and shall devour their enemies. And if any man will hurt them, in this

their prophecy: And they have power over waters, to turn them into blood
and to strike the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.

ascendeth out of the abyss shall make war against them and shall

and thou hast reigned.

of the dead, that they should be judged and that thou shouldest render
reward to thy servants the prophets and the saints, and to them that

corrupted the earth.
11:19. And the temple of God was opened in heaven: and the ark of his

Apocalypse Chapter 12
The vision of the woman clothed with the sun and of the great dragon her
persecutor.
12:1. 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.
A woman... The church of God. It may also, by allusion, be applied to
our blessed Lady. The church is clothed with the sun, that is, with
Christ: she hath the moon, that is, the changeable things of the world,
under her feet: and the twelve stars with which she is crowned, are the
twelve apostles: she is in labour and pain, whilst she brings forth her
children, and Christ in them, in the midst of afflictions and
persecutions.
12:2. And being with child, she cried travailing in birth: and was in
pain to be delivered.
