< Revelation 20 >
1 Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding in his hand the key to the abyss and a great chain. (Abyssos )
And I saw an angel come down from heaven, who had the key of the bottomless pit, and a great chain in his hand. (Abyssos )
2 He seized the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world, and he bound him for a thousand years.
And he seized the dragon, that old serpent, who is the devil and satan, and bound him a thousand years,
3 He threw him into the abyss and locked and sealed it over him, so that he would no longer deceive the nations until the thousand years were completed. After that he must be released for a short time. (Abyssos )
and cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he might deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years be finished: and then he must be loosed for a little time. (Abyssos )
4 Then I saw thrones, and those who sat on them were given authority to judge. I also saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not received the mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for the thousand years.
And I saw thrones, and persons sat on them, and judgement was given to them: and I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God; and who had not worshipped the beast, nor his image, and received not his mark upon their forehead, and on their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
5 (The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were completed.) This is the first resurrection.
But the rest of the dead lived not again till the thousand years be finished.
6 Blessed and holy are those who take part in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and will reign with him for a thousand years.
This is the first resurrection. Happy and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on these the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with Him a thousand years.
7 When the thousand years are completed, Satan will be released from his prison
And when the thousand years are ended,
8 and will go out to deceive the nations that are at the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them for battle; their number is like the sand of the sea.
Satan shall be loosed from his confinement, and shall go forth to deceive the nations, that are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to war, whose number is as the sand of the sea.
9 They marched up over the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city, but fire came down out of heaven from God and devoured them.
And they overspread the surface of the earth, and encompassed the camp of the saints, and the beloved city: but fire came down from God out of heaven, and devoured them.
10 And the devil, who had deceived them, was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever. (aiōn , Limnē Pyr )
And the devil, who deceived them, was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and they shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. (aiōn , Limnē Pyr )
11 Then I saw a great white throne and one who sat upon it. The earth and the sky fled from his face, and no place was found for them.
And I saw a great white throne, and Him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled, and no place was found for them.
12 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged by what was written in the books, according to their works.
And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged by the things written in the books, according to their works.
13 Then the sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them, and each person was judged according to his works. (Hadēs )
And the sea gave up the dead that were in it; and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them: and they were judged every one according to their works. (Hadēs )
14 Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. (Hadēs , Limnē Pyr )
And death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire: this is the second death. (Hadēs , Limnē Pyr )
15 If anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire. (Limnē Pyr )
And whosoever was not found written in the book of life, was cast into the lake of fire. (Limnē Pyr )
