Revelation 12:10-12

Contemporary English Version

¹⁰^(A) Then I heard a voice from heaven shout,

“Our God has shown
his saving power,
    and his kingdom has come!
God's own Chosen One
    has shown his authority.
Satan accused our people
in the presence of God
    day and night.
Now he has been thrown out!

¹¹“Our people defeated Satan
    because of the blood^[a]
of the Lamb
    and the message of God.
They were willing
    to give up their lives.

¹²“The heavens should rejoice,
together with everyone
    who lives there.
But pity the earth
    and the sea,
because the devil
was thrown down
    to the earth.
He knows his time is short,
    and he is very angry.”
