Revelation 12:9

Context
12:9 So 4  that huge dragon – the ancient serpent, the one called the devil and Satan, who deceives the whole world – was thrown down to the earth, and his angels along with him.

1 tn Or “obey.” For the translation of τηρέω (threw) as “obey” see L&N 36.19. In the Greek there is a wordplay: “because you have kept my word…I will keep you,” though the meaning of τηρέω is different each time.

2 tn The Greek term λόγον (logon) is understood here in the sense of admonition or encouragement.

3 tn Or “to persevere.” Here ὑπομονῆς (Jupomonhs) has been translated as a genitive of reference/respect related to τὸν λόγον (ton logon).

4 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the result of the war in heaven.
