whore sitteth, are nations, and
multitudes, and heathen, and tongues.

And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast shall hate the whore, and shall make her desolate, and bare, and shall eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.

For God hath put it into their hearts to do his mind, and to do one mind, and to give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God should be finished.

And the woman which thou sawest is the great city, which hath dominion over the kings of the earth.
(Revelation)

Chapter 18
Of the fall and punishment of the antichrist empire.

1. And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his brightness.
2. And cried with a loud voice out of power, saying, She is fallen, she is fallen, Babylon the great, and is become a habitation of devils, and a hold of all unclean spirits, and a hold of all unclean and hostile birds.
3. For of the wine of the wrath of her fornication have all the heathen drunk; and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and her merchants have waxed rich by her great lust.
4. And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, that ye receive not of her plagues;
5. for their sins reach to heaven, and GOD remembers their iniquity.
6. Pay her even as she hath paid you, and make it double unto her according to her works: and with what cup she hath poured for you, pour it double unto her.
7. As much as she hath made herself glorious, and hath had her wantonness, so much giveth her anguish and sorrow. For she saith in her heart, I sit and am a queen, and shall not be a widow, neither shall I see sorrow.
8. Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and sorrow, and famine: she shall be burned with fire. For strong is God the LORD, which shall judge them.
9. And the kings of the earth shall weep over her, and mourn over her, which have trespassed against her, and wrought wickedness with her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning.
10. And shall stand afar off for fear of her torment, and shall say: Woe, woe, the great city Babylon, the strong city! In one hour is thy judgment come.
11. And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn for themselves, because no man buyeth their merchandise,
12. The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and pearls, and silk, and purple, and scarlet, and all manner of pinewood, and all manner of vessels of ivory, and all manner of vessels of precious wood, and of brass, and of iron, and of marble 13. And cinnamon, and thyme, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and bread rolls, and wheat, and cattle, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and dead bodies, and souls of men.
13. And the fruit which thy soul lusted after is departed from thee; and all that was perfect and glorious is departed from thee; and thou shalt find it no more.
14. The merchants of such merchandise as are made rich by it shall stand afar off for fear of their torment, weeping and wailing.
15. Saying, Woe, woe, that great city, which was clothed in silk, and purple, and scarlet, and overlaid with gold, and precious stones, and pearls!
16. For in one hour all these riches are wasted. And all the masters of the ships, and the company that work in the ships, and the mariners that work in the sea, shall stand afar off.
17. And when they saw the smoke of their burning, they cried out, saying: Who is like unto the great city?
18. And they cast dust upon their heads, and cried, and wept, and lamented, saying: Woe, woe!
    the great city, wherein were made rich all they that had ships in the sea, of their merchandise!
    For in one hour it is laid waste.
19. Rejoice over her, O heavens, and you holy apostles and prophets! For GOD has executed your judgment upon her.
20. And a strong angel took up a great stone for a millstone, and cast it into the sea, and said, Thus with a tempest shall that great city Babylon be cast down, and shall be found no more.
21. And the voice of singers, and of stringers, and of pipers, and of trumpeters, shall be heard no more in thee; neither shall any craftsman of any craft be found in thee any more; neither shall the voice of the mill be heard in thee any more;
22. And the light of the lamp shall shine no more in thee; neither shall the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride be heard any more in thee: for thy merchants were princes in the earth: for by thy sorceries are all the heathen perverted.
23. And the blood of the prophets and of the saints was found in it, and of all them that were slain upon the earth.
    (Revelation)

Chapter 19
Triumphal song of the elect concerning the execution of God’s judgment, concerning the great harlot.

1. After these things I heard a voice of great multitudes in heaven, saying: Hallelujah! Salvation and glory, honor and power be to God our Lord!
2. For true and righteous are his judgments, because he hath condemned the great whore, which corrupted the earth with her fornication, and hath avenged the blood of his servants at her hand.
3. And they said again, Alleluia. And the smoke goeth up for ever.
4. And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down, and worshipped GOD that sat upon the throne, saying: Amen Hallelujah!
5. And there came a voice from the throne, saying, Praise our God, all his servants, and them that fear him, both small and great.
6. And I heard a voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of great waters, and as the voice of mighty thunders, saying: Hallelujah! For the Almighty God has taken the kingdom.
7. Let us rejoice and be glad, and give him glory: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready.
8. And it was given unto her to be clothed in pure and beautiful silk. (And the silk is the righteousness of the saints.)
9. And he said unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the supper of the Lamb.
   And he said unto me, These are true words of GOD.
10. And I fell down before him at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, Behold, do it not: I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren, and of them that have the testimony of JEsu. Worship GOD! (But the testimony of JEsu is the spirit of prophecy).
11. And I saw heaven opened, and, behold, a white horse, and he that sat on him was called Faithful and True, judging and contending with righteousness.
12. And his eyes were as a flame of fire, and upon his head many crowns: and he had a name written, which no man knew but he himself.
13. And was clothed with a garment sprinkled with blood: and his name is called the word of God.
14. And after him followed the host of heaven upon white horses, clothed in white and pure silk.
15. And out of his mouth went a sharp sword, to smite the heathen therewith: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron. And he treadeth the winepress of the fierce wrath of the Almighty God.
16. And he hath a name written upon his garment, and upon his thigh, saying, A King of kings, and a Lord of lords.
17. And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying unto all the fowls that fly under heaven, Come and be gathered together unto the supper of the great God, 18. That ye should eat the flesh of kings, and of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of every free man, and of every bondman, both small and great.
18. And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies gathered together to make war with him that sat on the horse, and with his army.
19. And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought the signs before him, whereby he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped the image of the beast: and they were both cast alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone.
20. And the rest were slain with the sword of him that sat on the horse, which proceeded out of his mouth. And all the birds were filled with their flesh.
    (Revelation)

Chapter 20
Of the bound and dissolved dragon, of Gog and Magog, of the Last Judgement.

1. And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit, and a great chain in his hand.
2. And took hold of the dragon, that old serpent, which is the devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years.
3. And he cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and sealed the top thereof, that he should not deceive the heathen, until a thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little while.
4. And I saw chairs, and they sat thereon, and judgment was given unto them: and the souls of them that were beheaded for the testimony of JESUS, and for the word of GOD, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; these lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
5. And
