Revelation 12
1 Then something very unusual appeared in the sky. It was a woman, whose [appearance and] clothing were [MET] as bright as the sun. The moon was under her feet. On her head was a crown [that was made] of twelve stars.
Nakita ang usa ka dakong ilhanan sa langit: usa ka babaye nga sinul-oban ug adlaw, ug ang bulan ubos sa iyang tiilan; ug anaa sa iyang ulo ang usa ka korona sa napulog duha ka mga bituon.
2 She was pregnant. Then, as she was about to give birth, she cried out because she was suffering pain.
Mabdos siya ug nagsinggit sa kasakit—sa kasakit sa pagpanganak.
3 Something else very unusual appeared in the sky. It was a huge red dragon. It had seven heads and ten horns. On each of its heads was a royal crown.
Ug nakita ang laing ilhanan sa langit: Tan-awa! Adunay usa ka dakong pulang dragon nga adunay pito ka mga ulo ug napulo ka mga sungay, ug adunay pito ka korona sa iyang mga ulo.
4 The dragon’s tail dragged a third of the stars from the sky and threw them to the earth. The dragon set himself in front of the woman who was about to give birth, in order that he might eat her child as soon as it was born.
Ang iyang ikog mikahig palayo sa ikatulo nga kabituonan sa langit ug gitambog sila paubos sa kalibotan. Ang dragon mitindog sa atubangan sa babaye nga hapit nang manganak, aron nga sa dihang manganak na siya, iyang lamyon ang iyang anak.
5 The woman gave birth to a son, who [is destined] to rule all the nations with [complete authority as if he was using] [MET] an iron rod [MET]. [God] snatched away her child and took him to [rule from] his throne.
Siya nanganak sa usa ka anak nga lalaki, usa ka lalaking bata, nga mao ang magmando sa tanang kanasoran uban ang puthaw nga sungkod. Ang iyang anak gisakmit ngadto sa Dios ug sa iyang trono,
6 The woman fled to a desert. She has a place there that God has prepared for her, in order that [the angels] may take care of her for 1,260 days.
ug mikalagiw ang babaye ngadto sa kamingawan, kung asa ang Dios nag-andam ug dapit alang kaniya, aron nga pagaatimanon siya sulod sa 1, 260 ka mga adlaw.
7 [In the vision I saw that] there was a battle in heaven. Michael and the angels that he [commanded] fought against the dragon. The dragon and his angels fought back [against Michael and his angels].
Karon adunay gubat sa langit. Si Michael ug ang iyang mga anghel nakiggubat batok sa dragon; ug ang dragon ug ang iyang mga anghel nakiggubat ug balik.
8 But the dragon did not win the battle, so [God] did not allow the dragon and his angels to stay in heaven any longer.
Apan dili igo ang kusog sa dragon aron modaog. Busa wala nay dapit sa langit alang kaniya ug sa iyang mga anghel.
9 The huge dragon was thrown {[Michael and his angels] threw the huge dragon} out [of heaven]. The dragon is the ancient serpent, [the one] who is called the Devil and Satan. He is the one who deceives [people all over] the earth. He was thrown down to the earth, along with all his angels.
Ang dakong dragon—nga karaan nga serpente nga gitawag ug yawa o Satanas nga mao ang naglimbong sa tibuok kalibotan—nga gilabay paubos ngadto sa kalibotan, ug ang iyang mga anghel gilabay paubos uban kaniya.
10 Then I heard [someone] in heaven shout loudly, saying, Now our God has saved his people by his power, and he rules everyone! Now the Messiah, the one who is the supreme ruler whom God appointed, has authority to rule all people, because our God has thrown out of heaven the one who accuses our fellow believers! The dragon is the one who accuses them day and night before our God, saying that they have sinned and that God ought to punish them.
Unya akong nadungog ang usa ka makusog nga tingog sa langit: “Karon miabot na ang kaluwasan, ang gahom—ug ang gingharian sa atong Dios, ug ang katungod sa iyang Cristo. Alang sa tigpasangil sa atong mga kaigsoonan nga gilabay paubos—ang usa nga mipasangil kanila sa atubangan sa atong Dios adlaw ug gabii.
11 Our fellow believers overcame the dragon because they never stopped trusting (OR, never stopped telling people about) Jesus, and because they trusted in what Jesus, the one who is like a lamb, accomplished when his blood flowed when he died. Even though those believers wanted to live, they were willing to let people kill them for speaking the truth about him.
Ilang nabuntog siya pinaagi sa dugo sa nating karnero ug pinaagi sa pulong sa ilang pagpamatuod, kay wala nila higugmaa pag-ayo ang ilang kinabuhi, bisan pa sa kamatayon.
12 So, all you angels living [MTY] in heaven, rejoice! But terrible things will happen to you ungodly people who [MTY] live on the earth and on the ocean, because the devil has come down to you! He is very angry because he knows that he has only a short time during which he can harm people.
Busa, paglipay, kamong mga langit, ug kamong tanan nga nagpuyo kanila. Apan alaot ang kalibotan ug kadagatan tungod kay ang yawa anaa sa ubos ninyo. Siya napuno uban ang makalilisang nga kasuko, tungod kay siya nasayod nga diyutay na lamang ang iyang panahon.
13 When the dragon realized that he had been thrown {that [the angels] had thrown him} down to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to a son.
Sa dihang nakaamgo ang dragon nga gitambog siya sa kalibotan, iyang gigukod ang babaye nga nagpakatawo sa batang lalaki.
14 But the woman was given two wings like the wings of a very large eagle, in order that she might fly to a desolate place. That is a place [that God] has prepared for her. There she was taken care of {[God’s angels] took care of her} for three and a half years. The serpent, [that is, the dragon], was not able to reach her there.
Apan ang babaye gihatagan ug duha ka mga pako sa dakong agila, aron siya makalupad ngadto sa dapit nga giandam alang kaniya nga anaa sa kamingawan, ang dapit kung asa siya pagaatimanon, alang sa usa ka panahon, mga panahon, ug katunga sa panahon—nga dili maabot sa serpente.
15 The serpent spewed water like a river from his mouth in the direction of the woman, in order that the water might sweep her away.
Ang serpente mibugwak ug tubig sa iyang baba sama sa usa ka suba, aron siya makahimo ug usa ka baha aron ipaanod siya palayo.
16 But the ground helped the woman [by] opening up and swallowing the river that the dragon spewed out from his mouth!
Apan ang kalibotan mitabang sa babaye. kini miabli sa iyang baba ug milamoy sa suba nga gibugwak sa dragon sa iyang baba.
17 Then the dragon was very angry with the woman, so he went away to fight against [the people who are like] the rest of her descendants. They are the people who obey God’s commandments and who tell other people about Jesus (OR, hold fast to what Jesus taught them).
Unya ang dragon napungot sa babaye ug miadto aron sa pagpakiggubat uban ang nahibilin niyang mga kaliwatan—kadtong nagtuman sa mga sugo sa Dios ug nagkupot sa pagpamatuod mahitungod kang Jesus.
