15. And he saith unto me, The waters which thou
sawest, where the whore sitteth, are peoples,
and multitudes, and nations, and tongues.
16. And the ten hornes which thou sawest upon
the beast, these shall hate the whore, and
shall make her desolate, and naked, and shall
eate her flesh, and burne her with fire.
17. For God hath put in their hearts to fulfill
His will, and to agree, and give their kingdome
unto the beast, until the words of God shall be
fulfilled.
18. And the woman which thou sawest, is that great
Citie which reigneth over the kings of the earth.
2 Babylon is fallen. 4 The people of
God commanded to depart out of her.
9 The Kings of the earth, 11 with
the Merchants and Mariners, lament
over her. 20 The Saints rejoyce for
the judgements of God upon her.
And after these things, I saw another
Angel come down from heaven, having great
power, and the earth was lightened by his
glory.
2. And he cryed mightily with a strong voyce,
saying, saying: Babylon the great is fallen,
is fallen, and is become the habitat of devils,
and the hold of every foule spirit, and a
cage of every uncleane and hateful bird.
3. For all nations have drunk of the sin of the
wrath of her fornication, and the Kings of
the earth have committed fornication with her, and
the Merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
4. And I heard another voice from heaven, saying,
come out of her, my people, that yee
be not
partakers of her sinnes, and that yee receive
not of her plagues:
5. For her sinnes have reached unto heaven, and
God hath remembered her iniquities.
6. Reward her even as she rewarded you, and
double unto her according to her works: in the
cup which she hath filled, fill to her double.
7. How much she hath glorified herself, and lived
deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her:
for she saith in her heart, I sit a Queen, and am
no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
8. Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death,
and mourning, and famine, and she shall be utterly
burnt with fire, for strong is the Lord God, who
judgeth her.
