Context
12:8 But 1  the dragon was not strong enough to prevail, 2  so there was no longer any place left 3  in heaven for him and his angels. 4  12:9 So 5  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.
