1 And I saw an angel descending from the heaven, having the key of the abyss, and a great chain in his hand. 2 And he laid hold of the dragon, the ancient serpent who is the devil and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, 3 and cast him into the abyss, and shut it and sealed it over him, that he should not any more deceive the nations until the thousand years were completed; after these things he must be loosed for a little time. 4 And I saw thrones; and they sat upon them, and judgment was given to them; and the souls of those beheaded on account of the testimony of Jesus, and on account of the word of God; and those who had not done homage to the beast nor to his image, and had not received the mark on their forehead and hand; and they lived and reigned with the Christ a thousand years: 5 the rest of the dead did not live till the thousand years had been completed. This is the first resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy he who has part in the first resurrection: over these the second death has no power; but they shall be priests of God and of the Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years. 7 And when the thousand years have been completed, Satan shall be loosed from his prison, 8 and shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war, whose number is as the sand of the sea. 9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city: and fire came down from God out of the heaven and devoured them. 10 And the devil who deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where are both the beast and the false prophet; and they shall be tormented day and night for the ages of ages.

11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled, and place was not found for them. 12 And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened; and another book was opened, which is that of life. And the dead were judged out of the things written in the books according to their works. 13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death and hades gave up the dead which were in them; and they were judged each 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 one was not found written in the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire.

1 Ja ma nägin, et taevast tuli alla ingel, kellel oli sügaviku võti ja käes suured ahelad. 2 Ta võttis kinni lohe, selle ürgse mao, kes on kurat ja saatan, ning aheldas ta tuhandeks aastaks. 3 Ingel viskas ta sügavikku ja sulges luku taha ning pani pealt pitseriga kinni, et ta enam ei eksitaks rahvaid, enne kui tuhat aastat saavad täis. Pärast seda peab ta lühikeseks ajaks vabaks lastama.

4 Siis ma nägin troone ja troonidel istumas neid, kelle kätte oli antud kohtumõistmine. Ning ma nägin nende hingi, kelle pead olid maha raiutud Jeesuse tunnistamise ja Jumala sõna pärast, nende hingi, kes ei olnud kummardanud metsalist ega tema kuju ega olnud võtnud tema märki oma otsaette ega käe peale. Nad ärkasid ellu ja valitsesid koos Kristusega tuhat aastat. 5 Aga muud surnud ei ärganud ellu enne, kui tuhat aastat said täis. See on esimene ülestõusmine. 6 Õnnistatud ja pühad on need, kes saavad osa esimesest ülestõusmisest. Nende üle ei ole teisel surmal meelevalda; nad on Jumala ja Kristuse preestrid ning valitsevad koos temaga tuhat aastat.

7 Kui need tuhat aastat täis saavad, lastakse saatan ta vangistusest välja 8 ning ta läheb eksitama rahvaid maailma neljas nurgas, Googi ja Maagoogi, et koguda sõtta neid, kelle arv on nagu mereliiv. 9 Nad tulid kokku üle laia ilma ja piirasid ümber Jumala rahva leeri ja armastatud linna. Aga taevast langes tuli ja neelas neid. 10 Ja kurat, kes neid eksitas, heideti tule- ja väävlijärve, kus olid ka metsaline ja valeprohvet. Ja neid vaevatakse seal ööd ja päevad igavesest ajast igavesti.

11 Ma nägin suurt valget trooni ja seda, kes troonil istub, kelle palge eest põgenesid maa ja taevas, ning neile ei leitud enam kohta. 12 Ja ma nägin surnuid, suuri ja väikeseid, seismas trooni ees, ning raamatud avati. Ja veel üks raamat avati, see on eluraamat. Ja surnute üle mõisteti kohut vastavalt sellele, kuidas neisse raamatuisse oli kirjutatud, nende tegude järgi. 13 Meri andis välja temas olevad surnud ning surm ja surmavald andsid välja temas olevad surnud, ja igaühe üle mõisteti kohut tema tegude järgi. 14 Surm ja surmavald visati tulejärve. Tulejärv – see on teine surm. 15 Ja keda ei leitud olevat kirjutatud eluraamatusse, heideti tulejärve!
