¹I saw an angel coming down out of heaven, having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand.

¹¶ A ka kite ahau i tetahi anahera e heke iho ana i te rangi, kei a ia te ki o te poka torere, me tetahi mekameka nui i tona ringaringa.

²He seized the dragon, the old serpent, which is the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole inhabited earth, and bound him for a thousand years,

²Na ka mau ia ki te tarakona, ki te nakahi onamata, ko te Rewera nei ia, ko Hatana hoki, ka herehere i a ia kotahi mano nga tau;

³and cast him into the abyss, and shut it, and sealed it over him, that he should deceive the nations no more, until the thousand years were finished. After this, he must be freed for a short time.

³Ka maka i a ia ki te poka torere, uakina ana, whakapiri rawa te hiri ki runga ki a ia, kei whakapohehe ia i nga tauiwi i muri iho, kia taka ra ano nga tau kotahi mano: a muri iho i enei mea me wewete ia, he taima iti kau ia.

⁴I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them. I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God, and such as didn’t worship the beast nor his image, and didn’t receive the mark on their forehead and on their hand. They lived, and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.

⁴I kite ano ahau i nga torona, e noho ana hoki ratou i runga, i hoatu ano hoki te whakawa ki a ratou: i nga wairua hoki o te hunga i poutoa mo te whakaaturanga i a Ihu, mo te kupu hoki a te Atua, te hunga kahore i koropiko ki te kararehe, ki tona whakapakoko ranei, kihai hoki i meatia te tohu ki o ratou rae, ki o ratou ringaringa; na ka ora ratou, ka kingi tahi me te Karaiti, kotahi mano tau.

⁵The rest of the dead didn’t live until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.

⁵Kihai ia i ora ake te toenga o nga tupapaku, a taka noa nga tau kotahi mano. Ko te aranga tuatahi tenei.

⁶Blessed and holy is he who has part in the first resurrection. Over these, the second death has no power, but they will be priests of God and of Christ, and will reign with him one thousand years.

⁶Hari tonu, tapu tonu te tangata he wahi nei tona i te aranga tuatahi: e kore te matenga tuarua e whai mana ki a ratou; engari hei tohunga ratou ma te Atua, ma te Karaiti hoki, a kotahi mano nga tau e kingi tahi ai ratou me ia.

⁷And after the thousand years, Satan will be released from his prison,

⁷A, no ka pahemo nga tau kotahi mano, ka wetekina a Hatana i roto i tona whare herehere.

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

⁸A ka haere ia ki te whakapohehe i nga tauiwi i nga pito e wha o te whenua, i a Koka raua ko Makoka, e huihui ai ratou ki te taua: ko te tokomaha o ratou rite tonu ki te onepu o te moana.

⁹They went up over the breadth of the earth, and surrounded the camp of the saints, and the beloved city. Fire came down out of heaven from God, and devoured them.

⁹Na haere ana ratou ki te whanui o te whenua, karapotia ana e ratou te nohoanga o te hunga tapu, me te pa e arohaina ana: na ko te hekenga iho o te kapura i te Atua i te rangi, pau ake ratou.

¹⁰The devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet are also. They will be tormented day and night forever and ever.

¹⁰Na, ko te rewera i whakapohehe nei i a ratou, panga ana ia ki te roto kapura whanariki, ki te wahi kei reira nei te kararehe me te poropiti teka, a ka whakamamaetia ratou i te ao, i te po, ake ake.

¹¹I saw a great white throne, and him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. There was found no place for them.

¹¹¶ A ka kite ahau i tetahi torona nui, ma, i tetahi hoki e noho ana i runga, rere ana te whenua me te rangi i tona kanohi; kahore hoki i kitea he wahi mo raua.

¹²I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing before the throne, and they opened books. Another book was opened, which is the book of life. The dead were judged out of the things which were written in the books, according to their works.

¹²I kite ano ahau i te hunga mate, i te hunga nunui, i te hunga ririki, e tu ana i mua o te torona; na kua whakatuwheratia nga pukapuka; kua whakatuwheratia ano hoki tetahi atu pukapuka, ko te pukapuka o te ora: kei nga mea hoki i tuhituhia ki aua pukapuka he whakawa mo te hunga mate, he mea whakarite tonu ki a ratou mahi.

¹³The sea gave up the dead who were in it. Death and Hades or, Hell gave up the dead who were in them. They were judged, each one according to his works.

¹³I tukua mai ano e te moana te hunga mate i roto i a ia; i tukua mai hoki e te mate, e te po, te hunga mate i roto i a raua: na ka whakawakia tena tangata, tena, he mea whakarite ki a ratou mahi.

¹⁴Death and Hades or, Hell were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire.

¹⁴Na ka panga te mate me te po ki te roto ahi. Ko te tuarua tenei o nga mate, ara ko te roto ahi.

¹⁵If anyone was not found written in the book of life, he was cast into the lake of fire.

¹⁵A, ki te kitea tetahi kihai i tuhituhia ki te pukapuka o te ora, i panga ia ki te roto ahi.
