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,
E viu-se um grande signal no céu: uma mulher vestida de sol, e a lua debaixo dos seus pés, e uma corôa de doze estrellas sobre a sua cabeça.
2 and she was crying out in the pains and agony of childbirth.
E estava gravida, e com dôres de parto, e gritava com ancias de dar á luz.
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.
E viu-se outro signal no céu; e eis que era um grande dragão vermelho, que tinha sete cabeças e dez cornos, e sobre as suas cabeças sete diademas.
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.
E a sua cauda levava após si a terça parte das estrellas do céu, e lançou-as sobre a terra; e o dragão parou diante da mulher que havia de dar á luz, para que, dando ella á luz, lhe tragasse o filho.
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,
E deu á luz um filho, um varão que havia de reger todas as nações com vara de ferro; e o seu filho foi arrebatado para Deus e para o seu throno.
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.
E a mulher fugiu para o deserto, onde já tinha logar preparado por Deus, para que lá a mantivessem mil duzentos e sessenta dias.
7 And war broke out in Heaven, Michael and his angels engaging in battle with the Dragon.
E houve batalha no céu: Miguel e os seus anjos batalhavam contra o dragão, e batalhava o dragão e os seus anjos;
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.
Mas não prevaleceram, nem mais o seu logar se achou nos céus.
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.
E foi lançado o grande dragão, a antiga serpente, chamada o Diabo, e Satanás, que engana todo o mundo; elle foi lançado na terra, e os seus anjos foram lançados com elle
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.
E ouvi uma grande voz no céu, que dizia: Agora chegada está a salvação, e a força, e o reino do nosso Deus, e o poder do seu Christo; porque já o accusador de nossos irmãos é derribado, o qual diante do nosso Deus os accusava de dia e de noite.
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.
E elles o venceram pelo sangue do Cordeiro e pela palavra do seu testemunho; e não amaram as suas vidas até á morte.
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."
Pelo que alegrae-vos, ó céus, e os que n'elles habitaes. Ai dos que habitam na terra e no mar; porque o diabo desceu a vós, e tem grande ira, sabendo que já tem pouco tempo.
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.
E, quando o dragão viu que fôra lançado na terra, perseguiu a mulher que dera á luz o varão.
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.
E foram dadas á mulher duas azas de grande aguia, para que voasse ao deserto, ao seu logar, onde é sustentada por tempo, e tempos, e metade de tempo, fóra da vista da serpente.
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.
E a serpente lançou da sua bocca, atraz da mulher, agua como um rio, para que pelo rio a fizesse arrebatar.
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.
E a terra ajudou a mulher; e a terra abriu a sua bocca, e tragou o rio que o dragão lançara da sua bocca.
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.
E o dragão irou-se contra a mulher, e foi fazer guerra contra os demais da sua semente, que guardam os mandamentos de Deus, e teem o testemunho de Jesus Christo.
