In context
AI-assisted, sourcedRevelation 18:1-8Babylon is fallen
About Revelation 18An angel cries, "Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen," and a voice says, "Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues," for she boasted, "I sit a queen," and so "shall her plagues come in one day." Kings, merchants and seamen weep, "Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come," while heaven and the "holy apostles and prophets" are told to rejoice. A mighty angel casts a stone like a millstone into the sea, saying, "Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down," for "in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints."
