Olphong 21
1 Te phoeiah vaan thai neh diklai thai ka hmuh. Lamhma kah vaan neh lamhma kah diklai tah khum coeng tih tuitunli om voel pawh.
I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth have passed away, and the sea is no more.
2 A cim kho thai Jerusalem te khaw a va ham aka rhuengphong tih aka thoeihcam vasakung bangla vaan Pathen taeng lamkah ha suntla te ka hmuh.
I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband.
3 Te vaengah ngolkhoel lamkah ol ue ka yaak. “Pathen kah dap tah hlang rhoek taengah om coeng ke. Te dongah amih taengah rhaeh vetih amih khaw a pilnam la om uh ni. Pathen amah khaw amih taengah om vetih amih kah Pathen la om ni.
I heard a loud voice out of heaven saying, “Behold, God’s dwelling is with people; and he will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God.
4 Te vaengah amih mik kah mikphi te boeih a huih vetih dueknah om voel mahpawh. Ngueknah neh rhungrhahnah, tlohtat om voel mahpawh. Lamhma kah aka om tah khum coeng.
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; neither will there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain any more. The first things have passed away.”
5 Te vaengah ngolkhoel sokah aka ngol loh, “A cungkuem he a thai la ka saii coeng he,” a ti. Te phoeiah, “Hekah olka tah a uepom tih oltak la a om dongah daek lah,” a ti.
He who sits on the throne said, “Behold, I am making all things new.” He said, “Write, for these words of God are faithful and true.”
6 Te phoeiah kai taengah ka coeng coeng. Kai tah Alpha neh Omega, hmapai neh hmakhap la ka om. Kai loh tui aka hal taengah hingnah tuisih lamkah tui te a yoe la ka paek ni.
He said to me, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give freely to him who is thirsty from the spring of the water of life.
7 Aka noeng loh he he a pang ni. Te vaengah anih ham Pathen la ka om vetih anih khaw ka ca la om ni.
He who overcomes, I will give him these things. I will be his God, and he will be my son.
9 Te phoeiah bunang parhih aka pom puencawn parhih khuikah pakhat te ha pawk tih a hnukkhueng kah lucik parhih te muep hah. Te dongah kamah taengah a thui tih, “Halo lah, Tuca kah a yuu vasakung te nang kan tueng eh?,” a ti.
One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls which were loaded with the seven last plagues came, and he spoke with me, saying, “Come here. I will show you the bride, the Lamb’s wife.”
10 Mueihla neh tlang puei tlang sang la kai n'khuen tih Jerusalem kho cim vaan Pathen taeng lamkah ha suntlak te kai n'tueng.
He carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the holy city, Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God,
11 Pathen kah thangpomnah te a khueh. A aa tah lung vang phek la om tih maihae lung bangla cilrhik.
having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal;
12 Pangbueng khaw a len neh a sang neh om tih vongka hlainit neh te vongka ah puencawn hlainit om. Te phoeiah te kah ming daek tangtae dongah Israel ca rhoek koca hlainit kah ming te om.
having a great and high wall with twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
13 Khothoeng ah thohka pathum om. Tlangpuei ah khaw thohka pathum, tuithim ah khaw thohka pathum, khotlak ah khaw thohka pathum om.
On the east were three gates, and on the north three gates, and on the south three gates, and on the west three gates.
14 Kho kah pangbueng tah khoengim hlainit om tih te rhoek dongah Tuca kah caeltueih rhoek hlainit kah ming hlainit te om.
The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them twelve names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb.
15 Te phoeiah kai taengkah aka cal loh kho khaw, thohka neh pangbueng te nueh ham sui cungkui a pom.
He who spoke with me had for a measure a golden reed to measure the city, its gates, and its walls.
16 Khopuei tah hniboeng la om tih a yun neh a daang te vai uh rhoi. Kho te cungkui neh nueh hatah phalong thawng hlainit lo. A yun khaw, a daang khaw, a sang khaw vanat la om.
The city is square. Its length is as great as its width. He measured the city with the reed: twelve thousand twelve stadia. Its length, width, and height are equal.
17 Pangbueng te a nueh vaengah puencawn la aka om hlang kah cungnueh ah dong ya sawmli pali lo.
Its wall is one hundred forty-four cubits, by the measure of a man, that is, of an angel.
18 Pangbueng saknah te maihae neh a sak. Khopuei tah sui cilh neh a sak tih hmaidan phek la cil.
The construction of its wall was jasper. The city was pure gold, like pure glass.
19 Khopuei pangbueng kah khoengim te lung vang cungkuem neh a thoeihcam. Khoengim lamhma te maihae, pabae te minhum, a pathum te rhohumlung, a pali te hingsuep lung,
The foundations of the city’s wall were adorned with all kinds of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire; the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald,

the fifth sardonyx, the sixth sardius, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.

The 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.
22 Tloengkhoelh Pathen Boeipa neh Tuca tah a bawkim la a om coeng dongah a khuiah bawkim te ka hmuh moenih.
I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.
23 Khopuei loh a vang ham khomik neh hla khaw ngoe pawh. Pathen kah thangpomnah neh Tuca kah hmaiim loh a tue coeng.
The city has no need for the sun or moon to shine, for the very glory of God illuminated it and its lamp is the Lamb.
24 Te vaengah Namtom rhoek tah, te kah vangnah dongah pongpa uh vetih diklai manghai rhoek loh amamih kah a thangpomnah te a khuila a khuen uh ni.
The nations will walk in its light. The kings of the earth bring the glory and honor of the nations into it.
25 Te vaengah a thohka loh a khaih hnin ti om loengloeng mahpawh. Te ah te khoyin om mahpawh.
Its gates will in no way be shut by day (for there will be no night there),
26 Namtom rhoek kah a thangpomnah neh hinyahnah te a khuila a khuen uh ni.
and they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it so that they may enter.
27 Te phoeiah Tuca kah hingnah cayol khuiah a daek rhoek pawt atah a khuiah tanghnong boeih khaw, tueilaehnah aka saii khaw, laithae rhoek khaw kun uh loengloeng mahpawh.
There 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.
