²⁸ So Jesus said to them, “Assuredly I say to you, that in the regeneration, when the Son of Man sits on the throne of His glory, ^(A)you who have followed Me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

²⁸ “But you are those who have continued with Me in ^(A)My trials. ²⁹ And ^(B)I bestow upon you a kingdom, just as My Father bestowed one upon Me, ³⁰ that ^(C)you may eat and drink at My table in My kingdom, ^(D)and sit on thrones judging the twelve tribes of Israel.”

² Do you not know that ^(A)the saints will judge the world? And if the world will be judged by you, are you unworthy to judge the smallest matters? ³ Do you not know that we shall ^(B)judge angels? How much more, things that pertain to this life?

The Saints Reign with Christ 1,000 Years

⁴ And I saw ^(A)thrones, and they sat on them, and ^(B)judgment was committed to them. Then I saw ^(C)the souls of those who had been beheaded for their witness to Jesus and for the word of God, ^(D)who had not worshiped the beast ^(E)or his image, and had not received his mark on their foreheads or on their hands. And they ^(F)lived and ^(G)reigned with Christ for ^[a]a thousand years.

¹³ Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for ^(A)new heavens and a ^(B)new earth in which righteousness dwells.

²⁷ For ^(A)the Son of Man will come in the glory of His Father ^(B)with His angels, ^(C)and then He will reward each according to his works.
