^12:1 And a great sign was seen in heaven, a woman who has been dressed with the sun and the moon underneath her feet and upon her head a crown of twelve stars; ^12:2 and she was holding a child in her womb {i.e., pregnant}, and was crying, travailing and tormented to bear forth. ^12:3 And another sign was seen in heaven and behold, a great fiery red dragon, who has seven heads and ten horns and seven diadems upon his heads. ^12:4 And his tail drags the third of the stars of heaven and he cast them to the earth and the dragon is standing in the sight of the woman who is about to bear, in-order-that whenever she should bear it, he may devour her child. ^12:5 And she borne a son, a male child, who is about to shepherd all the nations with^* an iron rod and her child was seized up to God and to his throne. ^12:6 And the woman fled into the wilderness where she has there a place which has been prepared by God in-order-that they may nourish her there one thousand two hundred and sixty days.

      ^12:7 And a war happened in heaven. Michael and his messengers went to make war with the dragon, and the dragon and his messengers made war. ^12:8 And it did not prevail, neither was a place found for him anymore in heaven. ^12:9 And the great dragon was cast down, the ancient serpent, who is called the devil and the Adversary, the one misleading the whole inhabited-earth; he was cast down to the earth and his messengers were cast 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 came^*, because the accuser of our brethren was cast down, who accuses them in the sight of our God day and night. ^12:11 And they themselves overcame him because of the blood of the Lamb and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love^* their life even till death. ^12:12 Because of this, be^° joyous heavens and the ones are residing in them! Woe to the earth and to the sea, because the devil went-down to you^°, having great fury, knowing that he has a small time.

      ^12:13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who borne the male child. ^12:14 And the two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman in-order-that she may fly into the wilderness to her place, ^*that she may be nourished there for a time and times and half a time from the face of the serpent. {Rev 11:3, 11:9, 11:11, 12:6, 13:5} ^12:15 And the serpent cast water like a river out-of his mouth after the woman in-order-that he might make^* the river whisk her away. ^12:16 And the earth helped the woman and the earth opened her mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon cast out-of his mouth. ^12:17 And the dragon was made angry against the woman and went away to make^* war with the rest of her seed, the ones keeping the commandments of God and holding to the testimony of Jesus.
