< Revelation 20 >

1 I saw an angel coming down from heaven. He had the key to the deep dark pit, and he was carrying a large chain in his hand. (Abyssos g12)
سپس، فرشته‌ای را دیدم که از آسمان پایین آمد. او کلید چاه بی‌انتها را همراه می‌آورد و زنجیری محکم نیز در دست داشت. (Abyssos g12)
2 He seized the dragon. That dragon is the ancient serpent, the devil, that is, Satan. The angel bound him with the chain. That chain could not be loosed {[No one could loose] that chain} for 1,000 years.
او اژدها را گرفت و به زنجیر کشید و برای مدت هزار سال به چاه بی‌انتها افکند. سپس درِ چاه را بست و قفل کرد، تا در آن هزار سال نتواند هیچ قومی را فریب دهد. پس از گذشت این مدت، اژدها برای مدت کوتاهی باید آزاد گذاشته شود. اژدها، همان مار قدیم است که ابلیس و شیطان نیز نامیده می‌شود. (Abyssos g12)
3 The angel threw him into the deep dark pit. He shut [the door of the pit], locked it, and sealed it [to prevent anyone from opening it]. He did that in order that Satan might no longer deceive [the people of the] nations [MTY], until those 1,000 years are ended. After that [time], Satan must be released {[God/God’s angel] must release Satan} for a short time [in order that he can do what God has planned]. (Abyssos g12)
4 I saw thrones on which people were sitting. [They were given] {[God] gave those people} [authority] to judge [other people]. I also saw the souls [of people] whose heads had been {whose heads [others] had} cut off because of [their telling people about] Jesus and declaring God’s message. They were people who refused to worship the beast or its image, and who did not allow [the beast’s agents] to put the beast’s mark on them, either on their foreheads or on their hands. They became alive again, and they ruled with Christ [during those] 1,000 years.
آنگاه تختهایی دیدم که بر آنها کسانی نشسته بودند که اختیار و قدرت دادرسی به آنها داده شده بود. سپس جانهای کسانی را دیدم که به سبب اعلام پیام عیسی و کلام خدا سرهایشان از تن جدا شده بود. همچنین جانهای آنانی را دیدم که وحش و مجسمه‌اش را نپرستیده بودند و علامتش را بر پیشانی و دست خود نداشتند. اینان همگی، زندگی را از سر نو آغاز کردند و با مسیح هزار سال سلطنت نمودند.
5 They were the ones who lived again the first time [that God caused dead people] to live again. The rest of [the believers who] had died did not live again until after those 1,000 years.
این قیامت اول است. قیامت بعدی در پایان آن هزار سال رخ خواهد داد؛ در آن زمان، بقیهٔ مردگان زنده خواهند شد.
6 ([God] will be pleased with/[How] happy will be) those who live again that first time. God will [consider] them holy. They will not die [PRS] a second time. Instead, they will be priests [who serve] God and Christ, and they will rule with [Christ] during those 1,000 years.
خوشبخت و مقدّسند آنانی که در این قیامت اول سهمی دارند. اینان از مرگ دوم هیچ هراسی ندارند، بلکه کاهنان خدا و مسیح بوده، با او هزار سال سلطنت خواهند کرد.
7 When the 1,000 years are ended, Satan will be released {[God’s angel] will release Satan} from [the deep pit] in which he was imprisoned.
پس از پایان آن هزار سال، شیطان از زندان آزاد خواهد شد.
8 He will go out to deceive [rebellious] people in nations [IDM] all over the earth. [These are the nations that the prophet Ezekiel called] Gog and Magog. Satan will gather them to fight against [God’s people]. There will be [so many of them fighting against God’s people that no one will be able to count them] [SIM], just like [no one can count the grains of] sand on the ocean shore.
او بیرون خواهد رفت تا قومهای جهان یعنی جوج و ماجوج را فریب داده، برای جنگ متحد سازد. آنان سپاه عظیمی را تشکیل خواهند داد که تعدادشان همچون ماسه‌های ساحل دریا بی‌شمار خواهد بود.
9 They will march over the whole earth and surround the camp of God’s people [in Jerusalem], the city that [God] loves. Then [God will send] fire down from heaven, and it will burn them up.
ایشان در دشت وسیعی، خلق خدا و شهر محبوب اورشلیم را از هر سو محاصره خواهند کرد. اما آتش از آسمان، از سوی خدا خواهد بارید و همه را خواهد سوزاند.
10 The devil, who had deceived those people, will be thrown {[God’s angel] will throw the devil, who had deceived those people} into the lake of burning sulfur. [This is the same lake] into which both the beast and the false prophet had been [thrown] {[he] had [thrown] both the beast and the false prophet}. [As a result], they will continually suffer severely forever. (aiōn g165, Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
سپس ابلیس که ایشان را فریب داده بود، به دریاچهٔ آتش افکنده خواهد شد. دریاچهٔ آتش همان جایی است که با گوگرد می‌سوزد و آن وحش و پیامبر دروغین او شبانه روز، تا به ابد، در آنجا عذاب خواهند کشید. (aiōn g165, Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
11 Then I saw a huge white throne on which [God] was sitting. He [was so awesome that] the earth and the sky disappeared from his presence completely; they were completely destroyed {[God] completely destroyed them}.
آنگاه تخت بزرگ سفیدی را دیدم. بر آن تخت کسی نشسته بود که زمین و آسمان از روی او گریختند و ناپدید شدند.
12 I saw that the people who had died [but now lived again] were standing in front of the throne. [They included people of] every social status! The books [in which God records what people do] were opened {[God/God’s angel] opened the books [in which God records what people do]}. Another book was opened {[He] opened another book}, which is [called the Book] of Life, [in which God has written the names of people who have eternal life]. [God] judged the people who had died [and now lived again] according to what they had done, just like [he] had recorded it in the books.
سپس مرده‌ها را دیدم که از بزرگ و کوچک در برابر خدا ایستاده‌اند. دفترها یکی پس از دیگری گشوده شد تا به دفتر حیات رسید. مردگان همگی بر طبق نوشته‌های این دفترها محاکمه شدند.
13 [The people whose bodies were buried in the] sea [became alive again in order to stand before God’s throne]. Everyone who had been buried on the land (OR, Every person who was waiting in the place where dead people stay) [became alive again, in order to stand before the throne]. [God] judged each one of them according to what each one had done. (Hadēs g86)
بنابراین، دریا و زمین و قبرها، مرده‌هایی را که در خود داشتند، تحویل دادند تا مطابق اعمالشان محاکمه شوند. (Hadēs g86)
14 All the unbelievers [PRS, MTY] —those who had been in the place where they waited after they died— [were thrown into the burning lake]. The burning lake is [the place in which people] die the second time. (Hadēs g86, Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
آنگاه مرگ و دنیای مردگان به دریاچهٔ آتش افکنده شد. این است مرگ دوم، یعنی همان دریاچهٔ آتش. (Hadēs g86, Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
15 The people whose [names] [MTY] are not in the book, the one [where God] has written [the names of people who] have [eternal] life, [were also thrown] {([God/God’s angel]) threw them also} [into the lake] of fire. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
هر که نامش در دفتر حیات نبود، به دریاچهٔ آتش افکنده شد. (Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
