Apocalipsis 12
Biblia del Jubileo
12 ¶ Y una gran señal apareció en el cielo: una mujer vestida del sol, y la luna debajo de sus pies, y sobre su cabeza una corona de doce estrellas.
2 Y estando encinta, clamaba con dolores de parto, y sufría tormento por dar a luz.
3 Y apareció otra señal en el cielo: y he aquí un grande dragón bermejo, que tenía siete cabezas y diez cuernos, y en sus cabezas siete diademas.
4 Y su cola arrastraba la tercera parte de las estrellas del cielo, y las echó en tierra. Y el dragón se paró delante de la mujer que estaba de parto, a fin de devorar a su hijo cuando hubiera nacido.
5 Y ella dio a luz un hijo varón, el cual había de regir todos los gentiles con vara de hierro; y su hijo fue arrebatado para Dios y para su trono.
6 Y la mujer huyó al desierto, donde tiene lugar aparejado de Dios, para que allí la mantengan mil doscientos sesenta días.
7 Y fue hecha una gran batalla en el cielo: Miguel y sus ángeles lidiaban contra el dragón; y lidiaba el dragón y sus ángeles.
8 Y no prevalecieron, ni su lugar fue más hallado en el cielo.
9 Y fue lanzado fuera aquel gran dragón, que es la serpiente antigua, que es llamado diablo y el Satanás, el cual engaña al mundo entero; y fue arrojado en tierra, y sus ángeles fueron derribados con él.
10 Y oí una gran voz en el cielo que decía: Ahora es hecha en el cielo salvación, y virtud, y Reino de nuestro Dios, y potencia de su Cristo; porque el acusador de nuestros hermanos es ya derribado, el cual los acusaba delante de nuestro Dios día y noche.
11 Y ellos le han vencido por la sangre del Cordero, y por la Palabra de su testimonio; y no han amado sus vidas hasta la muerte.
12 ¶ Por lo cual alegraos, cielos, y los que moráis en ellos. ¡Ay de los moradores de la tierra y del mar! Porque el diablo ha descendido a vosotros, teniendo gran ira, sabiendo que tiene poco tiempo.
13 Y cuando vio el dragón que él había sido derribado en tierra, persiguió a la mujer que había dado a luz el hijo varón.
14 Y fueron dadas a la mujer dos alas del gran águila, para que de la presencia de la serpiente volara al desierto a su lugar, donde es mantenida por un tiempo, y tiempos, y la mitad de un tiempo.
15 Y la serpiente echó de su boca tras la mujer agua como un río, a fin de hacer que fuera arrebatada del río.
16 Y la tierra ayudó a la mujer; y la tierra abrió su boca, y sorbió el río que había echado el dragón de su boca.
17 Entonces el dragón fue airado contra la mujer; y se fue a hacer guerra contra los otros de la simiente de ella, los cuales guardan los mandamientos de Dios, y tienen el testimonio de Jesucristo.

A mulher e o dragão
12 Então apareceu no céu um grande sinal: era uma mulher vestida de Sol, com os pés pousados sobre a Lua e com uma coroa formada por doze estrelas na cabeça. 2 Estava grávida, e já com as dores de parto, e gritava na ânsia de dar à luz.
3 E apareceu um outro sinal em que um dragão vermelho se apresentava com sete cabeças e dez chifres; e em cada cabeça tinha uma coroa. 4 Com a cauda arrastou para trás de si um terço das estrelas do céu, lançando-as sobre a Terra. E colocou-se na frente da mulher que ia dar à luz, pronto para devorar a criança logo que nascesse.
5 Ela teve, com efeito, um filho, o qual mais tarde haveria de governar todas as nações com uma vara de ferro. E o menino foi logo arrebatado para Deus, para junto do seu trono. 6 Quanto à mulher, fugiu para o deserto, onde Deus lhe preparou um lugar, cuidando dela durante 1260 dias.
7 E deu-se uma guerra no céu. Miguel e os anjos sob a sua responsabilidade lutaram contra o dragão e contra o seu exército de anjos. 8 O dragão perdeu a batalha e foi expulso do céu. 9 Ele é a antiga serpente, conhecida com o nome de Diabo, ou Satanás, aquele que engana o mundo inteiro. E foi assim lançado para a Terra, mais os seus demónios.
