< Revelation 20 >
1 I saw an angel descending from heaven, holding the key of the Abyss and a large chain in his hand. (Abyssos )
And I saw a messenger coming down out of Heaven, having the key of the abyss, and a great chain over his hand, (Abyssos )
2 He seized the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him in chains for one thousand years.
and he laid hold on the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is [the] Devil and Satan, and bound him one thousand years,
3 The angel threw him into the Abyss and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he would no longer be able to deceive the nations until the thousand years were over. After that he has to be set free for a little while. (Abyssos )
and he cast him into the abyss, and shut him up, and put a seal on him, that he may no longer lead the nations astray, until the one thousand years may be completed; and after these it is necessary for him to be loosed a short time. (Abyssos )
4 I saw people sitting on thrones who had been given the responsibility to judge, and the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony about Jesus and for sharing the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or his image, nor had they received the mark on their foreheads or their hands. They lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
And I saw thrones, and they [that] sat on them, and judgment was given to them, and the souls of those who have been beheaded because of the testimony of Jesus, and because of the word of God, and who did not worship the beast, nor his image, and did not receive the mark on their forehead and on their hand, and they lived and reigned with the Christ one thousand years;
5 This is the first resurrection. (The rest of the dead did not live again until the thousand years had ended.)
and the rest of the dead did not live again until the one thousand years may be completed; this [is] the first resurrection.
6 Blessed and holy are those who take part in the first resurrection! The second death has no power over them. They will be priests of God, and of Christ, and they will reign with him for one thousand years.
Blessed and holy—he who is having part in the first resurrection; the second death has no authority over these, but they will be priests of God and of the Christ, and will reign with Him one thousand years.
7 Once the thousand years are over, Satan will be set free from his prison,
And when the one thousand years may be completed, Satan will be loosed out of his prison,
8 and will go out to deceive the nations, symbolized by Gog and Magog, to gather them together for battle from the four corners of the world. Their number is as uncountable as sand on the seashore.
and he will go forth to lead the nations astray, that are in the four corners of the earth—Gog and Magog—to gather them together to war, of whom the number—as the sand of the sea;
9 They marched over the earth on a broad front and encircled the camp of the believers, the beloved city. But fire rained down from heaven and burned them up.
and they went up over the breadth of the land, and surrounded the camp of the holy ones, and the beloved city, and there came down fire from God out of Heaven, and devoured them;
10 The devil, who had deceived them, was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur where the beast and the false prophet had also been thrown, and they will suffer in anguish day and night for ever and ever. (aiōn , Limnē Pyr )
and the Devil, who is leading them astray, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone where the beast and the false prophet [are], and they will be tormented day and night through the ages of the ages. (aiōn , Limnē Pyr )
11 Then I saw a large white throne with the one who sits on it. Heaven and earth vanished, and they were never seen again.
And I saw a great white throne, and Him who is sitting on it, from whose face the earth and the sky fled away, and no place was found for them;
12 I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and the books were opened. Another book, the Book of Life, was opened and the dead were judged based on what was written in the books about what they had done.
and I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and scrolls were opened, and another scroll was opened, which is that of the life, and the dead were judged out of the things written in the scrolls—according to their works;
13 The sea handed over the dead in it, and death and Hades handed over the dead that were in them, and everyone was judged according to what they had done. (Hadēs )
and the sea gave up those dead in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead in them, and they were judged, each one according to their works; (Hadēs )
14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. (Hadēs , Limnē Pyr )
and death and Hades were cast into the lake of the fire—this [is] the second death; (Hadēs , Limnē Pyr )
15 Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire. (Limnē Pyr )
and if anyone was not found written in the Scroll of Life, he was cast into the lake of the fire. (Limnē Pyr )
