< 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 )

2 He seized the serpent, the ancient snake, which is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years,
He gripped the dragon, that old serpent, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years,
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 flung him into the bottomless pit, and shut and sealed it over him, so that he should seduce the nations no more, until the thousand years were completed. After that it is necessary to loose him for a little while. (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 Jesus, 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 Christ for a thousand years.
And I saw thrones, and those who sat on them, and they were permitted to judge; and I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the Word of God, those who did not worship the beast nor his image, and who did not receive his brand upon their brow, or hands. And they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
5 The rest of the dead did not live until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
The rest of the dead did not live until the thousand years were completed. 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 And after the thousand years, 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 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 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 They went up over the breadth of the earth, and surrounded the camp of the saints, and the beloved city, and fire came down out of heaven and devoured them.
And they went up over the broad earth, and surrounded the encampment of the saints, and the beloved city. Then fire fell from the sky and consumed them;

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 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 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 If anyone was not found written in the Book of Life, he was cast into the lake of fire. (Limnē Pyr )
And if any one was found who was not written in the Book of Life, he was hurled into the lake of fire. (Limnē Pyr )
