Revelation:20:1-6
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And I saw an angel come down from Heaven ,
having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand .
*
And he laid hold on the dragon ,
that old serpent ,
who is the Devil and Satan ,
and bound him a thousand years .
*
And he cast him into the abyss and shut him up and set a seal on him ,
that he should deceive the nations no more until the thousand years should be fulfilled .
And after that he must be loosed a little time .
*
And I saw thrones ,
and they sat on them ,
and judgment was given to them .
And [
I saw ]
the souls of those who had been beheaded for the witness of Jesus and for the Word of God ,
and who had not worshiped the beast nor his image ,
nor had received [
his ]
mark on their foreheads ,
nor in their hands .
And they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years .
*
But the rest of the dead did not live again until the thousand years were finished .
This [
is ]
the first resurrection .
*
Blessed and holy [
is ]
he who has part in the first resurrection .
The second death has no authority over these ,
but they will be priests of God and of Christ ,
and will reign with Him a thousand years .
