21 The 12 gates were made from 12 pearls. Each gate was made out of a single pearl. The main street of the city was made out of pure gold, as clear as glass.
22 I didn't see a temple in the city. This was because the Lamb and the Lord God who rules over all are its temple.
23 The city does not need the sun or moon to shine on it. God's glory is its light, and the Lamb is its lamp.
24 The nations will walk by the light of the city. The kings of the world will bring their glory into it.
25 Its gates will never be shut, because there will be no night there.
26 The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it.
