1 A nd a great sign was seen in the heaven, a woman arrayed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars,

And there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

2 a nd being with child she doth cry out, travailing and pained to bring forth.

and she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered.

3 A nd there was seen another sign in the heaven, and, lo, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his head seven diadems,

And there appeared another wonder in heaven; and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns upon his heads.

4 a nd his tail doth draw the third of the stars of the heaven, and he did cast them to the earth; and the dragon did stand before the woman who is about to bring forth, that when she may bring forth, her child he may devour;

And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman which was ready to be delivered, for to devour her child as soon as it was born.

5 a nd she brought forth a male child, who is about to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, and caught away was her child unto God and His throne,

And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne.

6 a nd the woman did flee to the wilderness, where she hath a place made ready from God, that there they may nourish her -- days a thousand, two hundred, sixty.

And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she hath a place prepared of God, that they should feed her there a thousand two hundred and threescore days.

7 A nd there came war in the heaven; Michael and his messengers did war against the dragon, and the dragon did war, and his messengers,

And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,

8 a nd they did not prevail, nor was their place found any more in the heaven;

and prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.

9 a nd the great dragon was cast forth -- the old serpent, who is called `Devil,' and `the Adversary,' who is leading astray the whole world -- he was cast forth to the earth, and his messengers were cast forth with him.

And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.

10 A nd I heard a great voice saying in the heaven, `Now did come the salvation, and the power, and the reign, of our God, and the authority of His Christ, because cast down was the accuser of our brethren, who is accusing them before our God day and night;

And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.

11 a nd they did overcome him because of the blood of the Lamb, and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life -- unto death;

And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

12 b ecause of this be glad, ye heavens, and those in them who do tabernacle; wo to those inhabiting the land and the sea, because the Devil did go down unto you, having great wrath, having known that he hath little time.'

Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! for the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time.

13 A nd when the dragon saw that he was cast forth to the earth, he pursued the woman who did bring forth the male,

And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child.

14 a nd there were given to the woman two wings of the great eagle, that she may fly to the wilderness, to her place, where she is nourished a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent;

And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.

15 a nd the serpent did cast forth after the woman, out of his mouth, water as a river, that he may cause her to be carried away by the river,

And the serpent cast out of his mouth water as a flood after the woman, that he might cause her to be carried away of the flood.

16 a nd the land did help the woman, and the land did open its mouth and did swallow up the river, that the dragon did cast forth out of his mouth;

And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the flood which the dragon cast out of his mouth.

17 a nd the dragon was angry against the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her seed, those keeping the commands of God, and having the testimony of Jesus Christ.

And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
