The Fall of Babylon the Great

18After these things I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was illuminated with his glory.G2532G3326G5023G1492G243G32G2597G1537G3772G2192G3173G1849G2532G1093G5461G1537G846G1391 2And he cried mightily with a loud voice, saying, "Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and has become a dwelling place of demons, a prison for every foul spirit, and a cage for every unclean and hated bird!G2532G2896G2479G1722G3173G5456G3004G897G3173G4098G4098G2532G1096G2732G1142G2532G5438G3956G169G4151G2532G5438G3956G169G2532G3404G3732 3"For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich through the abundance of her luxury."G3754G3956G1484G4095G1537G3631G2372G846G4202G2532G935G1093G4203G3326G846G2532G1713G1093G4147G1537G1411G846G4764 4And I heard another voice from heaven saying, "Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.G2532G191G243G5456G1537G3772G3004G1831G1537G846G3450G2992G3363G4790G3363G4790G846G266G2532G3363G2983G3363G1537G846G4127 5"For her sins have reached to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.G3754G846G266G190G2853G891G3772G2532G2316G3421G846G92 6"Render to her just as she rendered to you, and repay her double according to her works; in the cup which she has mixed, mix double for her.G591G846G2532G5613G846G3778G591G5213G2532G1363G846G1362G2596G846G2041G1722G4221G3739G2767G2767G846G1362 7"In the measure that she glorified herself and lived luxuriously, in the same measure give her torment and sorrow; for she says in her heart, 'I sit as queen, and am no widow, and will not see sorrow.'G3745G1392G1438G2532G4763G5118G929G2532G3997G1325G846G3754G3004G1722G846G2588G2521G938G2532G1510G3756G5503G2532G1492G3364G3997 8"Therefore her plagues will come in one day—death and mourning and famine. And she will be utterly burned with fire, for strong is the Lord God who judges her.G5124G1223G2240G846G4127G2240G1722G3391G2250G2288G2532G3997G2532G3042G2532G2618G1722G4442G3754G2478G2962G2316G3588G2919G846

The World Mourns Babylon’s Fall

9"The kings of the earth who committed fornication and lived luxuriously with her will weep and lament for her, when they see the smoke of her burning,G2532G935G1093G3588G4203G2532G4763G3326G846G2799G846G2532G2875G1909G846G3752G991G2586G846G4451 10"standing at a distance for fear of her torment, saying, 'Alas, alas, that great city Babylon, that mighty city! For in one hour your judgment has come.'G2476G3113G575G1223G5401G846G929G3004G3759G3759G3173G4172G897G2478G4172G3754G1722G3391G5610G2064G4675G2920G2064 11"And the merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her, for no one buys their merchandise anymore:G2532G1713G1093G2799G2532G3996G1909G846G3754G3762G59G846G1117G3765 12"merchandise of gold and silver, precious stones and pearls, fine linen and purple, silk and scarlet, every kind of citron wood, every kind of object of ivory, every kind of object of most precious wood, bronze, iron, and marble;G1117G5557G2532G696G2532G5093G3037G2532G3135G2532G1040G2532G4209G2532G4596G2532G2847G2532G3956G2367G3586G2532G3956G4632G1661G2532G3956G4632G1537G5093G3586G2532G5475G2532G4604G2532G3139 13"and cinnamon and incense, fragrant oil and frankincense, wine and oil, fine flour and wheat, cattle and sheep, horses and chariots, and bodies and souls of men.G2532G2792G2532G2368G2532G3464G2532G3030G2532G3631G2532G1637G2532G4585G2532G4621G2532G2934G2532G4263G2532G2462G2532G4480G2532G4983G2532G5590G444 14"The fruit that your soul longed for has gone from you, and all the things which are rich and splendid have gone from you, and you shall find them no more at all.G2532G3703G4675G5590G1939G565G575G4675G2532G3956G3588G3045G2532G2986G565G575G4675G2532G2147G846G3765G3364 15"The merchants of these things, who became rich by her, will stand at a distance for fear of her torment, weeping and wailing,G1713G5130G3588G4147G575G846G2476G3113G575G1223G5401G846G929G2799G2532G3996 16"and saying, 'Alas, alas, that great city that was clothed in fine linen, purple, and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls!G2532G3004G3759G3759G3173G4172G4016G1039G2532G4210G2532G2847G2532G5558G1722G5557G2532G5093G3037G2532G3135 17'For in one hour such great riches came to nothing.'

Finality of Babylon’s Fall

21Then a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and threw it into the sea, saying, "Thus with violence the great city Babylon shall be thrown down, and shall not be found anymore.G2532G1520G2478G32G142G3037G5613G3173G3458G2532G906G1519G2281G3004G3779G3731G906G3173G4172G897G906G2532G2147G3364G2089 22"The sound of harpists, musicians, flutists, and trumpeters shall not be heard in you anymore. No craftsman of any craft shall be found in you anymore, and the sound of a millstone shall not be heard in you anymore.G2532G5456G2790G2532G3451G2532G834G2532G4538G191G3364G2089G1722G4671G2532G3364G3956G5079G3956G5078G2147G2089G1722G4671G2532G5456G3458G191G3364G2089G1722G4671 23"The light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore, and the voice of bridegroom and bride shall not be heard in you anymore. For your merchants were the great men of the earth, for by your sorcery all the nations were deceived.G2532G5457G3088G5316G3364G2089G1722G4671G2532G5456G3566G2532G3565G191G3364G2089G1722G4671G3754G4675G1713G2258G3175G1093G3754G1722G4675G5331G4105G3956G1484G4105 24"And in her was found the blood of prophets and saints, and of all who were slain on the earth."G2532G1722G846G2147G129G4396G2532G40G2532G3956G4969G1909G1093
