Revelation 18:6–16

pReward her even as she rewarded you,

And double unto her double according to her works:

qIn the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.

rHow much she hath glorified herself, and llived deliciously,

So much torment and sorrow give her:

For sshe saith in her heart, tI sit a queen,

And tam no widow, and shall see no sorrow.

uTherefore shall her plagues come vin one day,

Death, and mourning, and famine;

And wshe shall be utterly burned with fire:

For xstrong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

And iythe kings of the earth, iwho have committed fornication and llived deliciously with her,

yzShall bewail her, and lament for her,

aWhen they shall see the smoke of her burning,

10  Standing afar off for the fear of her torment,

bSaying, Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city!

For cin one hour is thy judgment come.

11  And dthe merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her;

eFor no man buyeth their merchandise any more:

12  The merchandise fof gold, and silver,

And fprecious stones, and fof pearls,

And gfine linen, and fpurple, and silk, and fscarlet,

And all ||thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory,

And all manner vessels of most precious wood,

And of brass, and iron, and hmarble,

13  And icinnamon, and odours,

And ointments, and ifrankincense,

And wine, and oil,

And kfine flour, and wheat,

And beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots,

And ||mslaves, and nsouls 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  eThe merchants of these things, owhich were made rich by her,

Shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment,

Weeping and wailing, 16 And 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!
