Revelation 12:11-17
New American Standard Bible
11 And they (A)overcame him because of (B)the blood of the Lamb and because of (C)the word of their testimony, and they (D)did not love their life even [a]when faced with death. 12 For this reason, (E)rejoice, you heavens and (F)you who dwell in them. (G)Woe to the earth and the sea, because (H)the devil has come down to you with great wrath, knowing that he has only (I)a short time.”
13 And when the (J)dragon saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted (K)the woman who gave birth to the male Child. 14 But the (L)two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, so that she could fly (M)into the wilderness to her place, where she *was nourished for (N)a time, times, and half a time, away from the presence of the serpent. 15 And the (O)serpent hurled water like a river out of his mouth after the woman, so that he might cause her to be swept away with the flood. 16 [b]But the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and drank up the river which the dragon had hurled out of his mouth. 17 So the dragon was enraged with the woman, and went off to (P)make war with the rest of her [c](Q)children, who (R)keep the commandments of God and (S)hold to the testimony of Jesus.
