Revelation

Revelation 18:4–8

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.”
