12 I [also] saw the dead, great and small; they stood before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is [the Book] of Life. And the dead were judged (sentenced) by what they had done [[a]their whole way of feeling and acting, their aims and endeavors] in accordance with what was recorded in the books.
