15And he saidG3004 to me, “The 1watersG5204 whichG3739 you sawG3708 whereG3757 the harlotG4204 sitsG2521, are 2peoplesG2992 and multitudesG3793 and nationsG1484 and tonguesG1100.
16And the 3tenG1176 hornsG2768 whichG3739 you sawG3708, and the beastG2342, theseG3778 will hateG3404 the harlotG4204 and will makeG4160 her 4desolateG2049 and 5nakedG1131, and will 6eatG2068 her fleshG4561 and will 7burnG2618 her up with fireG4442.
17For 8GodG2316 has putG1325 it in their heartsG2588 to executeG4160 His 9purposeG1106 10by 11havingG4160 a commonG1520 purposeG1106, and by givingG1325 their kingdomG932 to the beastG2342, untilG891 the 12wordsG3056 of GodG2316 will be fulfilledG5055.
18The womanG1135 whomG3739 you sawG3708 is 13the greatG3173 cityG4172, which 14reignsG2192G932 overG1909 the kingsG935 of the earthG1093.”
