CHAPTER 20
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.
CHAPTER 21
And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away;
and there was no more sea.
2
And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God
out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3
And I heard a great voice out of
heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God
is
with men, and he will dwell with them, and they
shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them,
and be
their God.
4
And God shall wipe
away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither
shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5
And he that sat upon the
