Revelation

Revelation 21:3–5

³And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying:

“Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man,

and He will dwell with them.

They will be His people,

and God Himself will be with them as their God.^b

⁴‘He will wipe away every tear from their eyes,’^c

and there will be no more death

or mourning or crying or pain,

for the former things have passed away.”

⁵And the One seated on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” Then He said, “Write this down, for these words are faithful and true.”
