Revelation 20:1-3

International Children’s Bible

The 1,000 Years

20 I saw an angel coming down from heaven. He had the key to the bottomless pit. He also held a large chain in his hand. ² The angel grabbed the dragon, that old snake who is the devil. The angel tied him up for 1,000 years. ³ Then he threw him into the bottomless pit and closed it and locked it over him. The angel did this so that he could not trick the people of the earth anymore until the 1,000 years were ended. After 1,000 years he must be set free for a short time.
