¹I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand.

KJVAnd^G2532 I saw^G1492^(G5627) an angel^G32 come down^G2597^(G5723) from^G1537 heaven^G3772, having^G2192^(G5723) the key^G2807 of the bottomless pit^G12 and^G2532 a great^G3173 chain^G254 in^G1909 his^G846 hand^G5495.

² He seized the dragon, the old serpent, who is the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole inhabited earth, and bound him for a thousand years,

KJVAnd^G2532 he laid hold on^G2902^(G5656) the dragon^G1404, that old^G744 serpent^G3789, which^G3739 is^G2076^(G5748) the Devil^G1228, and^G2532 Satan^G4567, and^G2532 bound^G1210^(G5656) him^G846 a thousand^G5507 years^G2094,

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 were finished. After this, he must be freed for a short time.

KJVAnd^G2532 cast^G906^(G5627) him^G846 into^G1519 the bottomless pit^G12, and^G2532 shut^G2808 him^G846 up^G2808^(G5656), and^G2532 set a seal^G4972^(G5656) upon^G1883 him^G846, that^G3363 he should deceive^G4105^(G5661) the nations^G1484 no^G3363 more^G2089, till^G891 the thousand^G5507 years^G2094 should be fulfilled^G5055^(G5686): and^G2532 after^G3326 that^G5023 he^G846 must^G1163^(G5748) be loosed^G3089^(G5683) a little^G3398 season^G5550.

⁴ I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them. I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and such as didn’t worship the beast nor his image, and didn’t receive the mark on their forehead and on their hand. They lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.

KJVAnd^G2532 I saw^G1492^(G5627) thrones^G2362, and^G2532 they sat^G2523^(G5656) upon^G1909 them^G846, and^G2532 judgment^G2917 was given^G1325^(G5681) unto them^G846: and^G2532 I saw the souls^G5590 of them that were beheaded^G3990^(G5772) for^G1223 the witness^G3141 of Jesus^G2424, and^G2532 for^G1223 the word^G3056 of God^G2316, and^G2532 which^G3748 had^G4352 not^G3756 worshipped^G4352^(G5656) the beast^G2342, neither^G3777 his^G846 image^G1504,^G2532 neither^G3756 had received^G2983^(G5627) his mark^G5480 upon^G1909 their^G846 foreheads^G3359, or^G2532 in^G1909 their^G846 hands^G5495; and^G2532 they lived^G2198^(G5656) and^G2532 reigned^G936^(G5656) with^G3326 Christ^G5547 a thousand^G5507 years^G2094.

⁵ The rest of the dead didn’t live until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.

KJVBut^G1161 the rest^G3062 of the dead^G3498 lived^G326 not^G3756 again^G326^(G5656) until^G2193 the thousand^G5507 years^G2094 were finished^G5055^(G5686). This^G3778 is the first^G4413 resurrection^G386.

⁶ Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over these, the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and will reign with him one thousand years.

KJVBlessed^G3107 and^G2532 holy^G40 is he that hath^G2192^(G5723) part^G3313 in^G1722 the first^G4413 resurrection^G386: on^G1909 such^G5130 the second^G1208 death^G2288 hath^G2192^(G5719) no^G3756 power^G1849, but^G235 they shall be^G2071^(G5704) priests^G2409 of God^G2316 and^G2532 of Christ^G5547, and^G2532 shall reign^G936^(G5692) with^G3326 him^G846 a thousand^G5507 years^G2094.

⁷ And after the thousand years, Satan will be released from his prison

KJVAnd^G2532 when^G3752 the thousand^G5507 years^G2094 are expired^G5055^(G5686), Satan^G4567 shall be loosed^G3089^(G5701) out of^G1537 his^G846 prison^G5438,

⁸ and he will come 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.

KJVAnd^G2532 shall go out^G1831^(G5695) to deceive^G4105^(G5658) the nations^G1484 which^G3588 are in^G1722 the four^G5064 quarters^G1137 of the earth^G1093, Gog^G1136 and^G2532 Magog^G3098, to gather^G4863 them^G846 together^G4863^(G5629) to^G1519 battle^G4171: the number^G706 of whom^G3739 is as^G5613 the sand^G285 of the sea^G2281.

⁹ They went up over the width of the earth and surrounded the camp of the saints and the beloved city. Fire came down out of heaven from God and devoured them.

