Revelation 21:2 in Context — Revelation 21

1 Puis je vis un nouveau ciel et une nouvelle terre; car le premier ciel et la première terre avaient disparu, et la mer n’était plus.

2 Et je vis descendre du ciel, d’auprès de Dieu, la ville sainte, la nouvelle Jérusalem, préparée comme une épouse qui s’est parée pour son époux.

3 Et j’entendis du trône une forte voix qui disait: Voici le tabernacle de Dieu avec les hommes! Il habitera avec eux, et ils seront son peuple, et Dieu lui-même sera avec eux.

4 Il essuiera toute larme de leurs yeux, et la mort ne sera plus, et il n’y aura plus ni deuil, ni cri, ni douleur, car les premières choses ont disparu.
