Bybel in Afrikaans (1983-vertaling)

Ons het in hierdie wêreld geen vaste verblyfplek nie, ons is op soek na die toekomstige.

Hebreërs 13:14

Johannes beskryf die heilige stad:

Die nasies sal in die stad se lig lewe, en die konings van die aarde verleen luister daaraan.

Openbaring 21:24

Hebreërs 13 (Bybel in Afrikaans (1983-vertaling))

11 Die bloed van die offerdiere word deur die hoëpriester in die heiligdom ingebring vir die sonde, maar hulle liggame word buitekant die laer verbrand.
12 Daarom het Jesus ook buitekant die stadspoort gely om die volk deur sy eie bloed van hulle sonde te reinig.
13 Laat ons dan nou uitgaan na Hom toe buitekant die laer en die smaad dra wat Hy gedra het,
14 want ons het in hierdie wêreld geen vaste verblyfplek nie, ons is op soek na die toekomstige.
15 Laat ons dan onophoudelik deur Jesus aan God 'n offer van lof bring, dié lof wat aan Hom gebring word deur die lippe wat sy Naam bely.
16 Moenie nalaat om goed te doen en mededeelsaam te wees nie, want dít is die offers wat vir God aanneemlik is.
17 Julle voorgangers hou wag oor julle lewe en moet aan God rekenskap gee. Wees gehoorsaam en onderdanig aan hulle, want dan sal hulle hulle werk met vreugde kan doen en nie kla nie; anders het dit vir julle geen nut nie.

Openbaring 21 (Bybel in Afrikaans (1983-vertaling))

21 Die twaalf poorte is twaalf pêrels. Elkeen van die poorte is uit een pêrel gemaak. Die strate van die stad is van suiwer goud, blink soos 'n spieël.
22 'n Tempel het ek nie in die stad gesien nie, want sy tempel is die Here God, die Almagtige, en die Lam.
23 Die stad het nie die son en die maan nodig om hom te verlig nie, want die heerlikheid van God het hom verlig, en die Lam is sy lamp.
24 Die nasies sal in die stad se lig lewe, en die konings van die aarde verleen luister daaraan.
25 Die poorte daarvan word gedurende die hele dag nooit toegesluit nie: daar sal nie meer nag wees nie.
26 Die mense sal die luister en die rykdom van die nasies daarheen bring.
27 Niks onreins en niemand wat iets losbandigs en vals doen, sal ooit daarin kom nie, maar net dié wie se name in die boek van die lewe, die boek van die Lam geskrywe staan.

English Standard Version

Here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come.

Hebrews 13:14

John describes the heavenly city:

By its light will the nations walk, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it.

Revelation 21:24

Hebreërs 13 (English Standard Version)

11 For the bodies of those animals whose blood is brought into the holy places by the high priest as a sacrifice for sin are burned outside the camp.
12 So Jesus also suffered outside the gate in order to sanctify the people through his own blood.
13 Therefore let us go to him outside the camp and bear the reproach he endured.
14 For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come.
15 Through him then let us continually offer up a sacrifice of praise to God, that is, the fruit of lips that acknowledge his name.
16 Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are pleasing to God.
17 Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they are keeping watch over your souls, as those who will have to give an account. Let them do this with joy and not with groaning, for that would be of no advantage to you.

Openbaring 21 (English Standard Version)

21 And the twelve gates were twelve pearls, each of the gates made of a single pearl, and the street of the city was pure gold, transparent as glass.
22 And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb.
23 And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of God gives it light, and its lamp is the Lamb.
24 By its light will the nations walk, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it,
25 and its gates will never be shut by day—and there will be no night there.
26 They will bring into it the glory and the honor of the nations.
27 But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who does what is detestable or false, but only those who are written in the Lamb's book of life.
