Revelation 18:3-7
3For allG3956 the nationsG1484 1have drunkG4095 of the 2wineG3631 of the 3passionG2372 of her immoralityG4202, and 4the kingsG935 of the earthG1093 have committedG4203 acts of immoralityG4203 with her, and the 5merchantsG1713 of the earthG1093 have becomeG4147 richG4147 by the 6wealthG1411 of her 78sensualityG4764.”
4I heardG191 anotherG243 voiceG5456 from heavenG3772, sayingG3004, “9ComeG1831 out of her, my peopleG2992, soG2443 that you will not participateG4790 in her sinsG266 and receiveG2983 of her plaguesG4127; 5for her sinsG266 have 1011piledG2853 up as highG891 as heavenG3772, and GodG2316 has 12rememberedG3421 her iniquitiesG92. 613PayG591 her backG591 evenG2532 as she has paidG591, and 14giveG1363 backG1363 to her doubleG1363G1362 accordingG2596 to her deedsG2041; in the 15cupG4221 whichG3739 she has mixedG2767, mixG2767 twiceG1362 as muchG1362 for her. 716To the degreeG3745 that she glorifiedG1392 herselfG846 and 17livedG4763 18sensuouslyG4763, to the sameG5118 degreeG5118 giveG1325 her tormentG929 and mourningG3997; for she saysG3004 in her heartG2588, ‘19I sitG2521 as a queenG938 and I amG1510 not a widowG5503, and will neverG3756 seeG3708 mourningG3997.’
