⁴ Then I saw ^(A)thrones, and ^(B)they sat on them, and ^(C)judgment was given to them. And I saw ^(D)the souls of those who had been beheaded because of ^[a]their ^(E)testimony of Jesus and because of the word of God, and those who had not ^(F)worshiped the beast or his image, and had not received the ^(G)mark on their foreheads and on their hands; and they ^(H)came to life and ^(I)reigned with Christ for a thousand years. ⁵ The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were completed. ^(J)This is the first resurrection. ^6 (K)Blessed and holy is the one who has a part in the first resurrection; over these the ^(L)second death has no power, but they will be ^(M)priests of God and of Christ, and will ^(N)reign with Him for a thousand years.

Judgment at the Throne of God

¹¹ Then I saw a great white ^(A)throne and Him who sat upon it, from whose ^[a]presence ^(B)earth and heaven fled, and ^(C)no place was found for them. ¹² And I saw the dead, the ^(D)great and the small, standing before the throne, and ^[b](E)books were opened; and another ^[c]book was opened, which is ^(F)the book of life; and the dead ^(G)were judged from the things which were written in the ^[d]books, ^(H)according to their deeds. ¹³ And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, and ^(I)Death and Hades ^(J)gave up the dead who were in them; and they were judged, each one of them ^(K)according to their deeds. ¹⁴ Then ^(L)Death and Hades were thrown into ^(M)the lake of fire. This is the ^(N)second death, the lake of fire. ¹⁵ And if ^[e]anyone’s name was not found written in ^(O)the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.
