whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more in thee: and
the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more in thee:
23. And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee:
and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard
no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of
the earth: for thy sorceries were all nations deceived.
24. And in her was found the blood of the prophets, and of saints,
and of all that were slain upon the earth.
1 God is praised in heaven for judging the
great whore, and avenging the blood of his
Saints. 7 The marriage of the Lambe. 20 The
Angel will not be worshipped. 17 The foules
called to the great slaughter.
And after these things I heard a great voice of
much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia:
Salvation, and glory, and honour,and power,
unto the Lord our God:
2. For true and righteous are his judgements: for he
hath judged the great whore, which did corrupt the earth
with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of
his servants at her hand.
3. And again they said, Alleluia. And her smoke rose
up for ever and ever.
4. And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts
fell down and worshipped God that sat on the throne,
saying, Amen: Alleluia.
5. And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise
our God, all ye his servants, and praise ye that fear
him, both small and great.
6. And I heard as it were the voice of a great
multitude,and as the voice of many
waters, and as the voice of
mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for
the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
7. Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him,
for the marriage of the Lambe is come, and his wife has
made herself ready.
8. And to her it was fiven that she should be arrayed in
fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the
righteousness of Saints.
9. And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are
called unto the marriage supper of the Lambe. And he saith
unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
10. And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said
unto me, see thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant,
and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus:
worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit
of prophesy.
