CHAPTER 18



:1 And after <G 3326> these <G 5023> things I saw <G 1492>
another <G 0243>

angel <G 0032> come <G 2597> down <G 2597> from heaven <G 3772>,
having <G 2192>

great <G 3173> power <G 1849>; and the earth <G 1093> was
lightened <G 5461>

with his glory <G 1391>.



:2 And he cried <G 2896> mightily <G 2479> with a strong <G
3173> voice <G

5456>, saying <G 3004>, Babylon <G 0897> the great <G 3173> is
fallen <G 4098>,

is fallen <G 4098>, and is become <G 1096> the habitation <G
2732> of devils <G

1142>, and the hold <G 5438> of every <G 3956> foul <G 0169>
spirit <G 4151>,

and a cage <G 5438> of every <G 3956> unclean <G 0169> and
hateful <G 3404> bird

<G 3732>.



:3 For all <G 3956> nations <G 1484> have drunk of the wine <G
3631> of the

wrath <G 2372> of her fornication <G 4202>, and the kings <G
0935> of the earth

<G 1093> have committed <G 4203> fornication <G 4203> with her,
and the

merchants <G 1713> of the earth <G 1093> are waxed <G 4147> rich
<G 4147>

through <G 1537> the abundance <G 1411> of her delicacies <G
4764>.



:4 And I heard <G 0191> another <G 0243> voice <G 5456> from
heaven <G 3772>,

saying <G 3004>, Come <G 1831> out of her, my people <G 2992>,
that ye be not

partakers <G 4790> of her sins <G 0266>, and that ye receive <G
2983> not of her

plagues <G 4127>.



:5 For her sins <G 0266> have reached <G 0190> unto heaven <G
3772>, and God <G

2316> hath remembered <G 3421> her iniquities <G 0092>.



:6 Reward <G 0591> her even <G 2532> as she rewarded <G 0591>
you, and double

<G 1363> unto her double <G 1362> according <G 2596> to her
works <G 2041>: in

the cup <G 4221> which <G 3739> she hath filled <G 2767> fill <G
2767> to her

double <G 1362>.



:7 How <G 3745> much <G 3745> she hath glorified < G 1392>
herself <G 1438>, and

lived deliciously <G 4763>, so <G 5118> much <G 5118> torment <G
0929> and

sorrow <G 3997> give <G 1325> her: for she saith < G 3004> in her
heart <G 2588>,

I sit <G 2521> a queen <G 0938>, and am <G 1510> no <G 3756>
widow <G 5503>, and

shall see <G 1492> no <G 3364> sorrow <G 3997>.



:8 Therefore <G 5124> shall her plagues <G 4127> come <G 2240>
in one <G 3391>

day <G 2250>, death <G 2288>, and mourning <G 3997>, and famine
<G 3042>; and

she shall be utterly <G 2618> burned <G 2618> with fire <G 4442>:
for strong <G

2478> [is] the Lord <G 2962> God <G 2316> who < G 3588> judgeth
<G 2919> her.



:9 And the kings <G 0935> of the earth <G 1093>, who <G 3588>
have committed <G

4203> fornication <G 4203> and lived deliciously <G 4763> with
her, shall bewail

<G 2799> her, and lament <G 2875> for her, when <G 3752> they
shall see <G 0991>

the smoke <G 2586> of her burning <G 4451>,



:10 Standing <G 2476> afar <G 3113> off <G 0575> for the fear
<G 5401> of her

torment <G 0929>, saying <G 3004>, Alas <G 3758> , alas <G 3758>,
that great <G

3173> city <G 4172> Babylon <G 0897>, that mighty <G 2478> city
<G 4172>! for in

one <G 3391> hour <G 5610> is thy judgment <G 2920> come <G
2064>.



:11 And the merchants <G 1713> of the earth <G 1093> shall weep
<G 2799> and

mourn <G 3996> over <G 1909> her; for no <G 3762> man <G 3762>
buyeth <G 0059>

their merchandise <G 1117> any <G 3765> more <G 3765>:



:12 The merchandise <G 1117> of gold <G 5557>, and silver <G
0696>, and

precious <G 5093> stones <G 3037>, and of pearls < G 3135>, and
fine linen <G

1040>, and purple <G 4209>, and silk <G 4596>, and scarlet <G
2847>, and all <G

3956> thyine <G 2367> wood <G 3586>, and all <G 3956> manner
vessels <G 4632> of

ivory <G 1661>, and all <G 3956> manner vessels <G 4632> of most
precious <G

5093> wood <G 3586>, and of brass <G 5475>, and iron <G 4604>,
and marble <G

3139>,



:13 And cinnamon <G 2792>, and odours <G 2368>, and ointments
<G 3464>, and

frankincense <G 3030>, and wine <G 3631>, and oil < G 1637>, and
fine <G 4585>

flour <G 4585>, and wheat <G 4621>, and beasts <G 2934>, and
sheep <G 4263>, and

horses <G 2462>, and chariots <G 4480>, and slaves <G 4983>, and
souls <G 5590>

of men <G 0444>.



