura muri eius ex lapide iaspide: ipsa vero civitas aurum mundum simile vitro mundo.
And the wall of it was built of jasper; and the city was pure gold, like clear glass.
19 Et fundamenta muri civitatis omni lapide pretioso ornata. Fundamentum primum, iaspis: secundum, sapphirus: tertium, calcedonius: quartum, smaragdus:
And the foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with every costly stone: the first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, chalcedony; the fourth, emerald;
20 quintum, sardonyx: sextum, sardius: septimum, chrysolithus: octavum, beryllus: nonum, topazius: decimum, chrysoprasus: undecimum, hyacinthus: duodecimum, amethystus.
the fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, crysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, topaz; the tenth, chrysoprase; the eleventh, hyacinth; the twelfth, amethyst.
21 Et duodecim portæ, duodecim margaritæ sunt, per singulas: et singulæ portæ erant ex singulis margaritis: et platea civitatis aurum mundum, tamquam vitrum perlucidum.
And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; every gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, like clear glass.
22 Et templum non vidi in ea. Dominus enim Deus omnipotens templum illius est, et Agnus.
And I saw no temple in it: for the Lord God the Almighty, and the Lamb, are its temple.
23 Et civitas non eget sole, neque luna ut luceant in ea. nam claritas Dei illuminavit eam, et lucerna eius est Agnus.
And the city had no need of the sun, nor of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God gave it light, and the lamp of it is the Lamb.
24 Et ambulabunt gentes in lumine eius: et reges terræ afferent gloriam suam, et honorem in illam.
And the nations shall walk by the light of it; and the kings of the earth bring their glory and their honor into it.
25 Et portæ eius non claudentur per diem: nox enim non erit illic.
And its gates shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.
26 Et afferent gloriam, et honorem gentium in illam.
And they shall bring the glory and honor of the nations into it.
27 Non intrabit in eam aliquod coinquinatum, aut abominationem faciens, et mendacium, nisi qui scripti sunt in libro vitæ Agni.
And there shall not enter it any thing unclean, or that does what is detestable, or that makes a lie: but those who are written in the Lamb’s book of life.
