Otkrivenje 22

1 Anđeo mi pokaže rijeku vode života, bistru kao prozirac, što izvire iz Božjega i Jaganjčeva prijestolja

2 i teče sredinom glavne ulice. S obiju strana rijeke raste drvo života koje donosi rod dvanaest puta - svakoga mjeseca. Lišćem tog stabla liječe se narodi.
3 Neće više biti nikakva prokletstva. Božje i Jaganjčevo prijestolje bit će ondje i njihovi će im se sluge klanjati.4 Gledat će njegovo lice, a njegovo će im ime biti napisano na čelima.

5 Neće ondje biti noći niti će trebati da im svijetle svjetiljke ili Sunce. Obasjavat će ih Gospodin Bog. Oni će kraljevati u vijeke vjekova.
6 Anđeo mi reče: "Vjerodostojne su i istinite ove riječi. Gospodin Bog koji nadahnjuje proroke poslao je svojega anđela da pokaže svojim slugama što će se uskoro dogoditi."

Isus dolazi

7 "Evo, uskoro dolazim! Blago onima koji vrše proročke riječi ove knjige!"8 Ja, Ivan, sve sam to čuo i vidio. A kad sam sve čuo i vidio, pao sam pred noge anđelu koji mi je to pokazao da se poklonim.9 Ali on ponovi: "Ne klanjaj se meni! Samo sam Božji sluga, baš kao ti i tvoja braća proroci, kao i svi koji su poslušni riječima ove knjige. Bogu se klanjaj!"10 Zatim mi reče: "Ne zapečaćuj proročke riječi ove knjige da ostanu tajnom jer je vrijeme blizu.

11 Neka nepravednici i dalje čine nepravdu. Neka se okaljani i dalje kaljaju. Pravednici neka i dalje čine što je pravedno, a sveti neka se i dalje posvećuju!"
12 "Evo, uskoro dolazim i svakome ću platiti prema njegovim djelima.13 Ja sam Alfa i Omega, Početak i Svršetak, Prvi i Posljednji.14 Blago onima koji peru svoje haljine! Bit će im dopušteno ući kroz vrata u grad i jesti plod sa stabla života.

15 A izvan grada ostat će psi - vračari, bludnici, ubojice i idolopoklonici te svi koji vole i govore laž.
16 Ja, Isus, poslao sam svojega anđela da ti dade ovu poruku za Crkve. Ja sam onaj od kojega je David nastao i nasljednik njegovoga prijestolja. Zvijezda sam Danica."17 Duh i zaručnica govore: "Dođi!" I tko god ovo čuje, neka kaže: "Dođi!" Neka dođe tko je žedan i neka besplatno zahvati vodu života!18 Svakomu tko sluša proročke riječi ove knjige svjedočim: Doda li tko išta onomu što je ovdje napisano, Bog će mu dodati zla opisana u ovoj knjizi.

19 A oduzme li tko nešto od proročkih riječi zapisanih u ovoj knjizi, Bog će mu oduzeti njegov udjel sa stabla života i Sveti grad opisan u ovoj knjizi.
20 Svjedok svega ovoga kaže: "Da, uskoro dolazim!"
Amen! Dođi, Gospodine Isuse!21 Neka je milost Gospodina Isusa Krista sa svima vama.

Revelation 22

1 Thent the angelt showed me the river of the water of life – water as clear as crystal – pouring outt from the throne of God and of the Lamb,2 flowing down the middle of the city’st main street.t On each sidet of the river is the tree of life producing twelve kindst of fruit, yielding its fruit every month of the year.t Its leaves are for the healing of the nations.3 And there will no longer be any curse,t and the throne of God and the Lamb will be in the city.t Hist servantst will worshipt him,4 and they will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads.

5 Night will be no more, and they will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, because the Lord God will shine on them, and they will reign forever and ever.

A Final Reminder

6 Thent the angelt said to me, “These words are reliablet and true. The Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, has sent his angel to show his servantst what must happen soon.”

7 (Look! I am coming soon!
Blessed is the one who keeps the words of the prophecy expressed in this book.)s
8 I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things,t and when I heard and saw them,t I threw myself downt to worship at the feet of the angel who was showing them to me.9 Butt he said to me, “Do not do this!t I am a fellow servantt with you and with your brothers the prophets, and with those who obeyt the words of this book. Worship God!”10 Thent he said to me, “Do not seal up the words of the prophecy contained in this book, because the time is near.

11 The evildoer must continue to do evil,t and the one who is morally filthyt must continue to be filthy. Thet one who is righteous must continue to act righteously, and the one who is holy must continue to be holy.”

12 (Look! I am coming soon,
and my reward is with me to payt each one according to what he has done!

13 I am the Alpha and the Omega,
the first and the last,
the beginning and the end!)s
14 Blessed are those who wash their robes so they can have accesst to the tree of life and can enter into the city by the gates.

15 Outside are the dogs and the sorcererst and the sexually immoral, and the murderers, and the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood!t
16 “I, Jesus, have sent my angel to testify to you about these things for the churches. I am the root and the descendant of David, the bright morning star!”t

17 And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let the one who hears say: “Come!” And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who wants it take the water of life free of charge.
18 I testify to the one who hears the words of the prophecy contained in this book: If anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues describedt in this book.

19 And if anyone takes away from the words of this book of prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of lifes and in the holy city that are described in this book.
20 The one who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon!” Amen! Come, Lord Jesus!21 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all.s
