Reading 1, Revelation 12:7-12

⁷ And now war broke out in heaven, when Michael with his angels attacked the dragon. The dragon fought back with his angels,

⁸ but they were defeated and driven out of heaven.

⁹ The great dragon, the primeval serpent, known as the devil or Satan, who had led all the world astray, was hurled down to the earth and his angels were hurled down with him.

¹⁰ Then I heard a voice shout from heaven, 'Salvation and power and empire for ever have been won by our God, and all authority for his Christ, now that the accuser, who accused our brothers day and night before our God, has been brought down.

¹¹ They have triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word to which they bore witness, because even in the face of death they did not cling to life.

¹² So let the heavens rejoice and all who live there; but for you, earth and sea, disaster is coming -- because the devil has gone down to you in a rage, knowing that he has little time left.'

Responsorial Psalm, Psalms 138:1-2, 2-3, 4-5

¹ [Of David] I thank you, Yahweh, with all my heart, for you have listened to the cry I uttered. In the presence of angels I sing to you,

² I bow down before your holy Temple. I praise your name for your faithful love and your constancy; your promises surpass even your fame.

³ You heard me on the day when I called, and you gave new strength to my heart.

⁴ All the kings of the earth give thanks to you, Yahweh, when they hear the promises you make;

⁵ they sing of Yahweh's ways, 'Great is the glory of Yahweh!'
