come
down from
heaven, having great power;
and the earth was lightened with
his glory .
And after these things I saw another messenger
coming
down out
of
the
heaven, having great authority,
and the earth was lightened from
his glory ,
And he cried
mightily
with
a strong
voice, saying, Babylon the great is
fallen
, is
fallen,
and is
become
the
habitation of devils
, and the
hold of every foul
spirit, and a cage
of every unclean and hateful bird .
and he did
cry
in
might
--
a great
voice, saying, `Fall,
fall
did
Babylon the great, and she
became
a
habitation of demons
, and a
hold of every unclean
spirit, and a hold
of every unclean and hateful bird ,
For
all
nations
have
drunk
of the wine 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
.
because
of the wine of the wrath of her whoredom
have
all
the
nations
drunk
, and the kings of the earth with her did
commit
whoredom
, and merchants of the earth from
the power
of her revel
were
made
rich
.
And I heard another voice from
heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be
not partakers
of
her sins, and that ye receive
not of her plagues .
And I heard another voice out
of
the
heaven, saying, `
Come forth
out of her, My people, that ye may
not partake
with
her sins, and that ye may
not receive
of her plagues ,
For
her sins have
reached
unto heaven, and God hath
remembered
her iniquities
.
because
her sins did
follow
--
unto the
heaven, and God did
remember
her unrighteousness
.
Reward
her even
as she rewarded
you, and double unto
her double
according to her works :
in the cup which
she hath
filled
fill
to her double.

to
her as also
she did
render
to
you, and double to
her doubles
according to her works ;
in the cup that
she did
mingle
mingle
to her double.
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.
`As
much as
she did
glorify
herself and did
revel
, so much torment and sorrow give to
her ,
because
in her heart she
saith
, I sit a queen, and a
widow I
am
not
, and sorrow
I
shall not
see ;
Therefore
shall
her
plagues
come
in one day, death, and mourning
, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with
fire:
for
strong is the Lord God who judgeth
her .
because
of
this,
in one day, shall
come
her
plagues,
death, and sorrow
, and famine; and in
fire
she shall be utterly burned ,
because
strong `
is '
the Lord God who is
judging
her ;
And the kings of the earth, who have
committed
fornication
and
lived
deliciously
with her ,
shall
bewail
her,
and lament
for
her
, when they shall
see the smoke of her burning,
and weep
over
her,
and
smite
themselves
for
her,
shall
the kings of the earth, who with her did
commit
whoredom
and did
revel
, when they may
see the smoke of her burning,
Standing
afar off
for
the fear of her torment, saying, Alas
, alas
that
great city Babylon, that
mighty
city! for
in one hour is
thy judgment come
.

stood
because
of
the fear of her torment, saying, Wo

the
great city !

city! because

man
buyeth
their merchandise
any more :
