1
And I saw a messenger descending from the heavens, having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand.
2
And he seized the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is the adversary and Satan, and bound him for one thousand years.
3
And he cast him into the abyss, shut it, and sealed it over him so that he would not deceive the nations any longer until the thousand years were completed. After these things he must be released for a little time.
4
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and Judgment was given to them. And I saw the beings of those beheaded because of the testimony of Yahushua and because of the Word of Elohim, and those who did not bow before the beast or its image and did not receive the mark upon their forehead and hand; and they lived and reigned with the Anointed one thousand years.
5
The rest of the dead did not live until the thousand years were completed. This is the first resurrection.
6
Blessed and set apart is the one having a portion in the first resurrection. Over these the second death has no authority, but they shall be kohenim of Elohim and of the Anointed, and shall reign with him one thousand years.
7
And whenever the thousand years are completed, the adversary shall be released from his prison
8
and shall go out to deceive the nations at the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them for war, whose number is like the sand of the sea.
9
And they went up over the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of the set-apart ones and the beloved city; and fire came down from the heavens and devoured them.
10
And the adversary who deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and sulfur, where the beast and false prophet are, and they shall be tormented day and night to the ages of the ages.
11
And I saw a great white throne and the One sitting upon it, from whose face the earth and the heavens fled, and no place was found for them.
12
And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and sefarim were opened. And another sefer was opened, which is the sefer of life. And the dead were judged from the things written in the sefarim according to their works.
13
And the sea gave up the dead in it, and Death and Sheol gave up the dead in them, and each was judged according to their works.
14
And Death and Sheol were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death - the lake of fire.
15
And if anyone was not found written in the sefer of life, he was cast into the lake of fire.
