Revelation 12

NEW JERUSALEM	NOVA VULGATA
1 Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman, robed with the sun, standing on the moon, and onher head a crown of twelve stars.	1 Et signum magnum appa ruit in caelo: mulier amicta sole, et luna subpedibus eius, et super caput eius corona stellarum duodecim;
2 She was pregnant, and in labour, crying aloud in the pangs of childbirth.	2 et in uterohabens, et clamat parturiens et cruciatur, ut pariat.
3 Then a second sign appeared in the sky: there was a huge red dragon with seven heads and tenhorns, and each of the seven heads crowned with a coronet.	3 Et visum est aliudsignum in caelo: et ecce draco rufus magnus, habens capita septem et cornuadecem, et super capita sua septem diademata;
4 Its tail swept a third of the stars from the sky and hurled them to the ground, and the dragon stoppedin front of the woman as she was at the point of giving birth, so that it could eat the child as soon as it was born.	4 et cauda eius trahit tertiampartem stellarum caeli et misit eas in terram. Et draco stetit ante mulierem,quae erat paritura, ut, cum peperisset, filium eius devoraret.
5 The woman was delivered of a boy, the son who was to rule al the nations with an iron sceptre, andthe child was taken straight up to God and to his throne,	5 Et peperitfilium, masculum, qui recturus est omnes gentes in virga ferrea; et raptus estfilius eius ad Deum et ad thronum eius.
6 while the woman escaped into the desert, where God had prepared a place for her to be looked afterfor twelve hundred and sixty days.	6 Et mulier fugit in desertum, ubi habetlocum paratum a Deo, ut ibi pascant illam diebus mille ducentis sexaginta.
7 And now war broke out in heaven, when Michael with his angels attacked the dragon. The dragonfought back with his angels,	7 Et factum est proelium in caelo, Michael et angeli eius, ut proeliarentur cumdracone. Et draco pugnavit et angeli eius,
8 but they were defeated and driven out of heaven.	8 et non valuit, neque locus inventusest eorum amplius in caelo.
9 The great dragon, the primeval serpent, known as the devil or Satan, who had led all the world astray,was hurled down to the earth and his angels were hurled down with him.	9 Et proiectus est draco ille magnus, serpensantiquus, qui vocatur Diabolus et Satanas, qui seducit universum orbem;proiectus est in terram, et angeli eius cum illo proiecti sunt.
10 Then I heard a voice shout from heaven, 'Salvation and power and empire for ever have been wonby our God, and all authority for his Christ, now that the accuser, who accused our brothers day and night beforeour God, has been brought down.	10 Et audivivocem magnam in caelo dicentem: “ Nunc facta est salus et virtus et regnum Dei nostri et potestas Christi eius, quia proiectus est accusator fratrum nostrorum, qui accusabat illos ante conspectum Dei nostri die ac nocte.
11 They have triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word to which they bore witness,because even in the face of death they did not cling to life.	11 Et ipsi vicerunt illum propter sanguinem Agni et propter verbum testimonii sui; et non dilexerunt animam suam usque ad mortem.
12 So let the heavens rejoice and al who live there; but for you, earth and sea, disaster is coming --because the devil has gone down to you in a rage, knowing that he has little time left.'	12 Propterea laetamini, caeli et qui habitatis in eis. Vae terrae et mari, quia descendit Diabolus ad vos habens iram magnam, sciensquod modicum tempus habet! ”.
13 As soon as the dragon found himself hurled down to the earth, he sprang in pursuit of the woman,the mother of the male child,	13 Et postquam vidit draco quod proiectus est in terram, persecutus estmulierem, quae peperit masculum.
14 but she was given a pair of the great eagle's wings to fly away from the serpent into the desert, to theplace where she was to be looked after for a time, two times and half a time.	14 Et datae sunt mulieri duae alae aquilaemagnae, ut volaret in desertum in locum suum, ubi alitur per tempus et temporaet dimidium temporis a facie serpentis.
15 So the serpent vomited water from his mouth, like a river, after the woman, to sweep her away in thecurrent,	15 Et misit serpens ex ore suo postmulierem aquam tamquam flumen, ut eam faceret trahi a flumine.
16 but the earth came to her rescue; it opened its mouth and swal owed the river spewed from thedragon's mouth.	16 Et adiuvitterra mulierem, et aperuit terra os suum et absorbuit flumen, quod misit dracode ore suo.
17 Then the dragon was enraged with the woman and went away to make war on the rest of herchildren, who obey God's commandments and have in themselves the witness of Jesus.	17 Et iratus est draco in mulierem et abiit facere proelium cum reliquis desemine eius, qui custodiunt mandata Dei et habent testimonium Iesu.
18 And I took my stand on the seashore.	18 Et stetit super arenam maris.
