Rev. 12:9,12‑17• 9And the great dragon was cast out, the ancient serpent, he who is called Devil and Satan, he who deceives the whole habitable world, he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
 12Therefore 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.
 13And when the dragon saw that he had been cast out into the earth, he persecuted the woman which bore the male child.
 14And there were given to the woman the two wings of the great eagle, that she might fly into the desert into her place, where she is nourished there a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.
 15And the serpent cast out of his mouth behind the woman water as a river, that he might make her be as one carried away by a river.

How great is the patience of God! (“Job 1-2” by S. Ridout)
