Revelation 18:5-8

5for her sins have 12piled up as high as heaven, and God has 3remembered her offenses. 64Pay her back even as she has paid, and 5give back to her double according to her deeds; in the 6cup which she has mixed, mix twice as much for her. 77To the extent that she glorified herself and 8lived luxuriously, to the same extent give her torment and mourning; for she says in her heart, ‘9I sit as a queen and I am not a widow, and will never see mourning.’ 8For this reason 10in one day her plagues will come, 11plague and mourning and famine, and she will be 12burned up with fire; for the Lord God who judges her 13is strong.
