A great sign was seen in heaven: a woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars.
2 Acun cun m’yai lü na hmi law hlüki. Na hmi hlü naw mhlei se ngko lü kyapki.
She was with child. She cried out in pain, laboring to give birth.
3 Kyühkhyawk phyaki akce khana ngdang law se ka hmuh. Mnaka sen angbaünu khyüh lu na lü xa ki naki, bawilukhum khyüh ngbungki ngdang lawki.
Another sign was seen in heaven. Behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven crowns.
4 A ngmei am khankhawa ka aisi hmün kthum üng hmün mat kaih lü khawmdeka khana a tawn. Na hmi law se na mjaw khaia ca law hlükia nghnuminu ngäng lü a maa ngdüiki.
His tail drew one third of the stars of the sky, and threw them to the earth. The dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might devour her child.
5 Acunüng nghnuminu cun khyangmjü he naküt mthicung am jah uk khaia kpamica mata ca lawki. Acunsepi a capa cun angxita yutei u lü Pamhnam la a bawingawhnaka cehpüia kyaki.
She gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron. Her child was caught up to God and to his throne.
6 Nghnuminu cun Pamhnam naw a pyang peta khaw khyawngkhawa mhmüp 1,260 ami mcahnak vaia cenki.
The woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that there they may nourish her one thousand two hundred sixty days.
7 Acunüng khankhawa ngtuknak awm lawki. Mihkhelah la a ngsä he naw mnaka ami tuk. Mnaka la a ngsä he naw pi ami tuk be.
There was war in the sky. Michael and his angels made war on the dragon. The dragon and his angels made war.
8 Acunsepi mnaka sung se a ngsä he mah mah am khankhawa asängca pi awm u lü am yah ti u.
They did not prevail. No place was found for them any more in heaven.
9 Mnaka ngbaünu, Khawyai ngming na lü Khawyam pi ngming nakia kphyu xünu, khawmdek avan mhleimhlaki cun khawmdek khana ami juk khyak law; a ngsä he pi ami jah khyak law.
The great dragon was thrown down, the old serpent, he who is called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was thrown down to the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
10 Acunüng khankhawa angsang yea, “Atuh pamhnama küikyanak pha law ve! Pamhnam naw a johit Sangpuxanga kba mdan päng ve! A Mesijah naw a khyaihbahnak mdan päng ve! Mi Pamhnama maa ngdüi lü jumeiki he amhmüp amthan jah mkateiki cun khankhaw üngka naw ami khyak law päng ni.
I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, “Now the salvation, the power, and the Kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ has come; for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night.
11 Toca a thisen la ami sanga ngthungtak am ani cun mi bena he naw näng ve u. Ami xünnak pe u lü ami thih vai pi am cäi na u.
They overcame him because of the Lamb’s blood, and because of the word of their testimony. They did not love their life, even to death.
12 Acunakyase khankhaw he la a khana awmki he aw jekyai ua! Acunsepi ihlawka khawmdek la mliktuia phäh kyühkseki ni! Khawyai naw a kcün aktawica däng taki ti ksing lü mlungsetnak am nami veia kyum law päng ve,” ami ti ka ngjak.
Therefore rejoice, heavens, and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and to the sea, because the devil has gone down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has but a short time.”
13 Mnaka naw khawmdek üng khyak law pänga kyaki ti ksing law lü kpamica canakia nghnuminu cun a mkhuimkha vaia a ktäm law.
When the dragon saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child.
14 Khawkhyawng khaw a awmnak vaia jawng thei khaia nghnuminu üng nghmunu angbaünua ngphya nghngih ami pet. Acuia mnaka naw am tu thei se kum kthum la amte mcah khai he.
Two wings of the great eagle were given to the woman, that she might fly into the wilderness to her place, so that she might be nourished for a time, times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
15 Acunüng mnaka naw nghnuminu athuknaka ceh khaia tuilawngnu, a mka üngka naw a mhluh law.
The serpent spewed water out of his mouth after the woman like a river, that he might cause her to be carried away by the stream.
16 Acunsepi khawmdek naw nghnuminu cun yungki. Mnaka naw a mka üngka a mhluh lawa tui cun khawmdek naw a mka hala lü a mjaw.
The earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river which the dragon spewed out of his mouth.
17 Acunüng mnaka naw nghnuminu cun thüisei law na lü kpawihkia nghnuminua mjükphyüi, Pamhnama ngthupet läk u lü Jesuha mdan ngthungtak läklamki he la sitihkie jah ngtukpüi khaia ktawihki.
The dragon grew angry with the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep God’s commandments and hold Jesus’ testimony.