KJVAnd^G2532 they went up^G305^(G5627) on^G1909 the breadth^G4114 of the earth^G1093, and^G2532 compassed^G2944 the camp^G3925 of the saints^G40 about^G2944^(G5656), and^G2532 the beloved^G25^(G5772) city^G4172: and^G2532 fire^G4442 came down^G2597^(G5627) from^G575 God^G2316 out of^G1537 heaven^G3772, and^G2532 devoured^G2719^(G5627) them^G846.

¹⁰ The devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet are also. They will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

KJVAnd^G2532 the devil^G1228 that deceived^G4105^(G5723) them^G846 was cast^G906^(G5681) into^G1519 the lake^G3041 of fire^G4442 and^G2532 brimstone^G2303, where^G3699 the beast^G2342 and^G2532 the false prophet^G5578 are, and^G2532 shall be tormented^G928^(G5701) day^G2250 and^G2532 night^G3571 for^G1519 ever^G165 and ever^G165.

¹¹ I saw a great white throne and him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the sky fled away. There was found no place for them.

KJVAnd^G2532 I saw^G1492^(G5627) a great^G3173 white^G3022 throne^G2362, and^G2532 him that sat^G2521^(G5740) on^G1909 it^G846, from^G575 whose^G3739 face^G4383 the earth^G1093 and^G2532 the heaven^G3772 fled away^G5343^(G5627); and^G2532 there was found^G2147^(G5681) no^G3756 place^G5117 for them^G846.

¹² I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and they opened books. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged out of the things which were written in the books, according to their works.

KJVAnd^G2532 I saw^G1492^(G5627) the dead^G3498, small^G3398 and^G2532 great^G3173, stand^G2476^(G5761) before^G1799 God^G2316; and^G2532 the books^G975 were opened^G455^(G5681): and^G2532 another^G243 book^G975 was opened^G455^(G5681), which^G3739 is^G2076^(G5748) the book of life^G2222: and^G2532 the dead^G3498 were judged^G2919^(G5681) out of^G1537 those things which were written^G1125^(G5772) in^G1722 the books^G975, according to^G2596 their^G846 works^G2041.

¹³ The sea gave up the dead who were in it. Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them. They were judged, each one according to his works.

KJVAnd^G2532 the sea^G2281 gave up^G1325^(G5656) the dead^G3498 which^G3588 were in^G1722 it^G846; and^G2532 death^G2288 and^G2532 hell^G86 delivered up^G1325^(G5656) the dead^G3498 which^G3588 were in^G1722 them^G846: and^G2532 they were judged^G2919^(G5681) every man^G1538 according to^G2596 their^G846 works^G2041.

¹⁴ Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire.

KJVAnd^G2532 death^G2288 and^G2532 hell^G86 were cast^G906^(G5681) into^G1519 the lake^G3041 of fire^G4442. This^G3778 is^G2076^(G5748) the second^G1208 death^G2288.

¹⁵ If anyone was not found written in the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire.

KJVAnd^G2532 whosoever^G1536 was^G2147 not^G3756 found^G2147^(G5681) written^G1125^(G5772) in^G1722 the book^G976 of life^G2222 was cast^G906^(G5681) into^G1519 the lake^G3041 of fire^G4442.

WEB·Revelation 19

¹After these things I heard something like a loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, saying, “Hallelujah! Salvation, power, and glory belong to our God;

KJVAnd^G2532 after^G3326 these things^G5023 I heard^G191^(G5656) a great^G3173 voice^G5456 of much^G4183 people^G3793 in^G1722 heaven^G3772, saying^G3004^(G5723), Alleluia^G239; Salvation^G4991, and^G2532 glory^G1391, and^G2532 honour^G5092, and^G2532 power^G1411, unto the Lord^G2962 our^G2257 God^G2316:

² for his judgments are true and righteous. For he has judged the great prostitute who corrupted the earth with her sexual immorality, and he has avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.”

KJVFor^G3754 true^G228 and^G2532 righteous^G1342 are his^G846 judgments^G2920: for^G3754 he hath judged^G2919^(G5656) the great^G3173 whore^G4204, which^G3748 did corrupt^G5351^(G5707) the earth^G1093 with^G1722 her^G846 fornication^G4202, and^G2532 hath avenged^G1556^(G5656) the blood^G129 of his^G846 servants^G1401 at^G1537 her^G846 hand^G5495.

³ A second said, “Hallelujah! Her smoke goes up forever and ever.”

KJVAnd^G2532 again^G1208 they said^G2046^(G5758), Alleluia^G239. And^G2532 her^G846 smoke^G2586 rose up^G305^(G5719) for^G1519 ever^G165 and ever^G165.

⁴ The twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sits on the throne, saying, “Amen! Hallelujah!”

