Revelation 18:11–19

¹¹“And the ^amerchants of the earth ^bweep and mourn over her, because no one buys their cargoes any more—

¹²cargoes of ^agold and silver and precious ¹stones and pearls and fine linen and purple and silk and scarlet, and every kind of citron wood and every article of ivory and every article made from very costly wood and ²bronze and iron and marble,

¹³and cinnamon and ¹spice and incense and perfume and frankincense and wine and olive oil and fine flour and wheat and cattle and sheep, and cargoes of horses and chariots and ²slaves and ^3ahuman lives.

¹⁴“The fruit ¹you long for has gone from you, and all things that were luxurious and splendid have passed away from you and men will no longer find them.

¹⁵“The ^amerchants of ^bthese things, who became rich from her, will ^cstand at a distance because of the fear of her torment, weeping and mourning,

¹⁶saying, ‘^aWoe, woe, ^bthe great city, she who ^cwas clothed in fine linen and purple and scarlet, and ¹adorned with gold and precious ²stones and pearls;

¹⁷for in ^aone hour such great wealth has been laid ^bwaste!’ And ^cevery shipmaster and every ¹passenger and sailor, and as many as make their living by the sea, stood at a distance,

¹⁸and were ^acrying out as they ^bsaw the smoke of her burning, saying, ‘^cWhat city is like ^dthe great city?’

¹⁹“And they threw ^adust on their heads and were crying out, weeping and mourning, saying, ‘^bWoe, woe, the great city, in which all who had ships at sea ^cbecame rich by her ¹wealth, for in one hour she has been laid ^dwaste!’
