Revelation 12:7-12
Evangelical Heritage Version
War in Heaven
7 There was also a war in heaven. Michael and his angels fought with the dragon. The dragon fought back along with his angels, 8 but he was not strong enough. There was no longer a place for them[a] in heaven. 9 The great dragon was thrown down—the ancient serpent, the one called the Devil and Satan, the one who leads the whole inhabited earth astray—he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
10 I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying:
Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God
and the authority of his Christ,[b]
because the accuser of our brothers[c] has been thrown down,
the one who accuses them before our God day and night.
11 They conquered him
because of the blood of the Lamb and
because of the word of their testimony.
They did not love their lives in the face of death.
12 For this reason, rejoice, you heavens and those who dwell in them.
Woe to the earth and the sea,
for the Devil has gone down to you.
He is full of rage, because he knows that his time is short.

New International Version
Revelation 12:7-12
New International Version
7 Then war broke out in heaven. Michael(A) and his angels fought against the dragon,(B) and the dragon and his angels(C) 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(D) called the devil,(E) or Satan,(F) who leads the whole world astray.(G) He was hurled to the earth,(H) and his angels with him.
10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven(I) say:
“Now have come the salvation(J) and the power
and the kingdom of our God,
and the authority of his Messiah.
For the accuser of our brothers and sisters,(K)
who accuses them before our God day and night,
has been hurled down.
11 They triumphed over(L) him
by the blood of the Lamb(M)
and by the word of their testimony;(N)
they did not love their lives so much
as to shrink from death.(O)
12 Therefore rejoice, you heavens(P)
and you who dwell in them!
But woe(Q) to the earth and the sea,(R)
because the devil has gone down to you!
He is filled with fury,
because he knows that his time is short.”
