Revelation 18:4-8

4I heard another voice from heaven, saying, “1Come out of her, my people, so that you will not participate in her sins and receive any of her plagues; 5for her sins have 23piled up as high as heaven, and God has 4remembered her offenses. 65Pay her back even as she has paid, and 6give back to her double according to her deeds; in the 7cup which she has mixed, mix twice as much for her. 78To the extent that she glorified herself and 9lived luxuriously, to the same extent give her torment and mourning; for she says in her heart, ‘10I sit as a queen and I am not a widow, and will never see mourning.’ 8For this reason 11in one day her plagues will come, 12plague and mourning and famine, and she will be 13burned up with fire; for the Lord God who judges her 14is strong.
