  Revelation   chapter 18

   1 And after these things I saw another angel come
  down from heaven, having great power; and the earth
  was lightened with his glory.
   2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying,
  Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become
  the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul
  spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
   3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the
  wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth
  have committed fornication with her, and the
  merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the
  abundance of her delicacies.
   4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying,
  Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers
  of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
   5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God
  hath remembered her iniquities.
   6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double
  unto her double according to her works: in the cup
  which she hath filled fill to her double.
   7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived
  deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for
  she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no
  widow, and shall see no sorrow.
   8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day,
  death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be
  utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God
  who judgeth her.
   9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed
  fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall
  bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see
  the smoke of her burning,
  10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment,
  saying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that
  mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
  11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and
  mourn over her; for no man buyeth their merchandise
  any more:
  12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious
  stones, and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple,
  and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all
  manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of
  most precious wood, and of brass, and iron, and
  marble,
  13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and
  frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and
  wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and
  chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.
  14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are
  departed from thee, and all things which were dainty
  and goodly are departed from thee, and thou shalt
  find them no more at all.
  15 The merchants of these things, which were made
  rich by her, shall stand afar off for the fear of her
  torment, weeping and wailing,
  16 And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was
  clothed in fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and
  decked with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!
  17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought.
  And every shipmaster, and all the company in ships,
  and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood afar
  off,
  18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning,
  saying, What city is like unto this great city!
  19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried,
  weeping and wailing, saying, Alas, alas, that great
  city, wherein were made rich all that had ships in
  the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour
  is she made desolate.
  20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy
  apostles and prophets; for God hath avenged you on
  her.
  21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great
  millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus
  with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown
  down, and shall be found no more at all.
  22 And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of
  pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all
  in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be,
  shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a
  millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee;
  23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at
  all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of
  the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for
  thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by
  thy sorceries were all nations deceived.
  24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of
  saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.
