Revelation 20:1-3
New Matthew Bible
The dragon is bound for a thousand years. The dead arise and receive judgment.
20 And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. 2 And he took the dragon, that old serpent, which is the devil and Satan, and he bound him a thousand years, 3 and cast him into the bottomless pit. And he bound him and set a seal on him, that he should deceive the people no more till the thousand years were fulfilled. And after that, he must be loosed for a little season.