KJVAnd^G2532 the four^G5064 and^G2532 twenty^G1501 elders^G4245 and^G2532 the four^G5064 beasts^G2226 fell down^G4098^(G5627) and^G2532 worshipped^G4352^(G5656) God^G2316 that sat^G2521^(G5740) on^G1909 the throne^G2362, saying^G3004^(G5723), Amen^G281; Alleluia^G239.

⁵ A voice came from the throne, saying, “Give praise to our God, all you his servants, you who fear him, the small and the great!”

KJVAnd^G2532 a voice^G5456 came^G1831^(G5627) out of^G1537 the throne^G2362, saying^G3004^(G5723), Praise^G134^(G5720) our^G2257 God^G2316, all ye^G3956 his^G846 servants^G1401, and^G2532 ye that fear^G5399^(G5740) him^G846, both^G2532 small^G3398 and^G2532 great^G3173.

⁶ I heard something like the voice of a great multitude, and like the voice of many waters, and like the voice of mighty thunders, saying, “Hallelujah! For the Lord our God, the Almighty, reigns!

KJVAnd^G2532 I heard^G191^(G5656) as it were^G5613 the voice^G5456 of a great^G4183 multitude^G3793, and^G2532 as^G5613 the voice^G5456 of many^G4183 waters^G5204, and^G2532 as^G5613 the voice^G5456 of mighty^G2478 thunderings^G1027, saying^G3004^(G5723), Alleluia^G239: for^G3754 the Lord^G2962 God^G2316 omnipotent^G3841 reigneth^G936^(G5656).

⁷ Let’s rejoice and be exceedingly glad, and let’s give the glory to him. For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his wife has made herself ready.”

KJVLet us be glad^G5463^(G5725) and^G2532 rejoice^G21^(G5741), and^G2532 give^G1325^(G5632) honour^G1391 to him^G846: for^G3754 the marriage^G1062 of the Lamb^G721 is come^G2064^(G5627), and^G2532 his^G846 wife^G1135 hath made^G2090 herself^G1438 ready^G2090^(G5656).

⁸ It was given to her that she would array herself in bright, pure, fine linen, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.

KJVAnd^G2532 to her^G846 was granted^G1325^(G5681) that^G2443 she should be arrayed^G4016^(G5643) in fine linen^G1039, clean^G2513 and^G2532 white^G2986: for^G1063 the fine linen^G1039 is^G2076^(G5748) the righteousness^G1345 of saints^G40.

⁹ He said to me, “Write, ‘Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb.’” He said to me, “These are true words of God.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he saith^G3004^(G5719) unto me^G3427, Write^G1125^(G5657), Blessed^G3107 are they which are called^G2564^(G5772) unto^G1519 the marriage^G1062 supper^G1173 of the Lamb^G721. And^G2532 he saith^G3004^(G5719) unto me^G3427, These^G3778 are^G1526^(G5748) the true^G228 sayings^G3056 of God^G2316.

¹⁰ I fell down before his feet to worship him. He said to me, “Look! Don’t do it! I am a fellow bondservant with you and with your brothers who hold the testimony of Jesus. Worship God, for the testimony of Jesus is the Spirit of Prophecy.”

KJVAnd^G2532 I fell^G4098^(G5627) at^G1715 his^G846 feet^G4228 to worship^G4352^(G5658) him^G846. And^G2532 he said^G3004^(G5719) unto me^G3427, See^G3708^(G5720) thou do it not^G3361: I am^G1510^(G5748) thy^G4675 fellowservant^G4889, and^G2532 of thy^G4675 brethren^G80 that have^G2192^(G5723) the testimony^G3141 of Jesus^G2424: worship^G4352^(G5657) God^G2316: for^G1063 the testimony^G3141 of Jesus^G2424 is^G2076^(G5748) the spirit^G4151 of prophecy^G4394.

¹¹ I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and he who sat on it is called Faithful and True. In righteousness he judges and makes war.

KJVAnd^G2532 I saw^G1492^(G5627) heaven^G3772 opened^G455^(G5772), and^G2532 behold^G2400^(G5628) a white^G3022 horse^G2462; and^G2532 he that sat^G2521^(G5740) upon^G1909 him^G846 was called^G2564^(G5746) Faithful^G4103 and^G2532 True^G228, and^G2532 in^G1722 righteousness^G1343 he doth judge^G2919^(G5719) and^G2532 make war^G4170^(G5719).

¹² His eyes are a flame of fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has names written and a name written which no one knows but he himself.