:14 And the fruits <G 3703> that thy soul <G 5590> lusted <G
1937> after are

departed <G 0565> from thee, and all <G 3956> things which <G
3588> were dainty

<G 3045> and goodly <G 2986> are departed <G 0565> from thee,
and thou shalt

find <G 2147> them no <G 3764> more <G 3765> at all <G 3364>.



:15 The merchants <G 1713> of these <G 5130> things, which <G
3588> were made

<G 4147> rich <G 4147> by her, shall stand <G 2476> afar <G
3113> off <G 0575>

for the fear <G 5401> of her torment <G 0929>, weeping <G 2799>
and wailing <G

3996>,



:16 And saying <G 3004>, Alas <G 3758>, alas <G 3758>, that
great <G 3173> city

<G 4172>, that was clothed <G 4016> in fine linen < G 1039>, and
purple <G 4210>,

and scarlet <G 2847>, and decked <G 5558> with gold <G 5557>,
and precious <G

5093> stones <G 3037>, and pearls <G 3135>!



:17 For in one <G 3391> hour <G 5610> so <G 5118> great <G
5118> riches <G

4149> is come <G 2049> to nought <G 2049>. And every <G 3956>
shipmaster <G

2942>, and all <G 3956> the company <G 3658> in ships <G 4143>,
and sailors <G

3492>, and as many <G 3745> as trade <G 2038> by sea <G 2281>,
stood <G 2476>

afar <G 3113> off <G 0575>,



:18 And cried <G 2896> when they saw <G 3708> the smoke <G
2586> of her burning

<G 4451>, saying <G 3004>, What <G 5101> [city <G 4172> is] like
<G 3664> unto

this great <G 3173> city <G 4172>!



:19 And they cast <G 0906> dust <G 5522> on <G 1909> their
heads <G 2776>, and

cried <G 2896>, weeping <G 2799> and wailing <G 3996>, saying <G
3004>, Alas <G

3758>, alas <G 3758>, that great <G 3173> city < G 4172>, wherein
<G 3757> were

made <G 4147> rich <G 4147> all <G 3956> that had <G 2192> ships
<G 4143> in the

sea <G 2281> by reason <G 1537> of her costliness < G 5094>! for
in one hour <G

5610> is she made <G 2049> desolate <G 2049>.



:20 Rejoice <G 2165> over <G 1909> her, [thou] heaven <G 3772>,
and [ye] holy

<G 0040> apostles and prophets <G 4396>; for God < G 2316> hath
avenged <G 2917>

you on <G 1537> her.



:21 And a mighty <G 2478> angel <G 0032> took <G 0142> up a
stone <G 3037> like

<G 5613> a great <G 3173> millstone <G 3458>, and cast <G 0906>
[it] into <G

1519> the sea <G 2281>, saying <G 3004>, Thus < G 3779> with
violence <G 3731>

shall that great <G 3173> city <G 4172> Babylon <G 0897> be
thrown <G 0906>

down, and shall be found <G 2147> no <G 3364> more <G 2089> at
all <G 3364>.



:22 And the voice <G 5456> of harpers <G 2790>, and musicians
<G 3451>, and of

pipers <G 0834>, and trumpeters <G 4538>, shall be heard <G
0191> no <G 3364>

more <G 2089> at all <G 3364> in thee; and no <G 3364> craftsman
<G 5079>, of

whatsoever <G 3956> craft <G 5078> [he be], shall be found <G
2147> any <G 2089>

more <G 2089> in thee; and the sound <G 5456> of a millstone <G
3458> shall be

heard <G 0191> no <G 3364> more <G 2089> at all <G 3364> in thee;



:23 And the light <G 5457> of a candle <G 3088> shall shine <G
5316> no <G

3364> more <G 2089> at all <G 3364> in thee; and the voice <G
5456> of the

bridegroom <G 3566> and of the bride <G 3565> shall be heard <G
0191> no <G

3364> more <G 2089> at all <G 3364> in thee: for thy merchants
<G 1713> were the

great <G 3175> men of the earth <G 1093>; for by thy sorceries
<G 5331> were all

<G 3956> nations <G 1484> deceived <G 4105>.



:24 And in her was found <G 2147> the blood <G 0129> of
prophets <G 4396>, and

of saints <G 0040>, and of all <G 3956> that were slain <G 4969>
upon the earth

<G 1093>.