10 Ouvi depois uma voz clamando através do céu: “Aconteceu enfim! A salvação final, o poder e o reino de Deus, assim como a autoridade de Cristo manifestaram-se. O acusador dos nossos irmãos foi atirado do céu para a Terra, esse que os acusava dia e noite. 11 Mas eles venceram-no pelo sangue do Cordeiro, e com o poder do seu testemunho; pois puseram de lado o amor às suas próprias vidas a ponto de morrerem. 12 Alegrem-se pois, habitantes do céu! Contudo, são de lamentar os que vivem no mundo, porque o Diabo desceu para o vosso meio com grande ira, com muito ódio, pois sabe que já não dispõe de muito tempo.”
13 Quando o dragão se viu expulso para a Terra, perseguiu a mulher que tinha dado à luz o menino. 14 Mas deram à mulher as duas asas de uma grande águia, a fim de que pudesse voar para o deserto, onde lhe tinha sido preparado o lugar para se proteger da serpente, durante três anos e meio.
15 E a serpente lançou da sua boca um rio com um grande caudal de água, com a intenção de fazer com que ela fosse arrastada por essa grande torrente e assim se perdesse. 16 Mas a Terra ajudou a mulher, porque abriu fendas que absorveram as águas que o dragão tinha lançado da boca. 17 Este então, furioso, desfechou um ataque contra o resto dos filhos da mulher, os que obedecem à palavra de Deus e confessam e provam que pertencem a Jesus Cristo.
18 Então, ele pôs-se em pé à beira do mar.
Revelation 12
New International Version
The Woman and the Dragon
12 A great sign(A) appeared in heaven:(B) a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars(C) on her head. 2 She was pregnant and cried out in pain(D) as she was about to give birth. 3 Then another sign appeared in heaven:(E) an enormous red dragon(F) with seven heads(G) and ten horns(H) and seven crowns(I) on its heads. 4 Its tail swept a third(J) of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth.(K) The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that it might devour her child(L) the moment he was born. 5 She gave birth to a son, a male child, who “will rule all the nations with an iron scepter.”[a](M) And her child was snatched up(N) to God and to his throne. 6 The woman fled into the wilderness to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days.(O)
7 Then war broke out in heaven. Michael(P) and his angels fought against the dragon,(Q) and the dragon and his angels(R) fought back. 8 But he was not strong enough, and they lost their place in heaven. 9 The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent(S) called the devil,(T) or Satan,(U) who leads the whole world astray.(V) He was hurled to the earth,(W) and his angels with him.
10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven(X) say:
“Now have come the salvation(Y) and the power
and the kingdom of our God,
and the authority of his Messiah.
For the accuser of our brothers and sisters,(Z)
who accuses them before our God day and night,
has been hurled down.
11 They triumphed over(AA) him
by the blood of the Lamb(AB)
and by the word of their testimony;(AC)
they did not love their lives so much
as to shrink from death.(AD)
12 Therefore rejoice, you heavens(AE)
and you who dwell in them!
But woe(AF) to the earth and the sea,(AG)
because the devil has gone down to you!
He is filled with fury,
because he knows that his time is short.”
13 When the dragon(AH) saw that he had been hurled to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to the male child.(AI) 14 The woman was given the two wings of a great eagle,(AJ) so that she might fly to the place prepared for her in the wilderness, where she would be taken care of for a time, times and half a time,(AK) out of the serpent’s reach. 15 Then from his mouth the serpent(AL) spewed water like a river, to overtake the woman and sweep her away with the torrent. 16 But the earth helped the woman by opening its mouth and swallowing the river that the dragon had spewed out of his mouth. 17 Then the dragon was enraged at the woman and went off to wage war(AM) against the rest of her offspring(AN)—those who keep God’s commands(AO) and hold fast their testimony about Jesus.(AP)

Revelation 12
King James Version
12 And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:
2 And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.
3 And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.
4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.
5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.
6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.
7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.
11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
12 Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.
13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.
14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.
16 And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
