Revelation 18:15-19

15The 1merchants of 2these things, who became rich from her, will 3stand at a distance because of the fear of her torment, weeping and mourning,

16saying, ‘4Woe, woe, 5the great city, she who 6was clothed in fine linen and purple and scarlet, and 7adorned with gold, precious 8stones, and pearls;

17for in 9one hour such great wealth has been laid 10waste!’ And 11every shipmaster and every 12passenger and sailor, and all who 13make their living by the sea, 14stood at a distance,

18and were 15crying out as they 16saw the smoke of her burning, saying, ‘17What city is like 18the great city?’

19And they threw 19dust on their heads and were crying out, weeping and mourning, saying, ‘20Woe, woe, the great city, in which all who had ships at sea 21became rich from her prosperity, for in 22one hour she has been laid 23waste!’
