Αποκαλυψις Ιωαννου 21
1 και ειδον ουρανον καινον και γην καινην ο γαρ πρωτος ουρανος και η πρωτη γη παρηλθεν και η θαλασσα ουκ εστιν ετι
Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more.
2 και την πολιν την αγιαν ιερουσαλημ καινην ειδον καταβαινουσαν εκ του ουρανου απο του θεου ητοιμασμενην ως νυμφην κεκοσμημενην τω ανδρι αυτης
I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, that came down out of heaven from God, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband.
3 και ηκουσα φωνης μεγαλης εκ του ουρανου λεγουσης ιδου η σκηνη του θεου μετα των ανθρωπων και σκηνωσει μετ αυτων και αυτοι λαος αυτου εσονται και αυτος ο θεος εσται μετ αυτων
I heard a great voice from the throne saying, “Look! The dwelling place of God is with human beings, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and he will be their God.
4 και εξαλειψει παν δακρυον απο των οφθαλμων αυτων και ο θανατος ουκ εσται ετι ουτε πενθος ουτε κραυγη ουτε πονος ουκ εσται ετι οτι τα πρωτα απηλθον
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death, or grieving, or crying, or pain. The former things have passed away.
5 και ειπεν ο καθημενος επι τω θρονω ιδου παντα καινα ποιω και λεγει μοι γραψον οτι ουτοι οι λογοι αληθινοι και πιστοι εισιν
The one who was seated on the throne said, “Look! I make all things new.” He said, “Write this down because these words are trustworthy and true.”
6 και ειπεν μοι γεγονα [εγω] το αλφα και το ω η αρχη και το τελος εγω τω διψωντι δωσω εκ της πηγης του υδατος της ζωης δωρεαν
He said to me, “These things are done! I am the alpha and the omega, the beginning and the end. To the one who thirsts I will give drink without cost from the spring of the water of life.
7 ο νικων κληρονομησει ταυτα και εσομαι αυτω θεος και αυτος εσται μοι υιος
The one who conquers will inherit these things, and I will be his God, and he will be my son.
9 και ηλθεν εις εκ των επτα αγγελων των εχοντων τας επτα φιαλας γεμουσας των επτα πληγων των εσχατων και ελαλησεν μετ εμου λεγων δευρο δειξω σοι την γυναικα την νυμφην του αρνιου
One of the seven angels came to me, the one who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues, and he said, “Come here. I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb.”
10 και απηνεγκεν με εν πνευματι επ ορος μεγα και υψηλον και εδειξεν μοι την πολιν [την μεγαλην] την αγιαν ιερουσαλημ καταβαινουσαν εκ του ουρανου απο του θεου
Then 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 εχουσαν την δοξαν του θεου ο φωστηρ αυτης ομοιος λιθω τιμιωτατω ως λιθω ιασπιδι κρυσταλλιζοντι
Jerusalem had the glory of God, and its brilliance was like a very precious jewel, like a stone of crystal-clear jasper.
12 εχουσα τειχος μεγα και υψηλον εχουσα πυλωνας δωδεκα και επι τοις πυλωσιν αγγελους δωδεκα και ονοματα επιγεγραμμενα α εστιν [ονοματα] των δωδεκα φυλων [των] υιων ισραηλ
It had a great, high wall with twelve gates, with twelve angels at the gates. On the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel.
13 απο ανατολων πυλωνες τρεις και απο βορρα πυλωνες τρεις και απο νοτου πυλωνες τρεις και απο δυσμων πυλωνες τρεις
On the east were three gates, on the north three gates, on the south three gates, and on the west three gates.
14 και το τειχος της πολεως εχον θεμελιους δωδεκα και επ αυτων δωδεκα ονοματα των δωδεκα αποστολων του αρνιου
The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the twelve names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
15 και ο λαλων μετ εμου ειχεν μετρον καλαμον χρυσουν ινα μετρηση την πολιν και τους πυλωνας αυτης [και το τειχος αυτης]
The one who spoke with me had a measuring rod made of gold to measure the city, its gates, and its wall.
16 και η πολις τετραγωνος κειται και το μηκος αυτης οσον το πλατος και εμετρησεν την πολιν τω καλαμω επι σταδιους δωδεκα χιλιαδων [δωδεκα] το μηκος και το πλατος και το υψος αυτης ισα εστιν
The city was laid out in a square; its length was the same as its width. He measured the city with the measuring rod, twelve thousand stadia in length (its length, width, and height were the same).
17 και εμετρησεν το τειχος αυτης εκατον τεσσαρακοντα τεσσαρων πηχων μετρον ανθρωπου ο εστιν αγγελου
He also measured its wall, 144 cubits thick by human measurement (which is also the angel's measure).
18 και ην η ενδομησις του τειχους αυτης ιασπις και η πολις χρυσιον καθαρον ομοιον υελω καθαρω
The wall was built of jasper and the city of pure gold, like clear glass.
19 [και] οι θεμελιοι του τειχους της πολεως παντι λιθω τιμιω κεκοσμημενοι ο θεμελιος ο πρωτος ιασπις ο δευτερος σαπφειρος ο τριτος χαλκηδων ο τεταρτος σμαραγδος
The foundations of the wall were adorned with every kind of precious stone. The first was jasper, the second was sapphire, the third was agate, the fourth was emerald,
20 ο πεμπτος σαρδονυξ ο εκτος σαρδιος ο εβδομος χρυσολιθος ο ογδοος βηρυλλος ο ενατος τοπαζιον ο δεκατος χρυσοπρασος ο ενδεκατος υακινθος ο δωδεκατος αμεθυσος
the fifth was onyx, the sixth was carnelian, the seventh was chrysolite, the eighth was beryl, the ninth was topaz, the tenth was chrysoprase, the eleventh was jacinth, and the twelfth was amethyst.
21 και οι δωδεκα πυλωνες δωδεκα μαργαριται ανα εις εκαστος των πυλωνων ην εξ ενος μαργαριτου και η πλατεια της πολεως χρυσιον καθαρον ως υελος διαυγης
The twelve gates were twelve pearls; each of the gates was made from a single pearl. The streets of the city were pure gold, like transparent glass.
22 και ναον ουκ ειδον εν αυτη ο γαρ κυριος ο θεος ο παντοκρατωρ ναος αυτης εστιν και το αρνιον
I saw no temple in the city, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.
23 και η πολις ου χρειαν εχει του ηλιου ουδε της σεληνης ινα φαινωσιν αυτη η γαρ δοξα του θεου εφωτισεν αυτην και ο λυχνος αυτης το αρνιον
The city had no need of the sun or the moon in order to shine on it because the glory of God shone on it, and its lamp is the Lamb.
24 και περιπατησουσιν τα εθνη δια του φωτος αυτης και οι βασιλεις της γης φερουσιν αυτω δοξαν και τιμην των εθνων εις αυτην
The nations will walk by the light of that city. The kings of the earth will bring their splendor into it.
25 και οι πυλωνες αυτης ου μη κλεισθωσιν ημερας νυξ γαρ ουκ εσται εκει
Its gates will not be shut during the day, and there will be no night there.
26 και οισουσιν την δοξαν και την τιμην των εθνων εις αυτην
They will bring the splendor and the honor of the nations into it,
27 και ου μη εισελθη εις αυτην παν κοινον και ποιουν βδελυγμα και ψευδος ει μη οι γεγραμμενοι εν τω βιβλιω της ζωης του αρνιου
but nothing unclean will ever enter into it, nor anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb's Book of Life.
