Revelation 12

NEW JERUSALEM	STUTTGARTENSIA-DELITZSCH
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 וְאוֹת גְּדוֹלָה נִרְאֲתָה בַּשָּׁמָיִם אִשָּׁה אֲשֶׁר־הַשֶּׁמֶשׁ לְבוּשָׁהּ וְהַיָּרֵחַ תַּחַת רַגְלֶיהָ וְעַל־רֹאשָׁהּ עֲטֶרֶת שְׁנֵים עָשָׂר כּוֹכָבִים
2 She was pregnant, and in labour, crying aloud in the pangs of childbirth.	2 וְהִיא הָרָה וַתִּזְעַק בַּחֲבָלֶיהָ וַתְּקַשׁ בְּלִדְתָּהּ
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 וַתֵּרָא אוֹת אַחֶרֶת בַּשָּׁמָיִם וְהִנֵּה תַּנִּין גָּדוֹל אָדֹם כָּאֵשׁ וְלוֹ שִׁבְעָה רָאשִׁים וְעֶשֶׂר קַרְנַיִם וְעַל־רָאשָׁיו שִׁבְעָה כְתָרִים
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 וּזְנָבוֹ סָחַב מִן־הַשָּׁמַיִם שְׁלִישִׁית הַכּוֹכָבִים וַיַּשְׁלִיכֵם אָרְצָה וַיִּתְיַצֵּב הַתַּנִּין לִפְנֵי הָאִשָּׁה הֶחָלָה לָלֶדֶת לְמַעַן בְּלֹעַ אֶת־בְּנָהּ בְּלִדְתָּהּ
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 וַתֵּלֶד בֵּן זָכָר הֶעָתִיד לִרְעוֹת כָּל־הַגּוֹיִם בְּשֵׁבֶט בַּרְזֶל וַיִּלָּקַח בְּנָהּ אֶל־הָאֱלֹהִים וְאֶל־כִּסְאוֹ
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 וְהָאִשָּׁה בָּרְחָה הַמִּדְבָּרָה אֲשֶׁר־שָׁם הוּכַן־לָהּ מָקוֹם מֵאֵת אֱלֹהִים לְמַעַן יְכַלְכְּלוּהָ שָּׁם יָמִים אֶלֶף וּמָאתַיִם וְשִׁשִּׁים
7 And now war broke out in heaven, when Michael with his angels attacked the dragon. The dragonfought back with his angels,	7 וַתְּהִי מִלְחָמָה בַּשָּׁמָיִם מִיכָאֵל וּמַלְאָכָיו נִלְחָמִים בַּתַּנִּין וְהַתַּנִּין נִלְחָם וּמַלְאָכָיו
8 but they were defeated and driven out of heaven.	8 וְלֹא הִתְחַזָּקוּ וְגַם מְקוֹמָם לֹא־נִמְצָא עוֹד בַּשָּׁמָיִם
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 וַיּוּטַל הַתַּנִּין הַגָּדוֹל הַנָּחָשׁ הַקַּדְמוֹנִי אֲשֶׁר־נִקְרָא שְׁמוֹ מַלְשִׁין וְשָׂטָן הַמַּדִּיחַ תֵּבֵל כֻּלָּהּ הוּא הוּטַל אָרְצָה וּמַלְאָכָיו עִמּוֹ הוּטָלוּ
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 וָאֶשְׁמַע קוֹל גָּדוֹל בַּשָּׁמַיִם וַיֹּאמַר עַתָּה בָאָה יְשׁוּעַת אֱלֹהֵינוּ וְעֻזּוֹ וּמַלְכוּתוֹ וּמֶמְשֶׁלֶת מְשִׁיחוֹ כִּי הוּרַד שׂוֹטֵן אַחֵינוּ הָעֹמֵד לְשִׂטְנָם לִפְנֵי אֱלֹהֵינוּ יוֹמָם וָלָיְלָה
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 וְהֵם נִצְּחֻהוּ בְדַם־הַשֶּׂה וּבִדְבַר עֵדוּתָם וְלֹא־אָהֲבוּ אֶת־נַפְשָׁם עַד לַמָּוֶת
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 רָנּוּ עַל־זֹאת שָׁמַיִם וְשֹׁכְנֵיהֶם אוֹי לְישְׁבֵי אֶרֶץ וָיָם כִּי־יָרַד אֲלֵיכֶם הַמַּלְשִׁין בְּחֵמָה גְדוֹלָה מִדַּעְתּוֹ כִּי קָצְרָה עִתּוֹ
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 וַיְהִי כַּאֲשֶׁר רָאָה הַתַּנִּין כִּי הוּטַל אָרְצָה וַיִּרְדֹּף אֶת־הָאִשָּׁה אֲשֶׁר יָלְדָה אֶת־הַזָּכָר
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 וַיֻּתְּנוּ לָאִשָּׁה שְׁתֵּי כַנְפֵי הַנֶּשֶׁר הַגָּדוֹל לָעוּף הַמִּדְבָּרָה אֶל־מְקוֹמָהּ אֲשֶׁר תְּכֻלְכַּל־שָׁם מוֹעֵד מוֹעֲדִים וָחֵצִי מִפְּנֵי הַנָּחָשׁ
15 So the serpent vomited water from his mouth, like a river, after the woman, to sweep her away in thecurrent,	15 וַיִּשְׁלַח הַנָּחָשׁ נְהַר־מַיִם מִפִּיו אַחֲרֵי הָאִשָּׁה לְשָׁטְפָהּ בַּנָּהָר
16 but the earth came to her rescue; it opened its mouth and swal owed the river spewed from thedragon's mouth.	16 וַתַּעֲזֹר הָאָרֶץ אֶת־הָאִשָּׁה וַתִּפְתַּח הָאָרֶץ אֶת־פִּיהָ וַתִּבְלַע אֶת־הַנָּהָר אֲשֶׁר־שָׁלַח הַתַּנִּין מִפִּיהוּ
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 וַיִּקְצֹף הַתַּנִּין עַל־הָאִשָּה וַיֵּלֶךְ לַעֲשׂוֹת מִלְחָמָה עִם־יֶתֶר זַרְעָהּ הַשֹּמְרִים פִּקּוּדֵי אֱלֹהִים וַאֲשֶׁר לָהֶם עֵדוּת יֵשׁוּעַ הַמָּשִׁיחַ
18 And I took my stand on the seashore.
