    1And 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.

    2And she was with child, and she cried out in labor and in pain to give birth.

    3And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and seven crowns on his heads.

    4His tail swept away 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 he might devour her child as soon as it was born.

    5And she gave birth to a male child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron. And her child was caught up to God and to His throne.

    6And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she had a place prepared by God, so that she might be nourished there for one thousand two hundred sixty days.

    7And there was a war in heaven, Michael and his angels waging war with the dragon. The dragon and his angels waged war,

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

    9And the great dragon was thrown down, the serpent of old 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.

    10And 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 brethren has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night."

    11And they overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives even to death.

    12Therefore rejoice, you heavens and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has only a short time.

    13And when the dragon saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child.

    14But the two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, so that she could fly into the wilderness to her place, where she was nourished for a time, times, and half a time, away from the presence of the serpent.

    15And the serpent poured water like a river out of his mouth after the woman, so that he might cause her to be swept away with the flood.

    16But the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and drank up the river which the dragon poured out of his mouth.

    1Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and talked with me, saying to me, Come here; I will show you the judgment of the great prostitute who sits on many waters:

    2With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the inhabitants of the earth were made drunk with the wine of her fornication.

    3So he carried me away in the Spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet-colored beast, full of names of blasphemy, having seven heads and ten horns.

    4And the woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and the filthiness of her fornication:

    5And on her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

    6And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus; and when I saw her, I marveled with great wonder.

    7And the angel said to me, Why did you marvel? I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and ten horns.

    8The beast that you saw was, and is not, and shall ascend out of the bottomless pit and go to destruction: and those who dwell on the earth shall marvel, whose names were not written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they see the beast that was, and is not, and yet is.

    17For God has put it into their hearts to fulfill his purpose, to be of one mind, and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God are fulfilled.
