With that I heard a loud voice from heaven saying: "Look! the tabernacle ofGod is with mankind, and he be with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. And he will wipe all tears from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning, nor sorrow, nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.
Revelation 21:3,4
