Andafterthese thingsI sawanotherangelcome downfromheaven, havinggreatpower; andtheearthwas lightenedwithhisglory. Andhe criedmightilywith a strongvoice, saying, Babylonthegreatis fallen, is fallen, andis becomethe habitationof devils, andthe holdof everyfoulspirit, anda cageof everyuncleanandhatefulbird. Forallnationshave drunkofthewineof thewrathof herfornication, andthekingsof theearthhave committed fornicationwithher, andthemerchantsof theearthare waxed richthroughtheabundanceof herdelicacies. AndI heardanothervoicefromheaven, saying, Comeout ofher, mypeople, thatye be not partakersof hersins, andthatye receivenotofherplagues. Forhersinshave reacheduntoheaven, andGodhath rememberedheriniquities. Rewardherevenassherewardedyou, anddoubleunto herdoubleaccordingto herworks: inthecupwhichshe hath filledfillto herdouble. How muchshe hath glorifiedherself, andlived deliciously, so muchtormentandsorrowgiveher: forshe saithinherheart, I sita queen, andamnowidow, andshall seenosorrow. Thereforeshall herplaguescomeinoneday, death, andmourning, andfamine; andshe shall be utterly burnedwithfire: forstrong is the LordGodwho judgethher. Andthekingsof theearth, who have committed fornicationandlived deliciouslywithher, shall bewailher, andlamentforher, whenthey shall seethesmokeof herburning, Standingafar offforthefearof hertorment, saying, Alas, alasthat greatcityBabylon, that mightycity! forinonehouris thyjudgmentcome. Andthemerchantsof theearthshall weepandmournoverher; forno manbuyeththeirmerchandiseany more: The merchandiseof gold, andsilver, andpreciousstones, andof pearls, andfine linen, andpurple, andsilk, andscarlet, andallthyinewood, andall mannervesselsof ivory, andall mannervesselsofmost preciouswood, andof brass, andiron, andmarble, Andcinnamon, andodors, andointments, andfrankincense, andwine, andoil, andfine flour, andwheat, andbeasts, andsheep, andhorses, andchariots, andslaves, andsoulsof men. Andthefruitsthat thysoullusted afterare departedfromthee, andall thingswhich were daintyandgoodlyare departedfromthee, andthou shalt findthemno more at all. Themerchantsof these things, which were made richbyher, shall standafar offforthefearof hertorment, weepingandwailing, Andsaying, Alas, alasthat greatcity, that was clothedin fine linen, andpurple, andscarlet, anddeckedwithgold, andpreciousstones, andpearls! Forin onehourso greatrichesis come to naught. Andeveryshipmaster, andallthecompanyinships, andsailors, andas many astradeby sea, stoodafar off, Andcriedwhen they sawthesmokeof herburning, saying, What city is like untothis greatcity! Andthey castdustontheirheads, andcried, weepingandwailing, saying, Alas, alas, that greatcity, whereinwere made richallthat hadshipsintheseaby reason ofhercostliness! forin onehouris she made desolate.
