The dead were judged by what they had done. The things they had done were written in the books.The sea gave up the dead that were in it. And Death and Hell gave up their dead. Each person was judged by what they had done.Then Death and Hell were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death.Anyone whose name was not written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire.

And you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger. And you invited me in.I needed clothes. And you gave them to me. I was sick. And you took care of me. I was in prison. And you came to visit me.’“ Then the people who have done what is right will answer him.‘ Lord,’ they will ask,‘ when did we see you hungry and feed you? When did we see you thirsty and give you something to drink?When did we see you as a stranger and invite you in? When did we see you needing clothes and give them to you?When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’“ The King will reply,‘ What I’m about to tell you is true. Anything you did for one of the least important of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’“ Then he will say to those on his left,‘ You are cursed! Go away from me into the fire that burns forever. It has been prepared for the devil and his angels.I was hungry. But you gave me nothing to eat. I was thirsty. But you gave me nothing to drink.I was a stranger. But you did not invite me in. I needed clothes. But you did not give me any. I was sick and in prison. But you did not take care of me.’“ They also will answer,‘ Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty and not help you? When did we see you as a stranger or needing clothes or sick or in prison and not help you?’“ He will reply,‘ What I’m about to tell you is true. Anything you didn’t do for one of the least important of these, you didn’t do for me.’“ Then they will go away to be punished forever.
