    1A great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet, and a crown of twelve stars on her head.

    2She was pregnant and cried out in labor, in the agony of giving birth.

    3Then another sign appeared in heaven: a large fiery red dragon with seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns on its heads.

    4Its tail swept a third of the stars from the sky and threw them to the earth. The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that it might devour her child the moment he was born.

    6The woman fled into the wilderness, where she had a place prepared by God to be taken care of for 1,260 days.

    7Then there was a war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back.

    8But they were not strong enough, and there was no longer a place for them in heaven.

    9The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

    10Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say: 'Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of His Messiah. For the accuser of our siblings, who accuses them before our God day and night, has been hurled down.'

    11They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony; they did not love their lives so much as to shrink from death.

    12Therefore rejoice, you heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has come down to you! He is filled with fury, because he knows that his time is short.

    16But the earth helped the woman by opening its mouth and swallowing the river that the dragon had spewed out of his mouth.

    17Then the dragon became furious with the woman and went off to wage war against the rest of her offspring—those who keep God’s commands and hold fast their testimony about Jesus.

    1Then I saw a beast rising out of the sea. It had seven heads and ten horns, and on its horns were ten crowns, and on its heads were names of blasphemy.

    2The beast I saw was like a leopard, its feet were like those of a bear, and its mouth was like a lion's mouth. The dragon gave the beast his power, his throne, and great authority.

    3One of the beast's heads appeared to have been fatally wounded, but its mortal wound was healed. The whole earth marveled and followed the beast.

    4They worshiped the dragon because he had given authority to the beast, and they worshiped the beast, saying, "Who is like the beast? Who can wage war against it?"

    5The beast was given a mouth to speak arrogant words and blasphemies, and it was given authority to act for forty-two months.

    6It opened its mouth to blaspheme against God, to slander His name, His dwelling, and those who dwell in heaven.

    7It was also given power to wage war against the saints and to conquer them. It was given authority over every tribe, people, language, and nation.
