Wahyu 21:5-6

21:5 And the one seated on the throne said: “Look! I am making all things new!” Then ¹  he said to me, “Write it down, ²  because these words are reliable ³  and true.” 21:6 He also said to me, “It is done! ⁴  I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the one who is thirsty I will give water ⁵  free of charge ⁶  from the spring of the water of life.

[21:5]  ³ tn Grk “faithful.”

[21:6]  ⁴ tn Or “It has happened.”

[21:6]  ⁵ tn The word “water” is not in the Greek text, but is implied. Direct objects were frequently omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

[21:6]  ⁶ tn Or “as a free gift” (see L&N 57.85).
