12A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and a crown of 12 stars on her head.G2532G3700G3173G4592G1722G3772G1135G4016G2246G2532G4582G5270G846G4228G2532G1909G846G2776G4735G1427G7922She was pregnant and cried out in labor and agony to give birth.G2532G2192G1722G1064G2896G5605G2532G928G50883Then another sign appeared in heaven: There was a great fiery red dragon having seven heads and 10 horns, and on his heads were seven diadems.G2532G3700G243G4592G1722G3772G2532G2400G3173G4450G1404G2192G2033G2776G2532G1176G2768G2532G2033G1238G1909G846G27764His tail swept away a third of the stars in heaven and hurled them to the earth. And the dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she did give birth he might devour her child.G2532G846G3769G4951G5154G792G3772G2532G906G846G1519G1093G2532G1404G2476G1799G1135G3588G3195G5088G2443G2719G846G5043G3752G50885But she gave birth to a Son— a male who is going to shepherd all nations with an iron scepter— and her child was caught up to God and to His throne.G2532G5088G730G5207G3739G3195G4165G3956G1484G1722G4464G4603G2532G846G5043G726G4314G2316G2532G846G23626The woman fled into the wilderness, where she had a place prepared by God, to be fed there for 1,260 days.G2532G1135G5343G1519G2048G3699G2192G5117G2090G575G2316G2443G5142G846G1563G5507G1250G1835G2250
The Dragon Thrown Out of Heaven
7Then war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon. The dragon and his angels also fought,G2532G1096G4171G1722G3772G3413G2532G846G32G4170G2596G1404G2532G1404G4170G2532G846G328but he could not prevail, and there was no place for them in heaven any longer.G2532G2480G3756G3777G2147G846G5117G2147G2089G1722G37729So the great dragon was thrown out— the ancient serpent, who is called the Devil and Satan, the one who deceives the whole world. He was thrown to earth, and his angels with him.G2532G3173G1404G906G744G3789G2564G1228G2532G4567G3588G4105G3650G3625G906G1519G1093G2532G846G32G906G3326G84610Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: The salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God and the authority of His Messiah have now come, because the accuser of our brothers has been thrown out: the one who accuses them before our God day and night.G2532G191G3173G5456G3004G1722G3772G737G1096G4991G2532G1411G2532G932G2257G2316G2532G1849G846G5547G3754G2723G2257G80G2598G3588G2725G846G1799G2257G2316G2250G2532G357111They conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they did not love their lives in the face of death.G2532G846G3528G846G1223G129G721G2532G1223G3056G846G3141G2532G25G3756G846G5590G891G228812Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! Woe to the earth and the sea, for the Devil has come down to you with great fury, because he knows he has a short time.G1223G5124G2165G3772G2532G4637G1722G846G3759G2730G1093G2532G2281G3754G1228G2597G4314G5209G2192G3173G2372G1492G3754G2192G3641G2540
The Woman Persecuted
13When the dragon saw that he had been thrown to earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male.G2532G3753G1404G1492G3754G906G1519G1093G1377G1135G3748G5088G73014The woman was given two wings of a great eagle, so that she could fly from the serpent's presence to her place in the wilderness, where she was fed for a time, times, and half a time.G2532G1135G1325G1417G4420G3173G105G2443G4072G1519G2048G1519G846G5117G3699G5142G1563G2540G2532G2540G2532G2255G2540G575G4383G378915From his mouth the serpent spewed water like a river after the woman, to sweep her away in a torrent.G2532G3789G906G1537G846G4750G5204G5613G4215G3694G1135G2443G4160G5026G421616But the earth helped the woman: the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river that the dragon had spewed from his mouth.G2532G1093G997G1135G2532G1093G455G846G4750G2532G2666G4215G3739G1404G906G1537G846G475017So the dragon was furious with the woman and left to wage war against the rest of her offspring— those who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony about Jesus.G2532G1404G3710G1909G1135G2532G565G4160G4171G3326G3062G846G4690G3588G5083G1785G2316G2532G2192G3141G2424G554718He stood on the sand of the sea.
