Revelation 21:16 in Context — Revelation 21
14 La muraille de la ville avait douze fondements, et sur eux les douze noms des douze apôtres de l’agneau.
15 Celui qui me parlait avait pour mesure un roseau d’or, afin de mesurer la ville, ses portes et sa muraille.
16 La ville avait la forme d’un carré, et sa longueur était égale à sa largeur. Il mesura la ville avec le roseau, et trouva douze mille stades; la longueur, la largeur et la hauteur en étaient égales.
17 Il mesura la muraille, et trouva cent quarante-quatre coudées, mesure d’homme, qui était celle de l’ange.
18 La muraille était construite en jaspe, et la ville était d’or pur, semblable à du verre pur.
