< Αποκαλυψις Ιωαννου 12 >

1 και σημειον μεγα ωφθη εν τω ουρανω γυνη περιβεβλημενη τον ηλιον και η σεληνη υποκατω των ποδων αυτησ και επι τησ κεφαλησ αυτησ στεφανοσ αστερων δωδεκα
And, a great sign, appeared in heaven: a woman arrayed with the sun, and, the moon, beneath her feet, and, upon her head, a crown of twelve stars;
2 και εν γαστρι εχουσα εκραζεν ωδινουσα και βασανιζομενη τεκειν
and she was with child, and crieth out, being in pangs and in anguish to bring forth?
3 και ωφθη αλλο σημειον εν τω ουρανω και ιδου δρακων πυροσ μεγασ εχων κεφαλασ επτα και κερατα δεκα και επι τασ κεφαλασ αυτου επτα διαδηματα
And there appeared another sign in heaven; and lo! a great red dragon, —having seven heads and ten horns, and, upon his heads, seven diadems;
4 και η ουρα αυτου συρει το τριτον των αστερων του ουρανου και εβαλεν αυτουσ εισ την γην και ο δρακων εστηκεν ενωπιον τησ γυναικοσ τησ μελλουσησ τεκειν ινα οταν τεκη το τεκνον αυτησ καταφαγη
and, his tail, draweth the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth. And, the dragon, stood before the woman who was about to bring forth, that, as soon as she should bring forth, he might devour, her child.
5 και ετεκεν υιον αρρενα οσ μελλει ποιμαινειν παντα τα εθνη εν ραβδω σιδηρα και ηρπασθη το τεκνον αυτησ προσ τον θεον και προσ τον θρονον αυτου
And she brought forth a son, a manchild, who was about to shepherd all the nations with a sceptre of iron; and her child was caught away unto God and unto his throne.
6 και η γυνη εφυγεν εισ την ερημον οπου εχει εκει τοπον ητοιμασμενον υπο του θεου ινα εκει εκτρεφωσιν αυτην ημερασ χιλιασ διακοσιασ εξηκοντα
And, the woman, fled into the desert, where she hath a place prepared of God, that, there, they should nourish her a thousand, two hundred, and sixty days.
7 και εγενετο πολεμοσ εν τω ουρανω ο μιχαηλ και οι αγγελοι αυτου πολεμησαι μετα του δρακοντοσ και ο δρακων επολεμησεν και οι αγγελοι αυτου
And there came to be war in heaven: Michael and his messengers [going forth] to war with the dragon; and, the dragon, fought, and his messengers;
8 και ουκ ισχυσεν ουδε τοποσ ευρεθη αυτω ετι εν τω ουρανω
and he prevailed not, neither was place found for them, any longer, in heaven.
9 και εβληθη ο δρακων ο μεγασ ο οφισ ο αρχαιοσ ο καλουμενοσ διαβολοσ και σατανασ ο πλανων την οικουμενην ολην εβληθη εισ την γην και οι αγγελοι αυτου μετ αυτου εβληθησαν
And the great dragon was cast out, —the ancient serpent, he that is called Adversary and the Satan, that deceiveth the whole habitable world, —he was cast to the earth, and his messengers, with him, were cast.
10 και ηκουσα φωνην μεγαλην εν τω ουρανω λεγουσαν αρτι εγενετο η σωτηρια και η δυναμισ και η βασιλεια του θεου ημων και η εξουσια του χριστου αυτου οτι εβληθη ο κατηγοροσ των αδελφων ημων ο κατηγορων αυτων ενωπιον του θεου ημων ημερασ και νυκτοσ
And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying—Now, hath come the salvation, and the power, and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ; because the accuser of our brethren hath been cast out, who was accusing them before our God day and night;
11 και αυτοι ενικησαν αυτον δια το αιμα του αρνιου και δια τον λογον τησ μαρτυριασ αυτων και ουκ ηγαπησαν την ψυχην αυτων αχρι θανατου
And, they, overcame him by reason of the blood of the Lamb, and by reason of their witnessing word, and they loved not their life, even unto death.
12 δια τουτο ευφραινεσθε ουρανοι και οι εν αυτοισ σκηνουντεσ ουαι τη γη και τη θαλασση οτι κατεβη ο διαβολοσ προσ υμασ εχων θυμον μεγαν ειδωσ οτι ολιγον καιρον εχει
For this cause, be joyful, O heavens, and ye who, therein, are tabernacling. Woe! unto the earth, and the sea, because the Adversary hath come down unto you, having great wrath—knowing that, but a little season, he hath.
13 και οτε ειδεν ο δρακων οτι εβληθη εισ την γην εδιωξεν την γυναικα ητισ ετεκεν τον αρρενα
And, when the dragon saw that he was cast to the earth, he pursued the woman who had brought forth the manchild.
14 και εδοθησαν τη γυναικι δυο πτερυγεσ του αετου του μεγαλου ινα πετηται εισ την ερημον εισ τον τοπον αυτησ οπωσ τρεφηται εκει καιρον και καιρουσ και ημισυ καιρου απο προσωπου του οφεωσ
And there were given unto the woman the two wings of the great eagle, that she might fly into the desert, into her place, —where she is nourished, a season and seasons and half a season, from the face of the serpent.
15 και εβαλεν ο οφισ εκ του στοματοσ αυτου οπισω τησ γυναικοσ υδωρ ωσ ποταμον ινα αυτην ποταμοφορητον ποιηση
And the serpent cast out of his mouth, after the woman, water as a river, that he might cause her to be carried away by the stream.
16 και εβοηθησεν η γη τη γυναικι και ηνοιξεν η γη το στομα αυτησ και κατεπιεν τον ποταμον ον εβαλεν ο δρακων εκ του στοματοσ αυτου
And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the river which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
17 και ωργισθη ο δρακων επι τη γυναικι και απηλθεν ποιησαι πολεμον μετα των λοιπων του σπερματοσ αυτησ των τηρουντων τασ εντολασ του θεου και εχοντων την μαρτυριαν ιησου
And the dragon was angered against the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her seed—with them who were keeping the commandments of God, and holding the witness of Jesus; —and he stood upon the sand of the sea.
