Revelation 20:11-13

EasyEnglish Bible

God judges all the dead people

¹¹ Then I saw a great white throne. I saw that God was sitting on it. The earth and the sky rushed away from the place where he sat. There was no longer any place for them. ¹² I also saw the people who had died, important people and ordinary people. They were standing in front of the great throne. Then someone opened books to see what was in them. God had written in them all the things that the people had done. Then someone opened another book which is God's book of life.^[a] God judged the people who had died. He looked in the books to see what they had done, and he decided what was right.

¹³ The sea brought up all the dead people who were in it. Death and Hades, the place for dead people, brought up all the dead people who were there too. God judged each person. God saw what they had done, and he decided what was right.
