    3And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal on him, so that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years were fulfilled; and after that, he must be released for a little while.

    4And I saw thrones, and those who sat on them, and judgment was given to them: and I saw the souls of those who were beheaded for the witness of Jesus and for the word of God, who had not worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.

    5But the rest of the dead did not live again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.

    6Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. On such 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 ended, Satan will be released from his prison,

    8And will go out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together for battle; the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.

    14But the two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, so that she could fly into the wilderness to her place, where she was nourished for a time, times, and half a time, away from the presence of the serpent.

    15And the serpent poured water like a river out of his mouth after the woman, so that he might cause her to be swept away with the flood.

    16But the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and drank up the river which the dragon poured out of his mouth.

    17So the dragon became enraged with the woman, and went off to make war with the rest of her children, who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus.
