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 sā garbhavatī satī prasavavēdanayā vyathitārttarāvam akarōt|
She was with child. She screamed out in pain, laboring to give birth.
3 tataḥ svargē 'param ēkaṁ citraṁ dr̥ṣṭaṁ mahānāga ēka upātiṣṭhat sa lōhitavarṇastasya sapta śirāṁsi sapta śr̥ṅgāṇi śiraḥsu ca sapta kirīṭānyāsan|
Another sign was seen in heaven. Look, a great fiery red serpent, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his heads seven crowns.
4 sa svalāṅgūlēna gaganasthanakṣatrāṇāṁ tr̥tīyāṁśam avamr̥jya pr̥thivyāṁ nyapātayat| sa ēva nāgō navajātaṁ santānaṁ grasitum udyatastasyāḥ prasaviṣyamāṇāyā yōṣitō 'ntikē 'tiṣṭhat|
His tail drew one third of the stars of the sky, and threw them to the earth. The serpent stood before the woman who was about to give birth, so that when she gave birth he might devour her child.
5 sā tu puṁsantānaṁ prasūtā sa ēva lauhamayarājadaṇḍēna sarvvajātīścārayiṣyati, kiñca tasyāḥ santāna īśvarasya samīpaṁ tadīyasiṁhāsanasya ca sannidhim uddhr̥taḥ|
She gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with an iron scepter. Her child was caught up to God, and to his throne.
6 sā ca yōṣit prāntaraṁ palāyitā yatastatrēśvarēṇa nirmmita āśramē ṣaṣṭhyadhikaśatadvayādhikasahasradināni tasyāḥ pālanēna bhavitavyaṁ|
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 tataḥ paraṁ svargē saṁgrāma upāpiṣṭhat mīkhāyēlastasya dūtāśca tēna nāgēna sahāyudhyan tathā sa nāgastasya dūtāśca saṁgrāmam akurvvan, kintu prabhavituṁ nāśaknuvan
There was war in the sky. Michael and his angels made war on the serpent. The serpent and his angels made war.
8 yataḥ svargē tēṣāṁ sthānaṁ puna rnāvidyata|
They did not prevail, neither was a place found for them any more in heaven.
9 aparaṁ sa mahānāgō 'rthatō diyāvalaḥ (apavādakaḥ) śayatānaśca (vipakṣaḥ) iti nāmnā vikhyātō yaḥ purātanaḥ sarpaḥ kr̥tsnaṁ naralōkaṁ bhrāmayati sa pr̥thivyāṁ nipātitastēna sārddhaṁ tasya dūtā api tatra nipātitāḥ|
The great serpent was thrown down, the ancient 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 tataḥ paraṁ svargē uccai rbhāṣamāṇō ravō 'yaṁ mayāśrāvi, trāṇaṁ śaktiśca rājatvamadhunaivēśvarasya naḥ| tathā tēnābhiṣiktasya trātuḥ parākramō 'bhavatṁ|| yatō nipātitō 'smākaṁ bhrātr̥ṇāṁ sō 'bhiyōjakaḥ| yēnēśvarasya naḥ sākṣāt tē 'dūṣyanta divāniśaṁ||
I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying, "Now is come the salvation, the power, and the Kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ; for the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down, who accuses them before our God day and night.
11 mēṣavatsasya raktēna svasākṣyavacanēna ca| tē tu nirjitavantastaṁ na ca snēham akurvvata| prāṇōṣvapi svakīyēṣu maraṇasyaiva saṅkaṭē|
They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony. They did not love their life, even to death.
12 tasmād ānandatu svargō hr̥ṣyantāṁ tannivāminaḥ| hā bhūmisāgarau tāpō yuvāmēvākramiṣyati| yuvayōravatīrṇō yat śaitānō 'tīva kāpanaḥ| alpō mē samayō 'styētaccāpi tēnāvagamyatē||
Therefore rejoice, heavens, and you who dwell in them. Woe to the land and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has but a short time."
13 anantaraṁ sa nāgaḥ pr̥thivyāṁ svaṁ nikṣiptaṁ vilōkya tāṁ putraprasūtāṁ yōṣitam upādravat|
When the serpent saw that he was thrown down to the earth, he persecuted the woman who gave birth to the male child.
14 tataḥ sā yōṣit yat svakīyaṁ prāntarasthāśramaṁ pratyutpatituṁ śaknuyāt tadarthaṁ mahākurarasya pakṣadvayaṁ tasvai dattaṁ, sā tu tatra nāgatō dūrē kālaikaṁ kāladvayaṁ kālārddhañca yāvat pālyatē|
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, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
15 kiñca sa nāgastāṁ yōṣitaṁ srōtasā plāvayituṁ svamukhāt nadīvat tōyāni tasyāḥ paścāt prākṣipat|
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 kintu mēdinī yōṣitam upakurvvatī nijavadanaṁ vyādāya nāgamukhād udgīrṇāṁ nadīm apivat|
The earth helped the woman, and the earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river which the serpent spewed out of his mouth.
17 tatō nāgō yōṣitē kruddhvā tadvaṁśasyāvaśiṣṭalōkairarthatō ya īśvarasyājñāḥ pālayanti yīśōḥ sākṣyaṁ dhārayanti ca taiḥ saha yōddhuṁ nirgatavān|
The serpent grew angry with the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her offspring, who keep God's commandments and hold to the testimony of Jesus.
