Revelation 20:1-3
Contemporary English Version
The Thousand Years
20 I saw an angel come down from heaven, carrying the key to the deep pit and a big chain. 2 (A) He chained the dragon for 1,000 years. It is that old snake, who is also known as the devil and Satan. 3 Then the angel threw the dragon into the pit. He locked and sealed it, so 1,000 years would go by before the dragon could fool the nations again. But after that, it would have to be set free for a little while.
