Revelation 20:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 Blessed and holy is he, that hath part in the first resurrection: for on such the [a]second death hath no power: but they shall be the Priests of God and of Christ, [b]and shall reign with him a thousand years.
7 [c]And when the [d]thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
8 [e]And shall go out to deceive the people, which are in the four quarters of the earth: even (A)Gog and Magog, to gather them together to battle, whose number is as the sand of the Sea.
