Revelation 12
1 And a great marvel was seen in Heaven-- a woman who was robed with the sun and had the moon under her feet, and had also a wreath of stars round her head, was with child,
I ukázal se div veliký na nebi: Žena oděná sluncem, pod jejímiž nohama byl měsíc a na jejíž hlavě byla koruna dvanácti hvězd.
2 and she was crying out in the pains and agony of childbirth.
A jsuci těhotná, křičela, pracujici ku porodu a trápěci se, aby porodila.
3 And another marvel was seen in Heaven--a great fiery-red Dragon, with seven heads and ten horns; and on his heads were seven kingly crowns.
I vidín jest jiný div na nebi. Nebo aj, drak veliký ryšavý ukázal se, maje hlav sedm a rohů deset, a na těch hlavách svých sedm korun.
4 His tail was drawing after it a third part of the stars of Heaven, and it dashed them to the ground. And in front of the woman who was about to become a mother, the Dragon was standing in order to devour the child as soon as it was born.
Jehož ocas strhl třetinu hvězd s nebe, a svrhl je na zem. Ten pak drak stál před ženou, kteráž měla poroditi, aby hned, jakž by porodila, syna jejího sežral.
5 She gave birth to a son--a male child, destined before long to rule all nations with an iron scepter. But her child was caught up to God and His throne,
I porodila syna pacholíka, kterýž měl spravovati všecky národy prutem železným. I vytržen jest syn její k Bohu a k trůnu jeho.
6 and the woman fled into the Desert, there to be cared for, for 1,260 days, in a place which God had prepared for her.
A žena utekla na poušť, kdež měla místo od Boha připravené, aby ji tam živili za dnů tisíc dvě stě a šedesát.
7 And war broke out in Heaven, Michael and his angels engaging in battle with the Dragon.
I stal se boj na nebi: Michal a andělé jeho bojovali s drakem, a drak bojoval i andělé jeho.
8 The Dragon fought and so did his angels; but they were defeated, and there was no longer any room found for them in Heaven.
Ale nic neobdrželi, aniž jest nalezeno více místo jejich na nebi.
9 The great Dragon, the ancient serpent, he who is called 'the Devil' and 'the Adversary' and leads the whole earth astray, was hurled down: he was hurled down to the earth, and his angels were hurled down with him.
I svržen jest drak ten veliký, had starý, jenž slove ďábel a satanáš, kterýž svodí všecken okršlek světa; svržen jest, pravím, na zem, i andělé jeho s ním svrženi jsou.
10 Then I heard a loud voice speaking in Heaven. It said, "The salvation and the power and the Kingdom of our God have now come, and the sovereignty of His Christ; for the accuser of our brethren has been hurled down--he who, day after day and night after night, was wont to accuse them in the presence of God.
A uslyšel jsem hlas veliký, řkoucí na nebi: Nyní stalo se spasení, a moc, i království Boha našeho, a moc Krista jeho; nebo svržen jest žalobník bratří našich, kterýž žaloval na ně před obličejem Boha našeho dnem i nocí.
11 But they have gained the victory over him because of the blood of the Lamb and of the testimony which they have borne, and because they held their lives cheap and did not shrink even from death.
Ale oni zvítězili nad ním skrze krev Beránka, a skrze slovo svědectví svého, a nemilovali duší svých až do smrti.
12 For this reason be glad, O Heaven, and you who live in Heaven! Alas for the earth and the sea! For the Devil has come down to you; full of fierce anger, because he knows that his appointed time is short."
Protož veselte se nebesa, a kteříž přebýváte v nich. Běda těm, jenž přebývají na zemi a na moři; nebo ďábel sstoupil k vám, maje hněv veliký, věda, že krátký čas má.
13 And when the Dragon saw that he was hurled down to the earth, he went in pursuit of the woman who had given birth to the male child.
A když uzřel drak, že jest svržen na zem, honil ženu tu, kteráž porodila toho pacholíka.
14 Then, the two wings of a great eagle were given to the woman to enable her to fly away into the Desert to the place assigned her, there to be cared for, for a period of time, two periods of time, and half a period of time, beyond the reach of the serpent.
Ale dána jsou ženě dvě křídla orlice veliké, aby letěla od tváři hada na poušť, na místo své, kdež by ji živili do času a časů, a do půl času.
15 And the serpent poured water from his mouth--a very river it seemed--after the woman, in the hope that she would be carried away by its flood.
I vypustil had z úst svých po ženě vodu jako řeku, aby ji řeka zachvátila.
16 But the earth came to the woman's help: it opened its mouth and drank up the river which the Dragon had poured from his mouth.
Ale země pomohla ženě; neb otevřela země ústa svá a požřela řeku, kterouž vypustil drak z úst svých.
17 This made the Dragon furiously angry with the woman, and he went elsewhere to make war upon her other children--those who keep God's commandments and hold fast to the testimony of Jesus.
I rozhněval se drak na tu ženu, a šel bojovati s jinými z semene jejího, kteříž ostříhají přikázání Božích a mají svědectví Ježíše Krista.
