|Modern translations say "...and '''they''' will be tormented forever and ever." However, this is not found in the Greek manuscripts, and alters the entire meaning: without "they," the phrase indicates only Satan is tormented evermore, while the inclusion of "they" implies the beast and false prophet are likewise tormented forever along with the dragon.
As previously indicated/stated, the Greek phrase usually rendered "forever and ever" is more concisely translated "ages of ages" or "end of the ages," which would not necessarily imply literal eternity but simply a long duration of hellfire's burning. (see: [[Annihilationism]])
