converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of
refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord, and that

on their hands. And they lived and reigned with Christ for a
thousand years. But the rest of the dead did not live again
until the thousand years were finished. This is the first

resurrection. Over such the second death has no power, but
they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with
Him a thousand years.
