Revelation 12:15-17

Expanded Bible

¹⁵ Then the ·snake [serpent] ·poured [spewed; ^Lthrew] water out of its mouth like a river ·toward [after] the woman so the flood would ·carry [sweep] her away [^Coverwhelming water signifies overwhelming trouble; Ps. 18:4; 69:2]. ¹⁶ But the earth ·helped [rescued] the woman by opening its mouth and swallowing the river that ·came [spewed; ^Lwas thrown] from the mouth of the dragon. ¹⁷ Then the dragon was ·very angry [furious; full of wrath] at the woman, and he went off to make war against ·all her other children [^Lthe rest of her seed/offspring]—those who obey God’s commands and who ·have the message Jesus taught [or hold fast to their testimony about Jesus].
