Revelation 12:14-17
The woman was given two wings of a great eagle, so that she could fly from the serpent’s presence to her place in the wilderness, where she was fed for a time, times, and half a time.From his mouth the serpent spewed water like a river flowing after the woman, to sweep her away in a torrent.But the earth helped the woman. The earth opened its mouth and swallowed up the river that the dragon had spewed from his mouth.So the dragon was furious with the woman and left to wage war against the rest of her offspring— those who keep God’s commands and have the testimony about Jesus.

Revelation 11:3-11
I will empower my two witnesses, and they will prophesy for 1,260 days, dressed in sackcloth.”These are the two olive trees and the two lampstands that stand before the Lord of the earth.If anyone wants to harm them, fire comes from their mouths and consumes their enemies; if anyone wants to harm them, he must be killed in this way.These men have the power to close up the sky so that it does not rain during the days of their prophecy. They also have power over the waters to turn them into blood and to strike the earth with every plague whenever they want.When they finish their testimony, the beast that comes up out of the abyss will make war with them, conquer them, and kill them.Their dead bodies will lie in the public square of the great city, which prophetically is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified.And representatives from the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations will view their bodies for three and a half days and not permit their bodies to be put into a tomb.Those who live on the earth will gloat over them and celebrate and send gifts to one another because these two prophets brought judgment to those who live on the earth.But after 3 1/2 days, the breath of life from God entered them, and they stood on their feet. So great fear fell on those who saw them.
