Revelation 12:9-11
New International Version
Revelation 12:9-11
New International Version
9 The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent(A) called the devil,(B) or Satan,(C) who leads the whole world astray.(D) He was hurled to the earth,(E) and his angels with him.
10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven(F) say:
“Now have come the salvation(G) and the power
and the kingdom of our God,
and the authority of his Messiah.
For the accuser of our brothers and sisters,(H)
who accuses them before our God day and night,
has been hurled down.
11 They triumphed over(I) him
by the blood of the Lamb(J)
and by the word of their testimony;(K)
they did not love their lives so much
as to shrink from death.(L)

Revelation 12:9-11
Amplified Bible
9 And the great dragon was thrown down, the age-old serpent who is called the [a]devil and Satan, he who continually deceives and seduces the entire inhabited world; he was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.(A) 10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying,
“Now the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom (dominion, reign) of our God, and the authority of His Christ have come; for the [b]accuser of our [believing] brothers and sisters has been thrown down [at last], he who accuses them and keeps bringing charges [of sinful behavior] against them before our God day and night.(B) 11 And they overcame and conquered him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, for they did not love their life and renounce their faith even when faced with death.(C)

- Revelation 12:9 The Greek for devil is diabolos, which is actually a translation of Satan, a Hebrew word meaning “adversary” or “accuser.” The Greek word additionally carries with it the concept of “slanderer.” See note v 10.
- Revelation 12:10 This is the activity of Satan from which he has earned his name (see note v 9). The activity is most clearly seen in Job 1-2 and in Zech 3.
