Revelation

Revelation 18:3–8

³All the nations have drunk^c the wine

of the passion of her immorality.

The kings of the earth were immoral with her,

and the merchants of the earth have grown wealthy

from the extravagance of her luxury.”

⁴Then I heard another voice from heaven say:

“Come out of her, My people,^d

so that you will not share in her sins

or contract any of her plagues.

⁵For her sins are piled up to heaven,

and God has remembered her iniquities.

⁶Give back to her as she has done to others;

pay her back double for what she has done;

mix her a double portion in her own cup.

⁷As much as she has glorified herself and lived in luxury,

give her the same measure of torment and grief.

In her heart she says, ‘I sit as queen;

I am not a widow and will never see grief.’

⁸Therefore her plagues will come in one day —

death and grief and famine —

and she will be consumed by fire,

for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.”
