Pahayag 20
1 Pagkatapos nakita ko ang isang anghel na bumababa mula sa langit, mayroong susi sa kailaliman ng hukay at mayroong malaking tanikala sa kaniyang kamay. (Abyssos g12)
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)
2 Sinukal niya ang dragon, ang dating ahas, na siyang demonyo, o Satanas, at ginapos siya nang isang libong taon.
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.
3 Tinapon siya sa kailaliman ng hukay, ikinulong siya rito at sinelyuhan ang ibabaw nito. Para hindi na ito makapanglinlang kailanman ng mga bansa hanggang sa ang isang libong taon ang lumipas. Pagkatapos niyon, dapat siyang maging malaya ng maikling panahon. (Abyssos g12)
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 Pagkatapos nakita ko ang mga trono. Ang mga binigyan ng kapangyarihang humatol ang nakaupo sa mga ito. Nakita ko rin ang mga kaluluwa ng mga pinugutan ng ulo dahil sa patotoo tungkol kay Cristo at sa salita ng Diyos. Hindi sila sumamba sa halimaw o sa kaniyang imahe, at tumanggi silang tanggapin ang tatak sa kanilang mga noo at kamay. Nabuhay silang muli, at naghari kasama ni Cristo ng isang libong taon.
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.
5 Ang ibang mga namatay ay hindi na nabuhay muli hanggang sa matapos ang isang libong taon. Ito ang unang pagkabuhay.
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.
6 Pinagpala at banal ang sinuman na makibahagi sa unang muling pagkabuhay! Ang pangalawang kamatayan ay walang kapangyarihan na tulad ng mga ito. Sila ay magiging mga pari ng Diyos at sila ay maghahari kasama niya sa loob ng isang libong taon.
([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.
7 Kapag natapos na ang libong mga taon, palalayain si Satanas mula sa kaniyang bilangguan.
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.
8 Siya ay lalabas para manlinlang ng mga bansa sa apat na sulok ng mundo — Gog at Magog — para tipunin sila para sa digmaan. Sila ay magiging kasing dami ng buhangin sa dagat.
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.
9 Umakyat sila pataas sa malawak na patag ng lupa at pinalibutan ang kampo ng mga mananampalataya, ang minamahal na lungsod. Pero bumaba ang apoy mula sa langit at nilamon sila.
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.
10 Ang demonyo, na siyang nanlinlang sa kanila, ay itinapon sa lawa ng nasusunog na asupre, kung saan ang halimaw at ang mga bulaang propeta ay itinapon. Sila ay pahihirapan umaga at gabi magpakailan pa man. (aiōn g165, Limnē Pyr g3041 g4442)
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)
11 Pagkatapos nakita ko ang dakilang puting trono at ang siyang nakaupo roon. Ang lupa at ang langit ay lumayo mula sa kaniyang presensya, pero wala na silang lugar na mapupuntahan.
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}.
12 Nakita ang mga patay — ang magigiting at ang hindi mahahalaga — nakatayo sa harap ng trono, at binuksan ang mga aklat. Pagkatapos isa pang aklat ang binuksan — Ang aklat ng Buhay. Ang patay ay hinatulan sa pamamagitan ng itinala sa mga aklat, ang kinalabasan ng kanilang ginawa.
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.
13 Ibinigay ng dagat ang mga patay na naroroon. Ibinigay ng kamatayan at ng hades ang mga patay na nasa kanila, at hinatulan ang mga patay ayon sa kanilang ginawa. (Hadēs g86)
[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)
