And his tail drew along the third part of the stars of heaven, and did cast them to the earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was about to bring forth, that, when she had brought forth, he might devour her child. And she brought forth a male child, that was to rule all nations with a rod of iron; and her child was caught away to God, even to his throne. And the woman fled into the wilderness, where she has a place prepared by God, that they should feed her there for a thousand two hundred and sixty days. And there was war in heaven; Michael and his angels fought with the dragon; and the dragon and his angels fought, and prevailed not: nor was their place found any more in heaven.

And the earth helped the woman; and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the river that the dragon threw out of his mouth. And the dragon was angry with the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her children, that keep the commandments of God, and that hold the testimony of Jesus.

And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascends out of the abyss will make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them.
These are the two olive trees, and the two lamps that stand before the -Lord of the earth. And if any man will injure them, fire proceeds out of their mouth, and devours their enemies; and if any one will injure them, he must be killed in this way. These have authority to shut heaven, that it may not rain in the days of their prophecy; and they have authority over the waters, to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with every plague, as often as they wish. And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascends out of the abyss will make war with them, and overcome them, and kill them.
{ And I stood on the sand of the sea, and saw a beast coming up out of the sea, and he had seven heads and ten horns, and on his horns ten diadems, and on his heads names impiously irreverent.} And the beast that I saw was like a leopard, and his feet were as those of a bear, and his mouth was as the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave him his power, and his throne, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as if it had been wounded even to death; and his deadly wound was healed; and all the earth wondered after the beast. read more.
And they worshiped the dragon, because he gave authority to the beast: and they worshiped the beast, saying, Who is like the beast? and, Who is able to make war with him? And there was given him a mouth that spoke great things and impious words; and authority was given to him to continue forty-two months. And he opened his mouth in impious speeches against God, to utter impious words against his name, and his tabernacle, and against those who dwell in heaven. And it was given him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and authority was given him over every tribe and people and tongue and nation.

And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and he that sat on him was called faithful and true, and in righteousness does he judge, and make war. His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on his head were many diadems; and he had a name written which no one knew, but he himself. And he was clothed with a garment dipped in blood; and his name is called The Word of God. read more.
And the armies that were in heaven followed him on white horses; and they were clothed in fine linen, white and clean. And out of his mouth goes a sharp, two-edged sword, that with it he may smite the nations; and he shall rule them with a rod of iron; and he treads the wine-press of the fiercest wrath of God, the Almighty. And he has, on his raiment and on his thigh, a name written, King of kings, and Lord of lords. And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the birds that fly in mid-heaven. Come, gather yourselves to the great supper of God, that you may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of officers, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of those who sit on them, and the flesh of all, both freemen and servants, both small and great. And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, assembled together to make war with him that sat on the horse, and with his army.
