The Fall of Lucifer

12 “How(A) you are fallen from heaven,
O [a]Lucifer, son of the morning!
How you are cut down to the ground,
You who weakened the nations!
13 For you have said in your heart:
(B)‘I will ascend into heaven,
(C)I will exalt my throne above the stars of God;
I will also sit on the (D)mount of the congregation
(E)On the farthest sides of the north;
14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds,
(F)I will be like the Most High.’
15 Yet you (G)shall be brought down to Sheol,
To the [b]lowest depths of the Pit.

Satan Thrown Out of Heaven

And war broke out in heaven: (A)Michael and his angels fought (B)with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, but they [a]did not prevail, nor was a place found for [b]them in heaven any longer. So (C)the great dragon was cast out, (D)that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, (E)who deceives the whole world; (F)he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

10 Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, (G)“Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, (H)who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. 11 And (I)they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, (J)and they did not love their lives to the death. 12 Therefore (K)rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! (L)Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, (M)because he knows that he has a short time.”
