Revelation 18:21-23

21Then 1a 2strong angel 3picked up a stone like a great millstone and threw it into the sea, saying, “So will Babylon, 4the great city, be thrown down with violence, and 5will never be found again.

22And 6the sound of harpists, musicians, flute players, and trumpeters will never be heard in you again; and no craftsman of any craft will ever be found in you again; and the 7sound of a mill will never be heard in you again;

23and the light of a lamp will never shine in you again; and the 8voice of the groom and bride will never be heard in you again; for your 9merchants were the powerful people of the earth, because all the nations were deceived 10by your witchcraft.
