12:1 And
a
great
sign
appeared
in
heaven:
a
woman
clothed
with
the
sun,
with
the
moon
under
her
feet,
and
on
her
head
a
crown
of
twelve
stars.
12:2 She
was
pregnant
and
was
crying
out
in
birth
pains
and
the
agony
of
giving
birth.
12:3 And
another
sign
appeared
in
heaven:
behold,
a
great
red
dragon,
with
seven
heads
and
ten
horns,
and
on
his
heads
seven
diadems.
12:4 His
tail
swept
down
a
third
of
the
stars
of
heaven
and
cast
them
to
the
earth.
And
the
dragon
stood
before
the
woman
who
was
about
to
give
birth,
so
that
when
she
bore
her
child
he
might
devour
it.
12:5 She
gave
birth
to
a
male
child,
one
who
is
to
rule
all
the
nations
with
a
rod
of
iron,
but
her
child
was
caught
up
to
God
and
to
his
throne,
12:6 and
the
woman
fled
into
the
wilderness,
where
she
has
a
place
prepared
by
God,
in
which
she
is
to
be
nourished
for
1,260
days.
12:7 Now
war
arose
in
heaven,
Michael
and
his
angels
fighting
against
the
dragon.
And
the
dragon
and
his
angels
fought
back,
12:8 but
he
was
defeated,
and
there
was
no
longer
any
place
for
them
in
heaven.
12:9 And
the
great
dragon
was
thrown
down,
that
ancient
serpent,
who
is
called
the
devil
and
Satan,
the
deceiver
of
the
whole
world--he
was
thrown
down
to
the
earth,
and
his
angels
were
thrown
down
with
him.
12:10 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,
for
the
accuser
of
our
brothers
has
been
thrown
down,
who
accuses
them
day
and
night
before
our
God.
12:11 And
they
have
conquered
him
by
the
blood
of
the
Lamb
and
by
the
word
of
their
testimony,
for
they
loved
not
their
lives
even
unto
death.
12:12 Therefore,
rejoice,
O
heavens
and
you
who
dwell
in
them!
But
woe
to
you,
O
earth
and
sea,
for
the
devil
has
come
down
to
you
in
great
wrath,
because
he
knows
that
his
time
is
short!"
12:13 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.
12:14 But
the
woman
was
given
the
two
wings
of
the
great
eagle
so
that
she
might
fly
from
the
serpent
into
the
wilderness,
to
the
place
where
she
is
to
be
nourished
for
a
time,
and
times,
and
half
a
time.
12:15 The
serpent
poured
water
like
a
river
out
of
his
mouth
after
the
woman,
to
sweep
her
away
with
a
flood.
12:16 But
the
earth
came
to
the
help
of
the
woman,
and
the
earth
opened
its
mouth
and
swallowed
the
river
that
the
dragon
had
poured
from
his
mouth.
12:17 Then
the
dragon
became
furious
with
the
woman
and
went
off
to
make
war
on
the
rest
of
her
offspring,
on
those
who
keep
the
commandments
of
God
and
hold
to
the
testimony
of
Jesus.
And
he
stood
on
the
sand
of
the
sea.
