Revelation 21:15-17
English Standard Version
15 And the one who spoke with me (A)had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city and its gates and walls. 16 The city lies foursquare, its length the same as its width. And he measured the city with his rod, 12,000 stadia.[a] Its length and width and height are equal. 17 He also measured its wall, 144 cubits[b] by (B)human measurement, which is also (C)an angel's measurement.
