10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven say:

“The salvation and the power and the kingdom of our God
    and the authority of his Christ have now come.
They have come because the accuser of our brothers has been thrown out.
    He accused our brothers day and night before our God.
11 And our brothers defeated him
    by the blood of the Lamb’s death
    and by the truth they preached.
They did not love their lives so much
    that they were afraid of death.
12 So be happy, you heavens
    and all who live there!
But it will be terrible for the earth and the sea,
    because the devil has come down to you!
He is filled with anger.
    He knows that he does not have much time.”

10 Then I heard a loud voice in heaven(A) say:

“Now have come the salvation(B) and the power
    and the kingdom of our God,
    and the authority of his Messiah.
For the accuser of our brothers and sisters,(C)
    who accuses them before our God day and night,
    has been hurled down.
11 They triumphed over(D) him
    by the blood of the Lamb(E)
    and by the word of their testimony;(F)
they did not love their lives so much
    as to shrink from death.(G)
12 Therefore rejoice, you heavens(H)
    and you who dwell in them!
But woe(I) to the earth and the sea,(J)
    because the devil has gone down to you!
He is filled with fury,
    because he knows that his time is short.”
