## đź“ś Scripture Text (NET)
(The NET Bible: New English Translation. Biblical Studies Press, 2005)
#### The Woman, the Child, and the Dragon
[[#Verse 01.]] Then a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and with the moon under her feet, and on her head was a crown of twelve stars.
[[#Verse 02.]] She was pregnant and was screaming in labor pains, struggling to give birth.
[[#Verse 03.]] Then another sign appeared in heaven: a huge red dragon that had seven heads and ten horns, and on its heads were seven diadem crowns.Â
[[#Verse 04.]] Now the dragon’s tail swept away a third of the stars in heaven and hurled them to the earth. Then 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.Â
[[#Verse 05.]] So the woman gave birth to a son, a male child, who is going _to rule_ _over all the nations_ _with_ _an iron rod_. Her child was suddenly caught up to God and to his throne,Â
[[#Verse 06.]] and she fled into the wilderness where a place had been prepared for her by God, so she could be taken care of for 1,260 days.
### War in Heaven
[[#Verse 07.]] Then war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back.Â
[[#Verse 08.]] But the dragon was not strong enough to prevail, so there was no longer any place left in heaven for him and his angels.Â
[[#Verse 09.]] So that huge dragon—the ancient serpent, the one called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world—was thrown down to the earth, and his angels along with him.Â
[[#Verse 10.]] Then I heard a loud voice in heaven saying,
“The salvation and the power
and the kingdom of our God,
and the ruling authority of his Christ, have now come,
because the accuser of our brothers and sisters,
the one who accuses them day and night before our God,
has been thrown down.
[[#Verse 11.]] But they overcame him
by the blood of the Lamb
and by the word of their testimony,
and they did not love their lives so much that they were afraid to die.
[[#Verse 12.]]Â Therefore you heavens rejoice, and all who reside in them!
But woe to the earth and the sea
because the devil has come down to you!
He is filled with terrible anger,
for he knows that he only has a little time!”
[[#Verse 13.]] Now when the dragon realized that he had been thrown down to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to the male child.Â
[[#Verse 14.]] But the woman was given the two wings of a giant eagle so that she could fly out into the wilderness, to the place God prepared for her, where she is taken care of—away from the presence of the serpent—for a time, times, and half a time.Â
[[#Verse 15.]] Then the serpent spouted water like a river out of his mouth after the woman in an attempt to sweep her away by a flood,Â
[[#Verse 16.]] but the earth came to her rescue; the ground opened up and swallowed the river that the dragon had spewed from his mouth.Â
[[#Verse 17.]] So the dragon became enraged at the woman and went away to make war on the rest of her children, those who keepGod’s commandments and hold to the testimony about Jesus.Â
[[#Verse 18.]] And the dragon stood on the sand of the seashore.
