Satan’s Accusation of Job Now the day came when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD– and Satan also arrived among them.

Vision Four: The Priest Next I saw Joshua the high priest standing before the angel of the LORD, with Satan standing at his right hand to accuse him.

He seized the dragon– the ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan– and tied him up for a thousand years.

And the devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet are too, and they will be tormented there day and night forever and ever.
