Then I heard another voice from heaven saying,

“Come out of her, my people,
    so that you do not take part in her sins
and so that you do not share in her plagues,(A)
for her sins are heaped high as heaven,
    and God has remembered her iniquities.(B)
Render to her as she herself has rendered,
    and repay her double for her deeds;
    mix a double dose for her in the cup she mixed.(C)
As she glorified herself and lived luxuriously,
    so give her a like measure of torment and grief.
Since in her heart she says,
    ‘I rule as a queen;
I am no widow,
    and I will never see grief,’(D)
therefore her plagues will come in a single day—
    pestilence and mourning and famine—
and she will be burned with fire,
    for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.”(E)
