‏ Revelation of John 20

CHAPTER 20 Satan Bound a Thousand Years

1 And I saw an angel coming down from out of the heaven having the key of the abyss, and [²chain ¹a great] in his hand. 2 And he seized the dragon, the [²serpent ¹ancient], who is the devil, and Satan, the one misleading the [²inhabitable world ¹entire]. And he bound him a thousand years. 3 And he cast him into the abyss, and locked, and set a seal upon him, that he should not mislead [³any more ¹the ²nations] until [⁴be fulfilled ¹the ²thousand ³years]. And after these things it is necessary to loose him a little time.

The Thousand Year Reign

4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given to them; and the souls of the ones hewn with an axe on account of the testimony of Jesus, and on account of the word of God, and whoever did not do obeisance to the beast, nor to his image, and did not take the imprint upon their forehead, and upon their hand; and they lived and reigned with the Christ a thousand years. 5 And the rest of the dead did not live until [⁴should be fulfilled ¹the ²thousand ³years]; this is the [²resurrection ¹first]. 6 Blessed and holy is the one having part in the [²resurrection ¹first]; over these the second death has no authority, but they will be priests of God and of the Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

Satan Loosed

7 And whenever [⁴should be fulfilled ¹the ²thousand ³years], [²shall be loosed ¹Satan] from out of his prison, 8 and shall come forth to mislead the nations, the ones in the four corners of the earth -- Gog and Magog, to gather them together for the war, which the number is as the sand of the sea. 9 And they ascended upon the width of the earth, and encircled the camp of the holy ones, and the city being loved. And [²came down ¹fire] from the heaven from God, and it devoured them. 10 And the devil, the one misleading them was cast into the lake of fire and sulphur, where the beast and the false prophet are. And they shall be tormented day and night into the eons of the eons.

The Great White Throne

11 And I saw [³throne ¹a great ²white], and the one sitting upon it, from whose face [⁶fled ¹the ²heaven ³and ⁴the ⁵earth], and no place was found for them. 12 And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and scrolls were opened. And another scroll was opened, which is the one of life. And [³were judged ¹the ²dead] from out of the things being written in the scrolls, according to their works. 13 And [³gave up ¹the ²sea] the ones [²in ³her ¹dead]; and death and Hades gave up the ones of their dead. And they were judged each according to their works. 14 And death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the [²death ¹second] -- the lake of fire. 15 And if any should not be found [²in ³the ⁴book ⁵of life ¹written] he was cast into the lake of fire.
