The Thousand years
20 And I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key to the abyss and holding in his hand a great chain,. 2He seized the dragon,that ancient serpent, who is the devil, or Satan, and bound him for a thousand years. 3He threw him into the abyss, and locked and sealed it over him, to keep him from deceiving the nations any more until the thousand years were ended. After that, he must be set free for a short time.
4I saw thrones on which were seated those who had been given authority to judge. And i saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of the word of God.They had not worshiped the beast or his image and had not received his mark on their foreheads or their hands. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. 5(the rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended.) This is the first resurrection. 6Blessed and holy are those who have part in the first resurrection. The second death has no power over them, but they will be priests of God and of Christ and will reign with him for a thousand years.
Satan,s Doom
7When the thousand years are over, Satan will be released from his prison 8and will go out to deceive the nations in the four corner,s of the earth_Gog and Magog_ to gather them for battle. In number they are like the sand of the seashore. 9They marched across the breadth of the earth and surrounded the camp of God,s people, the city he loves, But fire came down from heaven and devoured them. 10And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulphar, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
The Dead Are Judged
11Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. Earth and sky fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. 12And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened . Another book was opened, which is the book of Life. The dead were judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books. 13The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to what he had done. 14Then death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death,. 15If anyone,s name was not found written in the Book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.
Psalm20
For the director of music. A psalm of David.
1May the Lord answer you when you are in distress;
may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.
2May he send you help from the sanctuary
and grant you support from Zion.
3May he remember all your sacrifices
and accept your burnt offerings.
4May he give you the desire of your heart
nd make all your plans succeed.
5We will shout for joy when you are victorious
and will lift up our banners in the name of our
God.
May the Lord grant all your requests.
6Now I know that the Lord saves the anointed;
he answers him from his holy heaven
with the saving power of his right hand.
7Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.
8They are brought to their knees and fall,
but we rise up and stand firm.
9O Lord, save the King!
Answer us when we call!
misses out verses 10/11
13Keep your servant also from willful sins;
may they not rule over me.
then will i be blameless,
innocent of great transgressions.
14May the words of my mouth and the meditation of
my heart
be pleasing in your sight,
O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.
Psalm 40
For the director of music. Of David, A psalm.
1I waited patiently for the Lord;
he turned to me and heard my cry.
2He lifted me out of the slimy pit,
out of the mud and mire;
he set my feet on a rock
and gave me a firm place to stand.
3He put a new song in my mouth
a hymn of praise to our God.
Many put their trust in the Lord.
4Blessed is the man
who makes the ~Lord his trust,
who does not look to the proud,
to those who turn to false gods.
5Many, O Lord my God
are the wonders you have done.
the things you planned for us
no-one can recount to you;
were I speak and tell of them
they would be too many to declare.
6Sacrifice and offerings you did not desire,
but my ears you have pierced
(11You rebuke and discipline men for their sin;
you consume their wealth like a moth-
each man is but a breath Selah
12"Hear my prayer, o Lord,
Listen to my cry for help;
be not deaf to my weeping.
For I dwell with you as an alien,
a stranger, as my fathers were.
13Look away from me, that I may rejoice again
before I depart and am no more aware. ")
Psalm40
burnt offerings and sin offerings
you did not require.
7Then I said " Here I am, I have come_
it is written about me in the scroll.
8I desire to do your will, O my God;
your law is within my heart. "
9I proclaim righteousness in the great assembly;
I do not seal my lips,
as you know, O Lord.
10I do not hide your righteousness in my heart;
I speak of your faithfulness and salvation.
I do not conceal your love and your truth
from the great assembly.
11Do not withhold your mercy from me, O Lord;
may your love and your truth always protect me.
12For troubles without number surround me;
my sins have overtaken me, I cannot see.
They are more than the hairs of my head,
and my heart fails within me.
13Be pleased, O Lord, to save me;
O Lord, come quickly to help me.
14May all who seek to take my life
be put to shame and confusion;
may all who desire my ruin
be turned back in disgrace.
15May those who say to me , " Aha! Aha!"
be appalled at their own shame.
16But may all who seek you;
rejoice and be glad in you;
may those who love your salvation always say
" The Lord be exalted!2
17 Yet I am poor and needy;
may the Lord think of me.
You are my help and my deliverer;
O my God, do not delay.
