Threefold Hallelujah Over Babylon’s Fall

19 After this I heard what sounded like the roar of a great multitudev in heaven shouting:

“Hallelujah!w

Salvationx and glory and powery belong to our God,

2 for true and just are his judgments.z

He has condemned the great prostitutea

who corrupted the earth by her adulteries.

He has avenged on her the blood of his servants.”b

3 And again they shouted:

“Hallelujah!c

The smoke from her goes up for ever and ever.”d

4 The twenty-four elderse and the four living creaturesf fell downg and worshiped God, who was seated on the throne. And they cried:

“Amen, Hallelujah!”h

5 Then a voice came from the throne, saying:

“Praise our God,

all you his servants,i

you who fear him,

both great and small!”j

6 Then I heard what sounded like a great multitude,k like the roar of rushing watersl and like loud peals of thunder, shouting:

“Hallelujah!m

For our Lord God Almightyn reigns.o

7 Let us rejoice and be glad

and give him glory!p

For the wedding of the Lambq has come,

and his brider has made herself ready.
