Revelation 12:1-17
Lexham English Bible
The Woman and Her Son Versus the Dragon
12 And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun and with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars, 2 and who was pregnant[a] and was crying out because she[b] was having birth pains, and was in torment to give birth. 3 And another sign appeared in heaven, and behold, a great fiery red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads were seven royal headbands.[c] 4 And his tail swept away a third of the stars from heaven and threw them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, in order that whenever she gave birth to her child he could devour it. 5 And she gave birth to a son, a male child, who is going to shepherd all the nations with an iron rod,[d] and her child was snatched away to God and to his throne. 6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she had a place prepared there by God, so that they could feed her there for one thousand two hundred sixty days.
Satan Thrown Down from Heaven to Earth
7 And there was war in heaven; Michael and his angels fought against[e] the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back[f]. 8 And they did not prevail, nor was a place found for them any longer in heaven. 9 And the great dragon was thrown down, the ancient serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world. He was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
10 And I heard a loud voice in heaven saying,
“Now the salvation and the power
and the kingdom of our God
and the authority of his Christ have come,
because the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down,
the one who accuses them before our God day and night.
11 And they conquered him by the blood of the Lamb
and by the word of their testimony,
and they did not love their lives until death.
12 Because of this, rejoice, you heavens,
and those who live in them!
Woe to the earth and to the sea,
because the devil has come down to you,
having great anger,
because he[g] knows that he has little time!”
13 And when the dragon saw that he had been thrown down to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to the male child. 14 And the two wings of a great eagle were given to the woman, in order that she could fly into the wilderness, to her place where she is fed there for a time, and times, and half a time, from the presence of the serpent. 15 And from his mouth the serpent spouted water like a river after the woman, in order that he could make her swept away by a river. 16 And the earth came to the aid of the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river that the dragon had spouted out of his mouth. 17 And the dragon was angry at the woman, and went away to fight against[h] the rest of her children, those who keep the commandments of God and who hold to the testimony about Jesus.

12 Then kai a great megas sign sēmeion appeared horaō in en · ho heaven ouranos: a woman gynē clothed with periballō the ho sun hēlios, · kai with the ho moon selēnē under hypokatō · ho her autos feet pous, and kai on epi · ho her autos head kephalē was a crown stephanos of twelve dōdeka stars astēr. 2 · kai She was echō pregnant en gastēr and kai was crying out krazō in labor pains ōdinō as kai she struggled basanizō to give birth tiktō. 3 Then kai another allos sign sēmeion appeared horaō in en · ho heaven ouranos: · kai a huge megas red pyrros dragon drakōn that had echō seven hepta heads kephalē and kai ten deka horns keras, and kai on epi · ho its autos heads kephalē were seven hepta crowns diadēma. 4 · kai · ho His autos tail oura swept away syrō a ho third tritos of the ho stars astēr of ho heaven ouranos and kai hurled ballō them autos to eis the ho earth gē. And kai the ho dragon drakōn stood histēmi before enōpion the ho woman gynē who ho was about mellō to give birth tiktō, so that hina when hotan she bore tiktō · ho her autos child teknon he might devour katesthiō it. 5 So kai the woman gave birth tiktō to a son hyios, a male child arsēn, who hos is going mellō to rule poimainō all pas the ho nations ethnos with en an iron sidērous rod rhabdos; but kai her autos child teknon was taken up harpazō · ho to pros · ho God theos and kai to pros · ho his autos throne thronos. 6 Then kai the ho woman gynē fled pheugō into eis the ho wilderness erēmos where hopou a place topos had been prepared hetoimazō for her by apo · ho God theos, so hina they can take care of trephō her autos there ekei for one thousand chilioi two hundred diakosioi and sixty hexēkonta days hēmera.
7 Then kai war polemos broke out ginomai in en · ho heaven ouranos, · ho Michael Michaēl and kai · ho his autos angels angelos fought polemeō against meta the ho dragon drakōn. · kai The ho dragon drakōn and kai his autos angels angelos fought back polemeō, · ho 8 but kai he was not ou strong enough ischuō, and no oude longer eti was a place topos found heuriskō for them autos in en · ho heaven ouranos. 9 And kai the ho great megas dragon drakōn was thrown down ballō, · ho that ho ancient archaios serpent ophis, · ho who ho is called kaleō the devil diabolos and kai · ho Satan Satanas, the ho deceiver planaō of the ho whole holos world oikoumenē— he was thrown down ballō to eis the ho earth gē, and kai · ho his autos angels angelos were thrown down ballō with meta him autos. 10 Then kai I heard akouō a loud megas voice phōnē in en · ho heaven ouranos saying legō, “ Just now arti have come ginomai the ho salvation sōtēria and kai the ho power dynamis and kai the ho kingdom basileia of ho our hēmeis God theos and kai the ho authority exousia of ho his autos Christ Christos, because hoti the ho accuser katēgōr of ho our hēmeis brothers adelphos has been thrown down ballō, the ho one who accuses katēgoreō them autos day hēmera and kai night nyx before enōpion · ho our hēmeis God theos. 11 · kai They autos overcame nikaō him autos by dia the ho blood haima of the ho Lamb arnion and kai by dia the ho word logos of ho their autos testimony martyria, and kai they did not ou love agapaō · ho their autos lives psychē even achri to death thanatos. 12 Therefore dia houtos, rejoice euphrainō, O ho heavens ouranos and kai all who ho dwell skēnoō in en them autos!
