Revelation 12

1 And a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman clothed in the sun, with the moon under her feet and a crown of twelve stars on her head.

1 وَظَهَرَتْ آيَةٌ عَظِيمَةٌ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ: ٱمْرَأَةٌ مُتَسَرْبِلَةٌ بِٱلشَّمْسِ، وَٱلْقَمَرُ تَحْتَ رِجْلَيْهَا، وَعَلَى رَأْسِهَا إِكْلِيلٌ مِنِ ٱثْنَيْ عَشَرَ كَوْكَبًا،

2 She was pregnant and crying out in the pain and agony of giving birth.

2 وَهِيَ حُبْلَى تَصْرُخُ مُتَمَخِّضَةً وَمُتَوَجِّعَةً لِتَلِدَ.

3 Then another sign appeared in heaven: a huge red dragon with seven heads, ten horns, and seven royal crowns on his heads.

3 وَظَهَرَتْ آيَةٌ أُخْرَى فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ: هُوَذَا تِنِّينٌ عَظِيمٌ أَحْمَرُ، لَهُ سَبْعَةُ رُؤُوسٍ وَعَشَرَةُ قُرُونٍ، وَعَلَى رُؤُوسِهِ سَبْعَةُ تِيجَانٍ.

4 His tail swept a third of the stars from the sky, hurling them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to give birth, ready to devour her child as soon as she gave birth.

4 وَذَنَبُهُ يَجُرُّ ثُلْثَ نُجُومِ ٱلسَّمَاءِ فَطَرَحَهَا إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. وَٱلتِّنِّينُ وَقَفَ أَمَامَ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ ٱلْعَتِيدَةِ أَنْ تَلِدَ، حَتَّى يَبْتَلِعَ وَلَدَهَا مَتَى وَلَدَتْ.

5 And she gave birth to a son, a male child, who will rule all the nations with an iron scepter. And her child was caught up to God and to His throne.

5 فَوَلَدَتِ ٱبْنًا ذَكَرًا عَتِيدًا أَنْ يَرْعَى جَمِيعَ ٱلْأُمَمِ بِعَصًا مِنْ حَدِيدٍ. وَٱخْتُطِفَ وَلَدُهَا إِلَى ٱللهِ وَإِلَى عَرْشِهِ،

6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where God had prepared a place for her to be nourished for 1,260 days.

6 وَٱلْمَرْأَةُ هَرَبَتْ إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ، حَيْثُ لَهَا مَوْضِعٌ مُعَدٌّ مِنَ ٱللهِ لِكَيْ يَعُولُوهَا هُنَاكَ أَلْفًا وَمِئَتَيْنِ وَسِتِّينَ يَوْمًا.

7 Then a war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back.

7 وَحَدَثَتْ حَرْبٌ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ: مِيخَائِيلُ وَمَلَائِكَتُهُ حَارَبُوا ٱلتِّنِّينَ، وَحَارَبَ ٱلتِّنِّينُ وَمَلَائِكَتُهُ

8 But the dragon was not strong enough, and no longer was any place found in heaven for him and his angels.

8 وَلَمْ يَقْوَوْا، فَلَمْ يُوجَدْ مَكَانُهُمْ بَعْدَ ذَلِكَ فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ.

9 And the great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

9 فَطُرِحَ ٱلتِّنِّينُ ٱلْعَظِيمُ، ٱلْحَيَّةُ ٱلْقَدِيمَةُ ٱلْمَدْعُوُّ إِبْلِيسَ وَٱلشَّيْطَانَ، ٱلَّذِي يُضِلُّ ٱلْعَالَمَ كُلَّهُ، طُرِحَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، وَطُرِحَتْ مَعَهُ مَلَائِكَتُهُ.

10 And I heard a loud voice in heaven saying: “Now have come the salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God, and the authority of His Christ. For the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down—he who accuses them day and night before our God.

