1 Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding in his hand the key to the abyss and a great chain. 2 He seized the dragon, the ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan, *the deceiver of the whole world, 𝔐C,K [66.8%] ¦ the deceiver of the world, ANT [0.5%] ¦ — 𝔐A CT TR [32.2%]the deceiver of the whole world, and he bound him for a thousand years. 3 He threw him into the abyss and †locked 𝔐A(20),C,K [87.6%] ¦ bound 𝔐A(19) [9.6%] ¦ locked him in TR [0.5%]locked and sealed it over him, so that he would ‡no longer 𝔐A(25),C,K [84.6%] • TR [2.4%] ¦ not 𝔐A(17) [11.1%]no longer deceive the nations until §the 𝔐C,K [73.2%] ¦ a 𝔐A [25.4%]the thousand years were completed. After that he must be released for a short time.

4 Then I saw thrones, and those who sat on them were given authority to judge. I also saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God. They had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not received the mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for *the 𝔐K [49.3%] ¦ a 𝔐A,C ANT CT PCK SCR [50.7%]the thousand years. 5 †(The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were completed.)

This is the first resurrection. 6 Blessed and holy are those who take part in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of ‡Christ, and they will reign with him 𝔐A,C [67.5%] ¦ Christ.

11 Then I saw a great white throne and one who sat upon it.
