Otkrivenje 12

Biblija Hrvatski	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 I znamenje veliko pokaza se na nebu: Žena odjevena suncem, mjesec joj pod nogama, a na glavi vijenac od dvanaest zvijezda.	1 And a great sign appeared in heaven: A woman clothed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars:
2 Trudna viče u porođajnim bolima i mukama rađanja.	2 And being with child, she cried travailing in birth, and was in pain to be delivered.
3 I pokaza se drugo znamenje na nebu: gle, Zmaj velik, ognjen, sa sedam glava i deset rogova; na glavama mu sedam kruna,	3 And there was seen another sign in heaven: and behold a great red dragon, having seven heads, and ten horns: and on his head seven diadems:
4 a rep mu povlači trećinu zvijezda nebeskih – i obori ih na zemlju. Zmaj stade pred Ženu koja imaše roditi da joj, čim rodi, proždre Dijete.	4 And his tail drew the third part of the stars of heaven, and cast them to the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to be delivered; that, when she should be delivered, he might devour her son.
5 I ona porodi sina, muškića, koji će vladati svim narodima palicom gvozdenom. I Dijete njeno bi uzeto k Bogu i prijestolju njegovu.	5 And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with an iron rod: and her son was taken up to God, and to his throne.
6 A Žena pobježe u pustinju gdje joj Bog pripravi sklonište da se ondje hrani tisuću dvjesta i šezdeset dana.	6 And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she had a place prepared by God, that there they should feed her a thousand two hundred sixty days.
7 I nasta rat na nebu: Mihael i njegovi anđeli zarate se sa Zmajem. Zmaj uđe u rat i anđeli njegovi,	7 And there was a great battle in heaven, Michael and his angels fought with the dragon, and the dragon fought and his angels:
8 ali ne nadvlada. I ne bijaše im više mjesta na nebu.	8 And they prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in heaven.
9 Zbačen je Zmaj veliki, Stara zmija – imenom Đavao, Sotona, zavodnik svega svijeta. Bačen je na zemlju, a s njime su bačeni i anđeli njegovi.	9 And that great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, who is called the devil and Satan, who seduceth the whole world; and he was cast unto the earth, and his angels were thrown down with him.
10 I začujem glas na nebu silan: »Sada nasta spasenje i snaga i kraljevstvo Boga našega i vlast Pomazanika njegova! Jer zbačen je tužitelj braće naše koji ih je dan i noć optuživao pred Bogom našim.	10 And I heard a loud voice in heaven, saying: Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: because the accuser of our brethren is cast forth, who accused them before our God day and night.
11 Ali oni ga pobijediše krvlju Jaganjčevom i riječju svojega svjedočanstva: nisu ljubili života svoga – sve do smrti.	11 And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of the testimony, and they loved not their lives unto death.
12 Zato veselite se, nebesa i svi nebesnici! A jao vama, zemljo i more, jer Đavao siđe k vama, gnjevan veoma, znajući da ima malo vremena!«	12 Therefore rejoice, O heavens, and you that dwell therein. Woe to the earth, and to the sea, because the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, knowing that he hath but a short time.
13 Kad Zmaj vidje da je zbačen na zemlju, stade progoniti Ženu koja rodi muškića.	13 And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman, who brought forth the man child:
14 No Ženi bijahu dana dva velika krila orlujska da odleti u pustinju, u svoje sklonište gdje se, sklonjena od Zmije, hrani jedno vrijeme i dva vremena i polovicu vremena.	14 And there were given to the woman two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the desert unto her place, where she is nourished for a time and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
15 I Zmija iz usta pusti za Ženom vodu poput rijeke da je rijeka odnese.	15 And the serpent cast out of his mouth after the woman, water as it were a river; that he might cause her to be carried away by the river.
16 Ali zemlja priteče u pomoć Ženi: otvori usta i popi rijeku što je Zmaj pusti iz usta.	16 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 I razgnjevi se Zmaj na Ženu pa ode i zarati se s ostatkom njezina potomstva, s onima što čuvaju Božje zapovijedi i drže svjedočanstvo Isusovo.	17 And the dragon was angry against the woman: and went to make war with the rest of her seed, who keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
18 I stade na morski žal.	18 And he stood upon the sand of the sea.
