"And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him: And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
"And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever."
"Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity."
Revelation, Chapter 22
1 And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.
2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.
3 And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:
4 And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.
5 And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever.
6 And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done.
7 Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.
8 And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.
9 Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.
10 And he saith unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: for the time is at hand.
11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.
15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.
16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.
17 And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.
18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.
20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
2 Timothy, Chapter 2
1 Thou therefore, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.
2 And the things that thou hast heard of me among many witnesses, the same commit thou to faithful men, who shall be able to teach others also.
3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
4 No man that warreth entangleth himself with the affairs of this life; that he may please him who hath chosen him to be a soldier.
5 And if a man also strive for masteries, yet is he not crowned, except he strive lawfully.
6 The husbandman that laboureth must be first partaker of the fruits.
7 Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things.
8 Remember that Jesus Christ of the seed of David was raised from the dead according to my gospel:
9 Wherein I suffer trouble, as an evil doer, even unto bonds; but the word of God is not bound.
10 Therefore I endure all things for the elect's sakes, that they may also obtain the salvation which is in Christ Jesus with eternal glory.
11 It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him:
12 If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:
13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
14 Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers.
15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.
16 But shun profane and vain babblings: for they will increase unto more ungodliness.
17 And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus;
18 Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some.
19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
20 But in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some to honour, and some to dishonour.
21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master's use, and prepared unto every good work.
22 Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
23 But foolish and unlearned questions avoid, knowing that they do gender strifes.
24 And the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient,
25 In meekness instructing those that oppose themselves; if God peradventure will give them repentance to the acknowledging of the truth;
26 And that they may recover themselves out of the snare of the devil, who are taken captive by him at his will.
◄ Apocalipsis 22 ►
Nueva Biblia Latinoamericana (Spanish)
1 Después el ángel me mostró un río de agua de vida, resplandeciente como cristal, que salía del trono de Dios y del Cordero, 2 en medio de la calle de la ciudad. Y a cada lado del río estaba el árbol de la vida, que produce doce clases de fruto, dando su fruto cada mes; y las hojas del árbol eran para sanidad de las naciones. 3 Ya no habrá más maldición. El trono de Dios y del Cordero estará allí, y Sus siervos Le servirán. 4 Ellos verán Su rostro y Su nombre estará en sus frentes. 5 Y ya no habrá más noche, y no tendrán necesidad de luz de lámpara ni de luz del sol, porque el Señor Dios los iluminará, y reinarán por los siglos de los siglos.
6 Y me dijo: “Estas palabras son fieles y verdaderas.” El Señor, el Dios de los espíritus de los profetas, envió a Su ángel para mostrar a Sus siervos las cosas que han de suceder enseguida.
7 “Por tanto, Yo vengo pronto. Bienaventurado el que guarda las palabras de la profecía de este libro.”
8 Yo, Juan, soy el que oyó y vio estas cosas. Y cuando oí y vi, me postré para adorar a los pies del ángel que me mostró estas cosas. 9 Y me dijo: “No hagas eso. Yo soy consiervo tuyo y de tus hermanos los profetas y de los que guardan las palabras de este libro. Adora a Dios.”
10 También me dijo: “No selles las palabras de la profecía de este libro, porque el tiempo está cerca. 11 “Que el injusto siga haciendo injusticias, que el impuro siga siendo impuro, que el justo siga practicando la justicia, y que el que es santo siga guardándose santo.”
12 “Por tanto, Yo vengo pronto, y Mi recompensa está conmigo para recompensar a cada uno según sea su obra. 13 “Yo soy el Alfa y la Omega, el Primero y el Ultimo, el Principio y el Fin.”
14 Bienaventurados los que lavan sus vestiduras para tener derecho al árbol de la vida y para entrar por las puertas a la ciudad. 15 Afuera están los perros, los hechiceros, los inmorales, los asesinos, los idólatras, y todo el que ama y practica la mentira.
16 “Yo, Jesús, he enviado a Mi ángel a fin de darles a ustedes testimonio de estas cosas para las iglesias. Yo soy la raíz y la descendencia de David, el lucero resplandeciente de la mañana.”
17 El Espíritu y la esposa dicen: “Ven.” Y el que oye, diga: “Ven.” Y el que tiene sed, venga; y el que desee, que tome gratuitamente del agua de la vida.
18 Yo testifico a todos los que oyen las palabras de la profecía de este libro: si alguien añade a ellas, Dios traerá sobre él las plagas que están escritas en este libro. 19 Y si alguien quita de las palabras del libro de esta profecía, Dios quitará su parte del árbol de la vida y de la ciudad santa descritos en este libro.
20 El que testifica de estas cosas dice: “Sí, vengo pronto.” Amén. Ven, Señor Jesús.
21 La gracia del Señor Jesús sea con todos. Amén.
Amen.