KJV^G1161 His^G846 eyes^G3788 were as^G5613 a flame^G5395 of fire^G4442, and^G2532 on^G1909 his^G846 head^G2776 were many^G4183 crowns^G1238; and he had^G2192^(G5723) a name^G3686 written^G1125^(G5772), that^G3739 no man^G3762 knew^G1492^(G5758), but^G1508 he himself^G846.

¹³ He is clothed in a garment sprinkled with blood. His name is called “The Word of God.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he was clothed^G4016^(G5772) with a vesture^G2440 dipped^G911^(G5772) in blood^G129: and^G2532 his^G846 name^G3686 is called^G2564^(G5743) The Word^G3056 of God^G2316.

¹⁴ The armies which are in heaven, clothed in white, pure, fine linen, followed him on white horses.

KJVAnd^G2532 the armies^G4753 which were^G3588 in^G1722 heaven^G3772 followed^G190^(G5707) him^G846 upon^G1909 white^G3022 horses^G2462, clothed^G1746^(G5765) in fine linen^G1039, white^G3022 and^G2532 clean^G2513.

¹⁵ Out of his mouth proceeds a sharp, double-edged sword that with it he should strike the nations. He will rule them with an iron rod. He treads the wine press of the fierceness of the wrath of God, the Almighty.

KJVAnd^G2532 out of^G1537 his^G846 mouth^G4750 goeth^G1607^(G5736) a sharp^G3691 sword^G4501, that^G2443 with^G1722 it^G846 he should smite^G3960^(G5661) the nations^G1484: and^G2532 he^G846 shall rule^G4165^(G5692) them^G846 with^G1722 a rod^G4464 of iron^G4603: and^G2532 he^G846 treadeth^G3961^(G5719) the winepress^G3025^G3631 of the fierceness^G2372 and^G2532 wrath^G3709 of Almighty^G3841 God^G2316.

¹⁶ He has on his garment and on his thigh a name written, “KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.”

KJVAnd^G2532 he hath^G2192^(G5719) on^G1909 his vesture^G2440 and^G2532 on^G1909 his^G846 thigh^G3382 a name^G3686 written^G1125^(G5772), KING^G935 OF KINGS^G935, AND^G2532 LORD^G2962 OF LORDS^G2962.

¹⁷ I saw an angel standing in the sun. He cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in the sky, “Come! Be gathered together to the great supper of God,

KJVAnd^G2532 I saw^G1492^(G5627) an^G1520 angel^G32 standing^G2476^(G5761) in^G1722 the sun^G2246; and^G2532 he cried^G2896^(G5656) with a loud^G3173 voice^G5456, saying^G3004^(G5723) to all^G3956 the fowls^G3732 that fly^G4072^(G5740) in^G1722 the midst of heaven^G3321, Come^G1205^(G5773) and^G2532 gather yourselves together^G4863^(G5744) unto^G1519 the supper^G1173 of the great^G3173 God^G2316;

¹⁸ that you may eat the flesh of kings, the flesh of captains, the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them, and the flesh of all men, both free and slave, small and great.”

KJVThat^G2443 ye may eat^G5315^(G5632) the flesh^G4561 of kings^G935, and^G2532 the flesh^G4561 of captains^G5506, and^G2532 the flesh^G4561 of mighty men^G2478, and^G2532 the flesh^G4561 of horses^G2462, and^G2532 of them that sit^G2521^(G5740) on^G1909 them^G846, and^G2532 the flesh^G4561 of all^G3956 men, both free^G1658 and^G2532 bond^G1401, both^G2532 small^G3398 and^G2532 great^G3173.

¹⁹ I saw the beast, the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him who sat on the horse and against his army.

KJVAnd^G2532 I saw^G1492^(G5627) the beast^G2342, and^G2532 the kings^G935 of the earth^G1093, and^G2532 their^G846 armies^G4753, gathered together^G4863^(G5772) to make^G4160^(G5658) war^G4171 against^G3326 him that sat^G2521^(G5740) on^G1909 the horse^G2462, and^G2532 against^G3326 his^G846 army^G4753.

²⁰ The beast was taken, and with him the false prophet who worked the signs in his sight, with which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. These two were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur.

KJVAnd^G2532 the beast^G2342 was taken^G4084^(G5681), and^G2532 with^G3326 him^G5127 the false prophet^G5578 that wrought^G4160^(G5660) miracles^G4592 before^G1799 him^G846, with^G1722 which^G3739 he deceived^G4105^(G5656) them that had received^G2983^(G5631) the mark^G5480 of the beast^G2342, and^G2532 them that worshipped^G4352^(G5723) his^G846 image^G1504.
