¹and I did see an angel descend from heaven, having the key to the abyss and a great chain in his hand.

²and he did seize the serpent, the serpent the ancient, who is the devil (himself) and the Satan, and him bound for thousand years,

³and threw into in abyss into, and it shut and sealed from above, so that he shall more not mislead the nations, until the thousand years will itself complete; then must he let out be for a short time.

⁴and I did see thrones, and they has themselves sat down on them, and the judgment is them given become; and the souls of the (ones), who they did them chopped off the head on account of the witness say of Yehoshua and on account of Hashem's word, and which have themselves not bowed to the Beast, nor to its image, and not taken the mark on their forehead and not on their hand; and they are alive become, and have reign together with the Moshiach thousand years.

⁵the remaining dead (ones) are not living become until the thousand years have self finished. this is the first resurrection of the dead ones.

⁶blessed and holy is the one, who has a share in the first standing up again; over the these has the second death not any authority; but they will be kohenim for Hashem and for the Moshiach, and will rule with him the thousand years. and when it will self finish the thousand years,

⁷will the Satan released be from his prison,

⁸and will go out to mislead the nations in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, them to gather to the battle; their number is as the number of the sands by the sea.

⁹and they are go up on the breadth of the earth and did surround the camp of the saints and the beloved city; and a fire did go down from heaven, and them devour. (Ezekiel 38, 2, 22.)

¹⁰and the devil, who did them deceive, is thrown become in the river/lake of fire and sulfur, where (it find self) also the Beast and the false prophet; and they will tormented be by day and by night forever and ever.

¹¹and I did see a great white throne of glory, and the one, who is sat on it; before His face are earth and heaven flee; and any place has self more not found for them.

¹²and I did see the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne of glory; and books are was opened; and an other Sefer is opened become, this is the book of the living (book of life); and the the dead are judged become out that, which stands written in the books, according to their deeds.

¹³and the sea did give the dead ones, which have self found in it; and the death and the Sheol deepest did give up the dead (ones), who are was in them; and every one is judged become according to his works.

¹⁴and the death and the Sheol deepest are thrown become in the river/lake of fire. that is the second death—the river/lake of fire.

¹⁵and who it has self not found written in in the book of life, this one is thrown become in the river/lake of fire.
