Revelation 18:18-24

Rotherham(i) 18 and they cried out, seeing the smoke of her burning, saying––What city is like unto the great city? 19 And they cast dust upon their heads, and cried out, weeping and grieving, saying––Alas! alas! the great city! Whereby were made rich all that had ships in the sea, by reason of her costliness,––that, in one hour, she hath been laid waste! 20 Be glad over her, thou heaven! And ye saints, and ye apostles, and ye prophets! For that God hath exacted your vindication from her. 21 And one mighty messenger lifted a stone, as it were a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying––Thus, with main force, shall be cast down, Babylon the great city,––and in nowise be found any more; 22 And sound of harp–singers, and musicians, and flute–players, and trumpeters,––in nowise be heard in thee any more; and any artisan [of any art], ––in nowise be found in thee any more; and sound of millstone,––in nowise be found in thee any more; 23 And light of lamp,––in nowise shine in thee any more; and voice of bridegroom and bride,––in nowise be heard in thee any more; because, thy merchants, were the great ones of the earth, because, with thy sorcery, were all the nations deceived: 24 And, in her, blood of prophets and saints, was found,––and of all who had been slain upon the earth.
