Revelation 20
1 And I saw an angel come down from heaven
ℵ omit
, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him
ℵA ⟨him⟩
up, and set a seal upon himA ⟨sealed him enduringly⟩
, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: andℵA omit
after that he must be loosed a little season.4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded
A ⟨had been made war upon⟩
for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and whichℵ ⟨God. If any therefore⟩
had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and theyℵ ⟨their forehead and on their hand, they both⟩
lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished.
ℵ omit; A omit ⟨But⟩ and ⟨again⟩
This is the first resurrection.6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall
A ⟨they⟩
reign with him a thousand years.7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
8 And shall go out to deceive the nations which are in the four quarters of the earth
ℵ ⟨all the nations in the four corners⟩
, Gog and Magog, toℵ ⟨and to⟩
gather them together to battle: the number of whom is as the sand of the sea.9 And they went up on the breadth of the earth, and compassed the camp of the saints about, and the beloved city: and fire came down from God
A omit
out of heaven, and devoured them.10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the
A ⟨both the⟩
beast and theℵ ⟨where the⟩
false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.11 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
12 And I saw the dead,
ℵ ⟨dead, both⟩
small and great, stand before GodℵA ⟨great and small, stand before the throne⟩
; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged
ℵ ⟨condemned⟩
every man according to their works.14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This
ℵ ⟨And this⟩
is the second deathℵA ⟨death; the lake of fire⟩
.15 And whosoever was not
ℵ ⟨shall not be⟩
found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.About the Pointing
The text of the Coverdale Psalter follows the 1928 American Book of Common Prayer. The pointing, suitably adapted, is taken from Charles Macpherson, Edward C. Bairstow, and Percy C. Buck, The English Psalter (Novello & Co., 1925).
