Revelation 20:4-6
English Standard Version
4 Then I saw (A)thrones, and (B)seated on them were those to whom the authority to judge was committed. Also I saw (C)the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus and for the word of God, and those (D)who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands. (E)They came to life and (F)reigned with Christ for a thousand years. 5 The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection. 6 (G)Blessed and holy is the one who shares in the first resurrection! Over such (H)the second death has no power, but they will be (I)priests of God and of Christ, and they (J)will reign with him for a thousand years.
