   The Thousand Years   
   20 And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the Abyss   
   and holding in his hand a great chain. 2 He seized the dragon, that ancient   
   serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. 3 He   
   threw him into the    
   Abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the   
   nations anymore until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be   
   set free for a short time.   
      
   4 I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to   
   judge. And I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of their   
   testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God. They had not worshiped   
   the beast or its image and    
   had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life   
   and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 5 (The rest of the dead did not come   
   to life until the thousand years were ended.) This is the first resurrection.   
   6 Blessed and holy    
   are those who share in the first resurrection. The second death has no power   
   over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with   
   him for a thousand years.   
      
   The Judgment of Satan   
   7 When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison 8   
   and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corners of the earth—Gog   
   and Magog—and to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand on   
   the seashore. 9 They    
   marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God’s   
   people, the city he loves. But fire came down from heaven and devoured them.   
   10 And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning   
   sulfur, where the beast and    
   the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for   
   ever and ever.   
      
   The Judgment of the Dead   
   11 Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. The earth and   
   the heavens fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. 12 And I   
   saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were   
   opened. Another book    
   was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged according to what   
   they had done as recorded in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead that were   
   in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person   
   was judged    
   according to what they had done. 14 Then death and Hades were thrown into the   
   lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. 15 Anyone whose name was   
   not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire
