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)

Ang Babae at ang Dragon
12 Pagkatapos nito, isang kagila-gilalas na bagay ang nagpakita sa langit. Nakita ko ang isang babaeng nadaramitan ng araw at nakatuntong sa buwan. May korona siya sa ulo na may 12 bituin. 2 Manganganak na siya, kaya dumadaing siya dahil sa matinding sakit.
3 May isa pang kagila-gilalas na bagay akong nakita sa langit: isang malaking pulang dragon na may pitong ulo at sampung sungay na may korona sa bawat ulo. 4 Tinangay ng buntot niya ang ikatlong bahagi ng mga bituin sa langit at itinapon sa lupa. Tumayo ang dragon sa harap ng babaeng manganganak na upang lamunin ang sanggol sa oras na isilang ito. 5 At nanganak nga ang babae ng isang sanggol na lalaki na siyang maghahari[a] sa lahat ng bansa sa pamamagitan ng kamay na bakal. Hindi nakain ng dragon ang sanggol dahil inagaw agad ang sanggol at dinala sa Dios doon sa kanyang trono. 6 Ang babae naman ay tumakas sa ilang, sa isang lugar na inihanda ng Dios para sa kanya, upang maalagaan siya roon sa loob ng 1,260 araw.
7 Pagkatapos nito, nagkaroon ng digmaan sa langit. Si Micael at ang mga kasama niyang mga anghel ay nakipaglaban sa dragon. At lumaban din ang dragon at ang kanyang mga anghel. 8 Ngunit natalo ang dragon at ang kanyang mga anghel, at pinalayas sila mula sa langit. 9 Kaya itinaboy ang malaking dragon – ang ahas noong unang panahon na tinatawag na diyablo o Satanas na nanlilinlang sa mga tao sa buong mundo. Itinapon siya sa lupa kasama ang kanyang mga anghel.
10 Pagkatapos, narinig ko ang malakas na tinig mula sa langit na nagsasabi, “Dumating na ang pagliligtas ng Dios sa mga tao. Ipinapakita na niya ang kanyang kapangyarihan bilang hari at ang awtoridad ni Cristo na kanyang pinili. Sapagkat pinalayas na mula sa langit ang umaakusa sa ating mga kapatid sa harap ng Dios araw at gabi. 11 Ngunit natalo na siya ng ating mga kapatid sa pamamagitan ng dugo ng Tupa at ng katotohanang ipinangangaral nila. Hindi sila takot na ialay ang kanilang buhay alang-alang sa kanilang pananampalataya. 12 Kaya magalak kayo, kayong nakatira sa kalangitan. Pero nakakaawa kayong mga nakatira sa lupa at dagat dahil itinapon na riyan sa inyo si Satanas. Galit na galit siya dahil alam niyang kakaunti na lang ang natitirang panahon para sa kanya.”
13 Nang makita ng dragon na itinapon na siya sa lupa, tinugis niya ang babaeng nanganak ng sanggol na lalaki. 14 Ngunit binigyan ang babae ng dalawang pakpak na tulad sa malaking agila upang makalipad sa isang lugar sa ilang na inihanda para sa kanya. Doon siya aalagaan sa loob ng tatloʼt kalahating taon, malayo at ligtas sa dragon. 15 Dahil dito, nagbuga ang dragon ng maraming tubig, parang baha, upang tangayin ang babae. 16 Pero tinulungan ng lupa ang babae. Bumitak ito nang malalaki at hinigop ang tubig na galing sa bibig ng dragon. 17 Lalo pang nagalit ang dragon kaya nilusob niya ang iba pang mga anak ng babae. Itoʼy walang iba kundi ang mga taong sumusunod sa mga utos ng Dios at sa mga katotohanang itinuro ni Jesus. 18 At tumayo ang dragon sa tabi ng dagat.

The Woman, the Child, and the Dragon
12 Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and on her head a garland of twelve stars. 2 Then being with child, she cried out (A)in labor and in pain to give birth.
3 And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, (B)a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads. 4 (C)His tail drew a third (D)of the stars of heaven (E)and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood (F)before the woman who was ready to give birth, (G)to devour her Child as soon as it was born. 5 She bore a male Child (H)who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron. And her Child was (I)caught up to God and His throne. 6 Then (J)the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that they should feed her there (K)one thousand two hundred and sixty days.
Satan Thrown Out of Heaven
7 And war broke out in heaven: (L)Michael and his angels fought (M)with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, 8 but they [a]did not prevail, nor was a place found for [b]them in heaven any longer. 9 So (N)the great dragon was cast out, (O)that serpent of old, called the Devil and Satan, (P)who deceives the whole world; (Q)he was cast to the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
10 Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, (R)“Now salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ have come, for the accuser of our brethren, (S)who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. 11 And (T)they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, (U)and they did not love their lives to the death. 12 Therefore (V)rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! (W)Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and the sea! For the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, (X)because he knows that he has a short time.”
The Woman Persecuted
13 Now when the dragon saw that he had been cast to the earth, he persecuted (Y)the woman who gave birth to the male Child. 14 (Z)But the woman was given two wings of a great eagle, (AA)that she might fly (AB)into the wilderness to her place, where she is nourished (AC)for a time and times and half a time, from the presence of the serpent. 15 So the serpent (AD)spewed water out of his mouth like a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away by the flood. 16 But the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the flood which the dragon had spewed out of his mouth. 17 And the dragon was enraged with the woman, and he went to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep the commandments of God and have the testimony of Jesus [c]Christ.
