1 Então, vi descer do céu um anjo; tinha na mão a chave do abismo e uma grande corrente. 2 Ele segurou o dragão, a antiga serpente, que é o diabo, Satanás, e o prendeu por mil anos; 3 lançou-o no abismo, fechou-o e pôs selo sobre ele, para que não mais enganasse as nações até se completarem os mil anos. Depois disto, é necessário que ele seja solto pouco tempo.

4 Vi também tronos, e nestes sentaram-se aqueles aos quais foi dada autoridade de julgar. Vi ainda as almas dos decapitados por causa do testemunho de Jesus, bem como por causa da palavra de Deus, tantos quantos não adoraram a besta, nem tampouco a sua imagem, e não receberam a marca na fronte e na mão; e viveram e reinaram com Cristo durante mil anos. 5 Os restantes dos mortos não reviveram até que se completassem os mil anos. Esta é a primeira ressurreição. 6 Bem-aventurado e santo é aquele que tem parte na primeira ressurreição; sobre esses a segunda morte não tem autoridade; pelo contrário, serão sacerdotes de Deus e de Cristo e reinarão com ele os mil anos.

7 Quando, porém, se completarem os mil anos, Satanás será solto da sua prisão 8 e sairá a seduzir as nações que há nos quatro cantos da terra, Gogue e Magogue, a fim de reuni-las para a peleja. O número dessas é como a areia do mar. 9 Marcharam, então, pela superfície da terra e sitiaram o acampamento dos santos e a cidade querida; desceu, porém, fogo do céu e os consumiu. 10 O diabo, o sedutor deles, foi lançado para dentro do lago de fogo e enxofre, onde já se encontram não só a besta como também o falso profeta; e serão atormentados de dia e de noite, pelos séculos dos séculos.

11 Vi um grande trono branco e aquele que nele se assenta, de cuja presença fugiram a terra e o céu, e não se achou lugar para eles. 12 Vi também os mortos, os grandes e os pequenos, postos em pé diante do trono. Então, se abriram livros. Ainda outro livro, o Livro da Vida, foi aberto. E os mortos foram julgados, segundo as suas obras, conforme o que se achava escrito nos livros. 13 Deu o mar os mortos que nele estavam. A morte e o além entregaram os mortos que neles havia. E foram julgados, um por um, segundo as suas obras. 14 Então, a morte e o inferno foram lançados para dentro do lago de fogo. Esta é a segunda morte, o lago de fogo. 15 E, se alguém não foi achado inscrito no Livro da Vida, esse foi lançado para dentro do lago de fogo.

1 And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand. 2 And he laid hold on the dragon, the old serpent, which is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years, 3 and cast him into the abyss, and shut it, and sealed it over him, that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years should be finished: after this he must be loosed for a little time.

4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God, and such as worshipped not the beast, neither his image, and received not the mark upon their forehead and upon their hand; and they lived, and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 5 The rest of the dead lived not until the thousand years should be finished. This is the first resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: over these 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 finished, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison, 8 and shall come forth to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. 9 And they went up over the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down out of heaven, and devoured them. 10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where are also the beast and the false prophet; and they shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.

11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat upon 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, the great and the small, standing before the throne; and books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of the things which were written in the books, according to their works. 13 And the sea gave up the dead that were in it; and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. 14 And death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death, even the lake of fire. 15 And if any was not found written in the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire.

1 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.

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.

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.
