Revelation 21:18-23: "18 The wall was built of jasper, while the city was pure gold, clear as glass. 19 The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with every kind of jewel. The first was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald, 20 the fifth onyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst. 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 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."
2 Corinthians 4:17-18: "17 For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, 18 as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen. For the things that are seen are transient, but the things that are unseen are eternal."
Revelation 7:9-17: "9 After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10 and crying out with a loud voice, 'Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!' 11 And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12 saying, 'Amen! Blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might be to our God forever and ever! Amen.'
"13 Then one of the elders addressed me, saying, 'Who are these, clothed in white robes, and from where have they come?' 14 I said to him, 'Sir, you know.' And he said to me, 'These are the ones coming out of the great tribulation. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb.
"15 'Therefore they are before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple; and he who sits on the throne will shelter them with his presence. 16 They shall hunger no more, neither thirst anymore; the sun shall not strike them, nor any scorching heat. 17 For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of living water, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.'"
Isaiah 60:19-20: "19 The sun shall be no more your light be day, nor for brightness shall the moon give you light; but the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory. 20 Your sun shall no more go down, nor your moon withdraw itself; for the LORD will be your everlasting light, and your days of mourning shall be ended."

The text from Revelation 21 appears in the first two verses. The first line of the hymn ("Jerusalem the golden") is derived from the description in verses 18-21, and the second half of the hymn's second verse ("The Prince is ever with them; / The daylight is serene; / The city of the blessed / Shines bright with glorious sheen") comes from verses 22-23, although there's an overlap here with Isaiah 60:19-20.
The passage from 2 Corinthians 4 seems to appear in the second half of the first verse: "We know not, oh, we know not / What joys await us there: / The radiancy of glory, / The bliss beyond compare!"
The text from Revelation 7 appears in the first half of the second verse and the entirety of the third verse.
The line "With milk and honey blest" in the first verse comes from the description of the promised land in Exodus. I think the first occurrence is in Exodus 3:8.
The "eternal rest" mentioned in the fourth verse may refer to Matthew 11:28-29: "28 'Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.'"
