10 The angel took me away in the Spirit to a very big hill. He showed me Jerusalem, the holy city, coming down out of heaven from God.
11 The light of God was shining from it. It was bright like a very fine stone called jasper. It was as clear as glass.
12 The city had a wall that was big and high. It had twelve doors. At the doors were twelve angels. Names were written on the doors. They are the names of the twelve tribes of the people of Israel.
13 There were three doors on the east side. There were three doors on the north side. There were three doors on the south side and three doors on the west side.
14 The wall of the city had twelve foundation stones. On them were written the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.
