Revelation Chapter 20
20:1 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless
pit and a great chain in his hand.
20:2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and
Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
20:3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon
him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should
be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.
20:4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto
them: and
I saw
the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the
word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither
had received
his
mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with
Christ a thousand years.
20:5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were
finished. This
is
the first resurrection.
20:6 Blessed and holy
is
he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no
power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him
a thousand years.
20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his
prison,
20:8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of
the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle: the number of whom
is
as the sand of the sea.
20:9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of
the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of
heaven, and devoured them.
20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and
brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet
are
, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
20:11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face
the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
20:12 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 out of those things which were written in
the books, according to their works.
20:13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell
delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man
according to their works.
20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second
death.
20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the
lake of fire.
