Come out of her, my people,
so that you will not share in her sins^(A)
or receive any of her plagues.
⁵ For her sins are piled up^[a] to heaven,^(B)
and God has remembered her crimes.^(C)
6 Pay her back the way she also paid,^(D)
and double it according to her works.^(E)
In the cup in which she mixed,^(F)
mix a double portion for her.
⁷ As much as she glorified herself and indulged her sensual and excessive ways,
give her that much torment and grief.
For she says in her heart,
“I sit as a queen;
I am not a widow,
and I will never see grief.”^(G)
8 For this reason her plagues will come in just one day—
death and grief and famine.^(H)
She will be burned up with fire,^(I)
because the Lord God who judges^(J) her is mighty.^(K)
