¹⁰ And the devil, who deceived them,^(A) was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur,^(B) where the beast^(C) and the false prophet^(D) had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.^(E)

The Judgment of the Dead

¹¹ Then I saw a great white throne^(F) and him who was seated on it. The earth and the heavens fled from his presence,^(G) and there was no place for them. ¹² And I saw the dead, great and small,^(H) standing before the throne, and books were opened.^(I) Another book was opened, which is the book of life.^(J) The dead were judged^(K) according to what they had done^(L) as recorded in the books. ¹³ The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades^(M) gave up the dead^(N) that were in them, and each person was judged according to what they had done.^{(O) 14} Then death^(P) and Hades^(Q) were thrown into the lake of fire.^(R) The lake of fire is the second death.^{(S) 15} Anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life^(T) was thrown into the lake of fire.

⁶ God is just:^(A) He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you^{(B) 7} and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven^(C) in blazing fire^(D) with his powerful angels.^{(E) 8} He will punish^(F) those who do not know God^(G) and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus.^{(H) 9} They will be punished with everlasting destruction^(I) and shut out from the presence of the Lord^(J) and from the glory of his might^{(K) 10} on the day^(L) he comes to be glorified^(M) in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you.^(N)

¹¹ With this in mind, we constantly pray for you,^(O) that our God may make you worthy^(P) of his calling,^(Q) and that by his power he may bring to fruition your every desire for goodness^(R) and your every deed prompted by faith.^{(S) 12} We pray this so that the name of our Lord Jesus may be glorified in you,^(T) and you in him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.^[a]

⁴⁵ And if your foot causes you to stumble,^(A) cut it off. It is better for you to enter life crippled than to have two feet and be thrown into hell.^{(B) [46] [a]}
