Therefore be full of delight, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the earth and to the sea, because the devil has come down to you, having great rage, knowing he has a short time.

W. Kelly Translation

Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that tabernacle in them. Woe to the eartha and to the sea! for the devil is gone down unto you, having great fury, knowing that he hath a short timeb.

WK Translation Notes

+
a
It is "woe to the earth and to the sea," not to "the inhabiters of," as in the T. R. The Complutensian Edd. are right, but the Revisers follow the older form, and hence say, "woe for . . . ."
b
It is not mere lapse of time, which would be chronos, but kairon or "season."
