CHAPTER 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 . :2 And he laid hold on the dragon , that old serpent , which is the Devil , and Satan , and bound him a thousand years , :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 . :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 . :5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished . This [is] the first resurrection . :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 . :7 And when the thousand years are expired , Satan shall be loosed out of his prison , :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 . :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. :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 . :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. :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 . :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 . :14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire . This is the second death . :15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire . ~~~~~~
