5And a voice came out from the throne, saying: Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye who fear him, the small and the great.
6And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the sound of many waters, and as the sound of mighty thunders, saying: Alleluia; because the Lord God the Almighty reigns. 7Let us rejoice and exult, and we will give to him the glory; because the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife made herself ready. 8And it was given her that she should be clothed in fine linen, pure and shining; for the fine linen is the righteousness of the saints.
9And he says to me: Write, Happy are they who are called to the marriage-supper of the Lamb. And he says to me: These are the true sayings of God. 10And I fell before his feet to worship him. And he said to me: See thou do it not. I am a fellow-servant of thee and of thy brethren who have the testimony of Jesus; worship God. For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.
11And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse, and he who sat upon him, called Faithful and True; and in righteousness he judges, and makes war. 12His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, which no one knows but he himself. 13And he was clothed with a garment dipped in blood; and his name is called, The Word of God. 14And the armies which are in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white, pure. 15And out of his mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it he may smite the nations; and he will rule them with a rod of iron; and he treads the wine-press of the fierceness of the wrath of God the Almighty. 16And he has on his garment, and on his thigh, a name written: KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
17And I saw an angel standing in the sun. And he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in mid-heaven: Come, and gather yourselves together to the great supper of God; 18that ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains of thousands, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses and of those who sit on them, and the flesh of all, both free and bond, both small and great.
19And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war with him who sat on the horse, and with his army. 20And the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet that wrought the signs in his presence, with which he led astray those who received the mark of the beast, and who warship his image. The two were cast alive into the lake of fire, that burns with brimstone. 21And the rest were slain with the sword of him who sat upon the horse, which went forth out of his mouth; and all the birds were filled with their flesh.
XX. And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the abyss, and a great chain in his hand. 2And he laid hold of the dragon, the old serpent, which is the Devil and Satan, and bound him a thousand years, 3and cast him into the abyss, and shut it, and set a seal over him, that he mislead the nations no more, until the thousand years are finished; after these he must be loosed a little time.
4And 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 whoever did not worship the beast, neither his image, and did not receive the mark upon the forehead, or upon their hand; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years. 5The rest of the dead lived not until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. 6Happy and holy is he that has part in the first resurrection; on these the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
7And when the thousand years are finished, Satan will be loosed out of his prison, 8and will go out to mislead the nations that 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. 9And they went up upon the breadth of the earth, and encompassed the camp of the saints, and the beloved city; and fire came down from God[9] out of heaven, and devoured them. 10And the Devil who misleads them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where are also the beast and the false prophet; and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever.
11And I saw a great white throne, and him who sat upon it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away, and no place was found for them.
