Revelation

Revelation 18:20–21

²⁰Rejoice over her, O heaven,

and you saints and apostles and prophets,

because God has pronounced for you

His judgment against her.

²¹Then a mighty angel picked up a stone the size of a great millstone and cast it into the sea, saying:

“With such violence

the great city of Babylon will be cast down,

never to be seen again.
