15eThe merchants of these things, owhich were made rich by her,
Shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment,
Weeping and wailing, 16And saying,
bAlas, alas, that great city,
pThat was clothed in gfine linen, and fpurple, and fscarlet,
And decked fwith gold, and precious stones, and fpearls!
17For cin one hour so great riches qis come to nought.
And every rshipmaster, and all the company in ships,
And sailors, and as many as trade by sea,
Stood afar off,

The merchants of these wares, who gained wealth from her, will stand far off, in fear of her torment, weeping and mourning aloud,
“Alas, alas, for the great city
that was clothed in fine linen,
in purple and scarlet,
adorned with gold,
with jewels, and with pearls!
For in a single hour all this wealth has been laid waste.”
And all shipmasters and seafaring men, sailors and all whose trade is on the sea, stood far off

“ ‘Woe! Woe to you, great city,
dressed in fine linen, purple and scarlet,
and glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls!
In one hour such great wealth has been brought to ruin!’
“Every sea captain, and all who travel by ship, the sailors, and all who earn their living from the sea, will stand far off.

The merchants who became wealthy by selling her these things will stand at a distance, terrified by her great torment. They will weep and cry out,
“How terrible, how terrible for that great city!
She was clothed in finest purple and scarlet linens,
decked out with gold and precious stones and pearls!
In a single moment
all the wealth of the city is gone!”
And all the captains of the merchant ships and their passengers and sailors and crews will stand at a distance.
