I also saw the holy city—the New Jerusalem—coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. [a] I also heard a loud voice from the throne, saying,

“Behold, the dwelling of God is among men,
    and He shall tabernacle among them.
They shall be His people,
    and God Himself shall be among them
    and be their God.[b]
He shall wipe away every tear from their eyes,[c]
    and death shall be no more.
Nor shall there be mourning or crying or pain any longer,
    for the former things have passed away.”
