| Another mysterious sight appeared in the sky.
There was a huge red dragon with seven heads and ten
horns and a crown on each of his heads. With his tail he
dragged a third of the stars out of the sky and threw
them down to the earth. He stood in front of the woman,
in order to eat her child as soon as it was born. Then
war broke out in heaven. Michael and his angels fought
against the dragon, who fought back with his angels; but
the dragon was defeated, and he and his angels were not
allowed to stay in heaven any longer. The huge dragon was
thrown out - that ancient serpent, called the Devil, or
Satan, that deceived the whole world. He was thrown down
to earth, and all his angels with him. |
