Revelation 12:4 in Context — Revelation 12
2 E ela estava grávida, gritando, tendo dores de parto, e sendo atormentada pelo trabalho de parto.
3 E foi visto outro sinal no céu; e eis que [era] um grande dragão vermelho, que tinha sete cabeças e dez chifres, e sobre suas cabeças sete coroas.
4 E sua cauda levava [após si] a terça [parte] das estrelas do céu, e as lançou sobre a terra; e o dragão ficou parado diante da mulher, que estava a ponto de gerar [filho] ; para que, quando ela desse à luz, [o dragão] devorasse o filho dela.
5 E ela gerou um filho macho, que com vara de ferro ia dominar todas as nações; e o filho dela foi arrebatado para Deus e para o seu trono.
6 E a mulher fugiu para o deserto, onde ela tinha lugar preparado por Deus, para que ali a alimentassem por mil duzentos e sessenta dias.
