⁶Then I saw another angel^m flying high overhead,ⁿ with the eternal gospel to announce to the inhabitants of the earth—to every nation, tribe, language, and people.^o ⁷He spoke with a loud voice:^p “Fear God^q and give him glory,^r because the hour of his judgment has come.^s Worship the one who made heaven and earth,^t the sea and the springs of water.”

⁸And another, a second angel, followed, saying, “It has fallen, Babylon the Great^u has fallen.^J She made all the nations drink the wine of her sexual immorality,^K which brings wrath.”^v

⁹And another, a third angel, followed them and spoke with a loud voice: “If anyone worships the beast and its image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, ¹⁰he will also drink the wine of God’s wrath, which is poured full strength into the cup of his anger.^w He will be tormented with fire and sulfur^x in the sight of the holy angels and in the sight of the Lamb, ¹¹and the smoke of their torment will go up forever and ever.^y There is no rest^A^z day or night for those who worship the beast and its image, or anyone who receives the mark^aa of its name. ¹²This calls for endurance from the saints,^ab who keep God’s commands and their faith in Jesus.”^B
