1ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲓⲥ ϩⲏⲡⲡⲉ ⲁ ⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲙⲙⲏⲓⲛⲓ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⲉⲥϫⲟⲗϩ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓⲓⲟϩ ⲥⲁⲡⲉⲥⲏⲧ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉⲥ ϭⲁⲗⲁⲩϫ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲭⲗⲟⲙ ⲉϥⲧⲟⲓ ⳿ⲉϫⲉⲛ ⲧⲉⲥⲁⲫⲉ ⳿ⲙⲓ̅ⲃ̅ ⳿ⲛⲥⲓⲟⲩ.
1And 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:
2ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲉⲥ⳿ⲙⲃⲟⲕⲓ ⲉⲥⲱϣ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ⲉⲥϯ ⲛⲁⲕϩⲓ ⲉⲥⲙⲟⲕϩ ⲉⲥⲛⲁⲙⲓⲥⲓ.
2And being with child, she cried travailing in birth, and was in pain to be delivered.
3ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲕⲉⲙⲏⲓⲛⲓ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲟⲛϩϥ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲓⲥ ⲟⲩ⳿ⲇⲣⲁⲕⲱⲛ ⳿ⲛⲁⲟⲩⲁⲛ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲭⲣⲱⲙ ⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⲡⲉ ⳿ⲉⲙⲁϣⲱ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲍ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲁⲫⲉ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲓ̅ ⳿ⲛⲧⲁⲡ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲟⲛ ⲍ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲭⲗⲟⲙ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⲛⲉϥ⳿ⲁⲫⲏⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ.
3And 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:
4ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲉϥⲥⲁⲧ ⲁϥⲱϣϯ ⳿ⲙⲫⲣⲉⲅ̅ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲥⲓⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϩⲓⲧⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉⲥⲏⲧ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲇⲣⲁⲕⲱⲛ ⲁϥⲟϩⲓ ⳿ⲉⲣⲁⲧϥ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ⳿ⲙⲑⲟ ⳿ⲛϯ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⲉϣⲱⲡ ⲁⲥϣⲁⲛⲙⲓⲥⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉϥⲟⲙⲕϥ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲇⲣⲁⲕⲱⲛ.
4And 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.
5ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲥⲙⲓⲥⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛϩⲱⲟⲩⲧ ⲫⲁⲓ ⲡⲉ ⲫⲏⲉⲑⲛⲁ⳿ⲁⲙⲟⲛⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓⲉⲑⲛⲟⲥ ϧⲉⲛ ⲟⲩ⳿ϣⲃⲱⲧ ⳿ⲙⲃⲉⲛⲓⲡⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩϩⲱⲗⲉⲙ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲓ ϩⲁ ⲫϯ ⲛⲉⲙ ϩⲁ ⲡⲉϥ⳿ⲑⲣⲟⲛⲟⲥ.
5And 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.
6ⲟⲩⲟϩ ϯ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⲁⲥⲫⲱⲧ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲁϥⲉ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲁ ⲫϯ ⲥⲉⲃⲧⲱⲧϥ ⲛⲁⲥ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲥⲉϣⲁⲛⲟⲩϣⲥ ⳿ⲙⲙⲁⲩ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩϣⲟ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲥ̅ ⳿ⲛϥ̅ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ.
6And 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.
7ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲙⲃⲱⲧⲥ ⲁϥϣⲱⲡⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ ⲙⲓⲭⲁⲏⲗ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲉϥⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲱⲧⲥ ⲟⲩⲃⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲇⲣⲁⲕⲱⲛ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲇⲣⲁⲕⲱⲛ ⲁϥⲃⲱⲧⲥ ⲟⲩⲃⲏⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲛⲉϥⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ.
7And there was a great battle in heaven, Michael and his angels fought with the dragon, and the dragon fought and his angels:
8ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉϥ⳿ϣϫⲉⲙϫⲟⲙ ⲟⲩⲃⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉϯ ⲛⲉⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲙⲡⲟⲩⲭⲁ ⲙⲁ ⲛⲁϥ ϫⲉ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ.
8And they prevailed not, neither was their place found any more in heaven.
9ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩϩⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓ⳿ⲇⲣⲁⲕⲱⲛ ⲡⲓⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲛϩⲟϥ ⳿ⲡⲁⲣⲭⲉⲟⲥ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲟⲩⲙⲟⲩϯ ⳿ⲉⲣⲟϥ ⲡⲓⲇⲓ⳿ⲁⲃⲟⲗⲟⲥ ⳿ⲡⲥⲁⲧⲁⲛⲁⲥ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲥⲱⲣⲉⲙ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲕⲟⲥⲙⲟⲥ ⲧⲏⲣϥ ⲁⲩϩⲓⲧϥ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉⲥⲏⲧ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲁⲩϩⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲛⲛⲉϥⲕⲉⲁⲅⲅⲉⲗⲟⲥ ⳿ⲉⲡⲉⲥⲏⲧ ⲛⲉⲙⲁϥ.
