1 After the vision of these things, I saw another angel coming down from heaven. This angel had great power, and his glory made the earth bright.
2 He shouted in a powerful voice:“Ruined, ruined is the great city of Babylon!She has become a home for demonsand a prison for every evil spirit,and a prison for every unclean bird and unclean beast.
3 She has been ruined, because all the peoples of the earthhave drunk the wine of the desire of her sexual sin.She has been ruined also because the kings of the earthhave sinned sexually with her,and the merchants of the earthhave grown rich from the great wealth of her luxury.”
4 Then I heard another voice from heaven saying:“Come out of that city, my people,so that you will not share in her sins,so that you will not receive the disasters that will come to her.
