Revelation 18:2-5
2And he criedG2896 out with a mightyG2478 voiceG5456, sayingG3004, “12FallenG4098, fallenG4098 is BabylonG897 the greatG3173! She 3has becomeG1096 a dwellingG2732 placeG2732 of demonsG1140 and a 4prisonG5438 of everyG3956 5uncleanG169 spiritG4151, and a 6prisonG5438 of everyG3956 uncleanG169 and hatefulG3404 birdG3732. 3For allG3956 the nationsG1484 7have drunkG4095 of the 8wineG3631 of the 9passionG2372 of her immoralityG4202, and 10the kingsG935 of the earthG1093 have committedG4203 acts of immoralityG4203 with her, and the 11merchantsG1713 of the earthG1093 have becomeG4147 richG4147 by the 12wealthG1411 of her 1314sensualityG4764.”
4I heardG191 anotherG243 voiceG5456 from heavenG3772, sayingG3004, “15ComeG1831 out of her, my peopleG2992, soG2443 that you will not participateG4790 in her sinsG266 and receiveG2983 of her plaguesG4127; 5for her sinsG266 have 1617piledG2853 up as highG891 as heavenG3772, and GodG2316 has 18rememberedG3421 her iniquitiesG92.
