He gripped the dragon, that old serpent, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years,
3 And he threw him into the Abyss, shut it, and sealed it over him, so that he could not deceive the nations until the thousand years were complete. After that, he must be released for a brief period of time. (Abyssos )

4 Then I saw the thrones, and those seated on them had been given authority to judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those who had not worshiped the beast or its image, and had not received its mark on their foreheads or hands. And they came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.

And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
5 The rest of the dead did not come back to life until the thousand years were complete. This is the first resurrection.

Blessed and holy is he who has a part in the first resurrection; on such the second death has no power, but they will be God’s priests, and Christ’s; and will reign with him for a thousand years.
7 When the thousand years are complete, Satan will be released from his prison,
And when the thousand years have been completed, Satan will be loosed out of his prison,
8 and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth—Gog and Magog—to assemble them for battle. Their number is like the sand of the seashore.
and will go forth to seduce the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to marshal them for war - their number is like the sands of the sea.
9 And they marched across the broad expanse of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. But fire came down from heaven and consumed them.

10 And the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, into which the beast and the false prophet had already been thrown. There they will be tormented day and night forever and ever. (aiōn , Limnē Pyr )
and the devil who had been deceiving them was hurled into the lake of fire and brimstone, where lie also the beast and the false prophet. And they will be tortured day and night, forever and ever. (aiōn , Limnē Pyr )
11 Then I saw a great white throne and the One seated on it. Earth and heaven fled from His presence, and no place was found for them.
And I saw a great white throne, and One who sat thereon; from his presence fled earth and sky, and no place was found for them.

15 And if anyone was found whose name was not written in the Book of Life, he was thrown into the lake of fire. (Limnē Pyr )
