¹[Ny amin'ny vehivavy mitafy ny masoandro, izay nenjehin'ny dragona] Ary nisy famantarana lehibe hita tany an-danitra, dia vehivavy mitafy ny masoandro, ary ny volana no eo ambanin'ny tongony, ary misy satro-boninahitra kintana roa ambin'ny folo amin'ny lohany,

¹And a great sign was seen in the heaven, a woman arrayed with the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars,

²sady bevohoka izy; ary mihetsi-jaza izy ka mitaraina, satria marary fatratra efa hiteraka.

²and being with child she doth cry out, travailing and pained to bring forth.

³Ary nisy famantarana hafa koa hita tany an-danitra, ka, indro, nisy dragona mena lehibe manan-doha fito sy tandroka folo, ary misy diadema fito amin'ny lohany.

³And there was seen another sign in the heaven, and, lo, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his head seven diadems,

⁴Ary ny rambony dia manala ny ampahatelon'ny kintana amin'ny lanitra ka manjera ireny ho amin'ny tany; ary ny dragona nijanona teo anatrehan'ilay vehivavy efa hiteraka mba handrapaka ny zanany, raha vao teraka;

⁴and his tail doth draw the third of the stars of the heaven, and he did cast them to the earth; and the dragon did stand before the woman who is about to bring forth, that when she may bring forth, her child he may devour;

⁵ary niteraka zazalahy izy, izay efa hanapaka ny firenena rehetra amin'ny tehim-by; ary ny zanany novonjena faingana nakarina ho any amin'Andriamanitra, dia ho any amin'ny seza fiandrianany. [ Gr. handry]

⁵and she brought forth a male child, who is about to rule all the nations with a rod of iron, and caught away was her child unto God and His throne,

⁶Ary ravehivavy kosa nandositra nankany an-efitra, izay nisy fitoerany namboarin'Andriamanitra, mba hovelomina any enim-polo amby roan-jato amby arivo andro izy.

⁶and the woman did flee to the wilderness, where she hath a place made ready from God, that there they may nourish her — days a thousand, two hundred, sixty.

⁷Ary nisy ady tany an-danitra: Mikaela sy ny anjeliny niady tamin'ilay dragona; ary ilay dragona mbamin'ny anjeliny kosa dia niady,

⁷And there came war in the heaven; Michael and his messengers did war against the dragon, and the dragon did war, and his messengers,

⁸nefa tsy naharesy, sady tsy nisy fitoerana ho azy intsony tany an-danitra.

⁸and they did not prevail, nor was their place found any more in the heaven;

⁹Ary nazera ilay dragona, dia ilay menarana ela, izay atao hoe devoly sy Satana, izay mamitaka izao tontolo izao; dia nazera tamin'ny tany izy, ary ny anjeliny koa niaraka nazera taminy.

⁹and the great dragon was cast forth — the old serpent, who is called `Devil,` and `the Adversary,` who is leading astray the whole world — he was cast forth to the earth, and his messengers were cast forth with him.

¹⁰Dia nahare feo mahery tany an-danitra aho nanao hoe: Ankehitriny dia tonga ny famonjena sy ny hery sy ny fanjakan'Andriamanitsika, Ary ny fahefan'ny Kristiny, Satria nazera ilay mpiampanga ny rahalahintsika, dia ilay miampanga azy eo anatrehan'Andriamanitsika andro aman'alina.

¹⁰And I heard a great voice saying in the heaven, `Now did come the salvation, and the power, and the reign, of our God, and the authority of His Christ, because cast down was the accuser of our brethren, who is accusing them before our God day and night;

¹¹Ary izy ireo naharesy azy noho ny amin'ny ran'ny Zanak'ondry Sy ny teny filazana Azy, Ary tsy nankamamy ny ainy intsony iry, na dia ho faty aza.

¹¹and they did overcome him because of the blood of the Lamb, and because of the word of their testimony, and they did not love their life — unto death;

¹²Ary noho izany mifalia, ry lanitra sy ianareo izay monina ao aminy. Loza ho an'ny tany sy ny ranomasina ! Fa nidina ho aminareo ny devoly sady manana fahatezerana lehibe, Satria fantany fa kely sisa ny androny.

¹²because of this be glad, ye heavens, and those in them who do tabernacle; wo to those inhabiting the land and the sea, because the Devil did go down unto you, having great wrath, having known that he hath little time.`

¹³Ary rehefa hitan'ilay dragona fa nazera tamin'ny tany izy, dia nanenjika ilay vehivavy niteraka ny zazalahy izy.

¹³And when the dragon saw that he was cast forth to the earth, he pursued the woman who did bring forth the male,

¹⁴Ary ilay vehivavy nomena ny elatra roa an'ny voromahery lehibe hanidinany ho any an-efitra, ho any amin'ny fitoerany, izay itaizana azy fetr'andro iray sy fetr'andro roa ary antsasaky ny fetr'andro, mba tsy ho hitan'ilay menarana izy.

¹⁴and there were given to the woman two wings of the great eagle, that she may fly to the wilderness, to her place, where she is nourished a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent;

¹⁵Ary ilay menarana namoaka rano tamin'ny vavany, toy ny riaka, hanaraka an-dravehivavy, mba hindaosin'ny riaka iry.

¹⁵and the serpent did cast forth after the woman, out of his mouth, water as a river, that he may cause her to be carried away by the river,

¹⁶Nefa ny tany namonjy an-dravehivavy, fa nivava ny tany ka nitelina ny riaka izay navoaky ny dragona tamin'ny vavany.Dia tezitra tamin'ilay vehivavy ny dragona ka lasa nandeha hiady tamin'ny zanany sisa, izay mitandrina ny didin'Andriamanitra sy mitana ny filazana an'i Jesosy. Ary nitsangana teo ambonin'ny fasiky ny ranomasina izy.

¹⁶and the land did help the woman, and the land did open its mouth and did swallow up the river, that the dragon did cast forth out of his mouth;

¹⁷Dia tezitra tamin'ilay vehivavy ny dragona ka lasa nandeha hiady tamin'ny zanany sisa, izay mitandrina ny didin'Andriamanitra sy mitana ny filazana an'i Jesosy. Ary nitsangana teo ambonin'ny fasiky ny ranomasina izy.

¹⁷and the dragon was angry against the woman, and went away to make war with the rest of her seed, those keeping the commands of God, and having the testimony of Jesus Christ.
