  1. Revelation 12:17 Some manuscripts And I stood, connecting the sentence with 13:1

12 Therefore rejoice, you heavens(A)
    and you who dwell in them!
But woe(B) to the earth and the sea,(C)
    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(D) saw that he had been hurled to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to the male child.(E) 14 The woman was given the two wings of a great eagle,(F) 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,(G) out of the serpent’s reach. 15 Then from his mouth the serpent(H) 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(I) against the rest of her offspring(J)—those who keep God’s commands(K) and hold fast their testimony about Jesus.(L)
