A supernatural being of evil or wickedness, often depicted as the enemy of God in religious traditions, or a person regarded as wicked or mischievous.
Where the word comes from
From Old English "deofol," borrowed from Latin "diabolus," which came from Greek "diabolos" meaning "slanderer" or "accuser."