10 وَسَمِعْتُ صَوْتًا عَظِيمًا قَائِلًا فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ: «ٱلْآنَ صَارَ خَلَاصُ إِلَهِنَا وَقُدْرَتُهُ وَمُلْكُهُ وَسُلْطَانُ مَسِيحِهِ، لِأَنَّهُ قَدْ طُرِحَ ٱلْمُشْتَكِي عَلَى إِخْوَتِنَا، ٱلَّذِي كَانَ يَشْتَكِي عَلَيْهِمْ أَمَامَ إِلَهِنَا نَهَارًا وَلَيْلًا.

11 They have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony. And they did not love their lives so as to shy away from death.

11 وَهُمْ غَلَبُوهُ بِدَمِ ٱلْخَرُوفِ وَبِكَلِمَةِ شَهَادَتِهِمْ، وَلَمْ يُحِبُّوا حَيَاتَهُمْ حَتَّى ٱلْمَوْتِ.

12 Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea; with great fury the devil has come down to you, knowing he has only a short time.”

12 مِنْ أَجْلِ هَذَا، ٱفْرَحِي أَيَّتُهَا ٱلسَّمَاوَاتُ وَٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِيهَا. وَيْلٌ لِسَاكِنِي ٱلْأَرْضِ وَٱلْبَحْرِ، لِأَنَّ إِبْلِيسَ نَزَلَ إِلَيْكُمْ وَبِهِ غَضَبٌ عَظِيمٌ! عَالِمًا أَنَّ لَهُ زَمَانًا قَلِيلًا».

13 And when the dragon saw that he had been thrown to the earth, he pursued the woman who had given birth to the male child.

13 وَلَمَّا رَأَى ٱلتِّنِّينُ أَنَّهُ طُرِحَ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ، ٱضْطَهَدَ ٱلْمَرْأَةَ ٱلَّتِي وَلَدَتْ ٱلِٱبْنَ ٱلذَّكَرَ،

14 But the woman was given two wings of a great eagle to fly from the presence of the serpent to her place in the wilderness, where she was nourished for a time, and times, and half a time.

14 فَأُعْطِيَتِ ٱلْمَرْأَةُ جَنَاحَيِ ٱلنَّسْرِ ٱلْعَظِيمِ لِكَيْ تَطِيرَ إِلَى ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ إِلَى مَوْضِعِهَا، حَيْثُ تُعَالُ زَمَانًا وَزَمَانَيْنِ وَنِصْفَ زَمَانٍ، مِنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْحَيَّةِ.

15 Then from his mouth the serpent spewed water like a river to overtake the woman and sweep her away in the torrent.

15 فَأَلْقَتِ ٱلْحَيَّةُ مِنْ فَمِهَا وَرَاءَ ٱلْمَرْأَةِ مَاءً كَنَهْرٍ لِتَجْعَلَهَا تُحْمَلُ بِٱلنَّهْرِ.

16 But the earth helped the woman and opened its mouth to swallow up the river that the dragon had poured from his mouth.

16 فَأَعَانَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ ٱلْمَرْأَةَ، وَفَتَحَتِ ٱلْأَرْضُ فَمَهَا وَٱبْتَلَعَتِ ٱلنَّهْرَ ٱلَّذِي أَلْقَاهُ ٱلتِّنِّينُ مِنْ فَمِهِ.

17 And the dragon was enraged at the woman and went to make war with the rest of her children, who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus. And the dragon stood on the shore of the sea.

17 فَغَضِبَ ٱلتِّنِّينُ عَلَى ٱلْمَرْأَةِ، وَذَهَبَ لِيَصْنَعَ حَرْبًا مَعَ بَاقِي نَسْلِهَا ٱلَّذِينَ يَحْفَظُونَ وَصَايَا ٱللهِ، وَعِنْدَهُمْ شَهَادَةُ يَسُوعَ ٱلْمَسِيحِ.