9And 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.
10ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲓⲥⲱⲧⲉⲙ ⳿ⲉⲟⲩⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲛ⳿ⲥⲙⲏ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡϣⲱⲓ ϧⲉⲛ ⳿ⲧⲫⲉ ⲉⲥϫⲱ ⳿ⲙⲙⲟⲥ ϫⲉ ϯⲛⲟⲩ ⲁ ⲡⲓⲟⲩϫⲁⲓ ϣⲱⲡⲓ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯϫⲟⲙ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲟⲩⲣⲟ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉⲛⲛⲟⲩϯ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓⲉⲣϣⲓϣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲡⲉϥⲭ͞ⲣⲥ̅ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩϩⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲕⲁⲧⲏⲅⲟⲣⲟⲥ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲛⲉⲛ⳿ⲥⲛⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲡⲓⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲫⲏⲉⲧⲁϥⲉⲣⲕⲁⲧⲏⲅⲟⲣⲓⲛ ⳿ⲙⲡⲉ⳿ⲙⲑⲟ ⳿ⲙⲫϯ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓ⳿ⲉϩⲟⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲉϫⲱⲣϩ.
10And 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.

11And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of the testimony, and they loved not their lives unto death.

12Therefore 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.
13ⲉⲧⲁϥⲛⲁⲩ ⲇⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲇⲣⲁⲕⲱⲛ ϫⲉ ⲁⲩϩⲓⲧϥ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲁϥϭⲟϫⲓ ⳿ⲛⲥⲁ ϯ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⲑⲏ ⲉⲧⲁⲥⲙⲓⲥⲓ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓϣⲏⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛϩⲱⲟⲩⲧ.
13And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto the earth, he persecuted the woman, who brought forth the man child:
14ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁⲩϯ ⲛⲁⲥ ⳿ⲛⲛⲓϣϯ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲛϩ ⲃ̅ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛⲛⲁ ⲟⲩⲁϧⲱⲙ ϩⲓⲛⲁ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉⲥϩⲱⲗ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲡϣⲁϥⲉ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ϯ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲫⲙⲁ ⲉⲧⲟⲩⲛⲁϣⲁⲛⲟⲩϣⲥ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲥⲏⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ϩⲁⲛⲥⲏⲟⲩ ⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲧⲫⲁϣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲟⲩⲥⲏⲟⲩ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲁ ⳿ⲡϩⲟ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓϩⲟϥ.
14And 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.
15ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲡⲓϩⲟϥ ⲁϥϩⲓⲟⲩ⳿ⲓ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϧⲉⲛ ⲣⲱϥ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲫⲣⲏϯ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲓⲁⲣⲟ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲥⲁⲫⲁϩⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϯ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ.
15And 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.
16ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⳿ⲡⲕⲁϩⲓ ⲁϥⲟⲩⲱⲛ ⳿ⲛⲣⲱϥ ⲁϥⲟⲙⲕ ⳿ⲙⲡⲓⲓⲁⲣⲟ ⳿ⲙⲙⲱⲟⲩ ⲉⲧⲁ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲇⲣⲁⲕⲱⲛ ϩⲓⲧϥ ⳿ⲉⲃⲟⲗ ϩⲓⲫⲁϩⲟⲩ ⳿ⲛϯ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ.
16And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed up the river, which the dragon cast out of his mouth.
17ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϫⲱⲛⲧ ⳿ⲛϫⲉ ⲡⲓ⳿ⲇⲣⲁⲕⲱⲛ ϩⲓϫⲉⲛ ϯ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⲟⲩⲟϩ ⲁϥϣⲉ ⲛⲁϥ ⳿ⲉ⳿ⲓⲣⲓ ⳿ⲛⲟⲩⲃⲱⲧⲥ ⲛⲉⲙ ⳿ⲡⲥⲉⲡⲓ ⳿ⲙ⳿ⲡ⳿ⲥⲡⲉⲣⲙⲁ ⳿ⲛϯ⳿ⲥϩⲓⲙⲓ ⲛⲏⲉⲧⲁⲣⲉϩ ⳿ⲉⲛⲓⲉⲛⲧⲟⲗⲏ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ ⲫϯ ⲛⲉⲙ ϯⲙⲉⲧⲙⲉⲑⲣⲉ ⳿ⲛⲧⲉ Ⲓⲏ̅ⲥ̅
17And 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.
