< Revelation 20 >
1 I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand. (Abyssos )
And Y say an aungel comynge doun fro heuene, hauynge the keie of depnesse, and a greet chayne in his hoond. (Abyssos )
2 He seized the serpent, the ancient snake, which is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years,
And he cauyte the dragoun, the elde serpent, that is the deuel and Sathanas; and he boonde hym bi a thousynde yeeris.
3 and cast him into the abyss, and shut it, and sealed it over him, that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years were finished. After this, he must be freed for a short time. (Abyssos )
And he sente hym `in to depnesse, and closide on hym, that he disseyue no more the folkis, til a thousynde yeeris be fillid. Aftir these thingis it bihoueth hym to be vnboundun a litil tyme. (Abyssos )
4 I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them. I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Yeshua, and for the word of God, and such as did not worship the beast nor his image, and did not receive the mark on their forehead and on their hand. They lived, and reigned with Messiah for a thousand years.
And Y say seetis, and thei saten on hem, and doom was youun to hem. And the soulis of men biheedid for the witnessyng of Jhesu, and for the word of God, and hem that worschipiden not the beeste, nether the ymage of it, nethir token the carect of it in her forheedis, nethir in her hoondis. And thei lyueden, and regneden with Crist a thousynde yeeris.
5 The rest of the dead did not live until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
Othere of deed men lyueden not, til a thousynde yeeris ben endid. This is the first ayen risynge.
6 Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over these, the second death has no power, but they will be cohanim of God and of Messiah, and will reign with him one thousand years.
Blessid and hooli is he, that hath part in the firste ayenrysyng. In these men the secunde deth hath not power; but thei schulen be prestis of God, and of Crist, and thei schulen regne with hym a thousynde yeeris.
7 And after the thousand years, Satan will be released from his prison,
And whanne a thousynde yeeris schulen be endid, Sathanas schal be vnboundun of his prisoun;
8 and he will come out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war; the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.
and he schal go out, and schal disseyue folkis, that ben on foure corners of the erthe, Gog and Magog. And he schal gadere hem in to batel, whos noumbre is as the grauel of the see.
9 They went up over the breadth of the earth, and surrounded the camp of the kadoshim, and the beloved city, and fire came down out of heaven and devoured them.
And thei stieden vp on the broodnesse of erthe, and enuyrounede the castels of seyntis, and the louyd citee. And fier cam doun `of God fro heuene, and deuourede hem.
10 The devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet are also. They will be tormented day and night forever and ever. (aiōn , Limnē Pyr )
And the deuel, that disseyuede hem, was sent in to the pool of fier and of brymston, where bothe the beeste and fals prophetis schulen be turmentid dai and niyt, in to worldis of worldis. Amen. (aiōn , Limnē Pyr )
11 I saw a great white throne, and him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. There was found no place for them.
And Y say a greet white trone, and oon sittynge on it, fro whos siyt erthe fled and heuene; and the place is not foundun `of hem.
12 I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and they opened books. Another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. The dead were judged out of the things which were written in the books, according to their works.
And Y sai deed men, grete and smale, stondynge in the siyt of the trone; and bookis weren opened, and deed men weren demed of these thingis that weren writun in the bookis, aftir the werkis of hem.
13 The sea gave up the dead who were in it. Death and Sheol gave up the dead who were in them. They were judged, each one according to his works. (Hadēs )
And the see yaf his deed men, that weren in it; and deth and helle yauen her deed men, that weren in hem. And it was demed of ech, aftir the werkis of hem. (Hadēs )
14 Death and Sheol were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. (Hadēs , Limnē Pyr )
And helle and deth weren sent in to a poole of fier. `This is the secunde deth. (Hadēs , Limnē Pyr )
15 If anyone was not found written in the Book of Life, he was cast into the lake of fire. (Limnē Pyr )
And he that was not foundun writun in the book of lijf, was sent in to the pool of fier. (Limnē Pyr )
