Book of Common Prayer

20 Then kai I saw an angel angelos coming down katabainō from ek · ho heaven ouranos, having echō in epi his autos hand cheir the ho key kleis to the ho abyss abyssos and kai a great megas chain halysis. · ho ² · kai He seized krateō the ho dragon drakōn, that ho ancient archaios serpent ophis · ho ( who hos is eimi the devil diabolos and kai · ho Satan Satanas), and kai bound deō him autos for a thousand chilioi years etos. ³ Then kai he threw ballō him autos into eis the ho abyss abyssos, · kai locked kleiō and kai sealed sphragizō it over epanō him autos, so hina he could not mē deceive planaō the ho nations ethnos any longer eti, until achri the ho thousand chilioi years etos were finished teleō. After meta that houtos he autos must dei be set loose lyō for a short mikros time chronos.

⁴ And kai I saw thrones thronos, and kai seated kathizō on epi them autos · kai were those autos who had been given the authority didōmi to judge krima. I also kai saw the ho souls psychē of those ho who had been beheaded pelekizō for dia the ho testimony martyria of Jesus Iēsous and kai for dia the ho word logos of ho God theos. · kai These hostis had not ou worshiped proskyneō the ho beast thērion or oude · ho its autos image eikōn and kai had not ou received lambanō its ho mark charagma on epi · ho their foreheads metōpon or kai · ho their autos hands cheir. · kai They came to life zaō and kai reigned basileuō with meta · ho Christ Christos for a thousand chilioi years etos. ⁵ ( The ho rest loipos of the ho dead nekros did not ou come to life zaō until achri the ho thousand chilioi years etos were finished teleō). This houtos is the ho first prōtos resurrection anastasis. · ho ⁶ Blessed makarios and kai holy hagios is the ho one who has echō a part meros in en the ho first prōtos resurrection anastasis! · ho Over epi such houtos the ho second deuteros death thanatos has echō no ou power exousia, but alla they will be eimi priests hiereus of ho God theos and kai of ho Christ Christos, and kai they will reign basileuō with meta him autos for ho a thousand chilioi years etos.

²¹ From apo that tote time Jesus Iēsous began archō · ho to explain deiknyō to ho his autos disciples mathētēs that hoti he autos must dei go aperchomai to eis Jerusalem Hierosolyma and kai suffer paschō many polys things from apo the ho elders presbyteros and kai ruling archiereus priests and kai scribes grammateus, and kai be killed apokteinō, and kai on the ho third tritos day hēmera be raised egeirō. ²² And kai Peter Petros took proslambanō him autos aside · ho and began archō to rebuke epitimaō him autos, saying legō, “ Far hileōs be it from you sy, Lord kyrios! This houtos must never ou mē happen eimi to you sy.” ²³ But de Jesus ho turned strephō and said legō to ho Peter Petros, “ Get hypagō behind opisō me egō, Satan Satanas! You are eimi an obstacle skandalon in my egō way, because hoti you are not ou thinking phroneō the ho thoughts of ho God theos but alla those ho of ho men anthrōpos.”

²⁴ Then tote · ho Jesus Iēsous told legō · ho his autos disciples mathētēs, “ If ei anyone tis resolves thelō to come erchomai after opisō me egō, he must deny aparneomai himself heautou and kai take airō up · ho his autos cross stauros and kai follow akoloutheō me egō. ²⁵ For gar whoever hos resolves thelō to save sōzō · ho his autos life psychē will lose apollymi it autos; but de whoever hos loses apollymi · ho his autos life psychē for my egō sake will find heuriskō it autos. ²⁶ For gar what tis advantage ōpheleō will there be for a person anthrōpos if ean he gains kerdainō the ho whole holos world kosmos yet de forfeits · ho his autos life psychē? Or ē what tis will a person anthrōpos give didōmi in exchange antallagma for · ho his autos life psychē? ²⁷ For gar the ho Son hyios of ho Man anthrōpos is mellō to come erchomai in en the ho glory doxa of ho his autos Father patēr with meta · ho his autos angels angelos, and kai then tote he will repay apodidōmi each hekastos person according kata to · ho his autos conduct praxis. ²⁸ I tell legō you hymeis the truth amēn, there are eimi some tis of those ho standing histēmi here hōde who hostis will not ou mē taste geuomai death thanatos until heōs an they see the ho Son hyios of ho Man anthrōpos coming erchomai in en · ho his autos kingdom basileia.
