Revelation 18:22-24
Living Bible
22 Never again will the sound of music be there—no more pianos, saxophones, and trumpets.[a] No industry of any kind will ever again exist there, and there will be no more milling of the grain. 23 Dark, dark will be her nights; not even a lamp in a window will ever be seen again. No more joyous wedding bells and happy voices of the bridegrooms and the brides. Her businessmen were known around the world, and she deceived all nations with her sorceries. 24 And she was responsible for the blood of all the martyred prophets and the saints.”

Revelation 18:22-24
New International Version
22 The music of harpists and musicians, pipers and trumpeters,
will never be heard in you again.(A)
No worker of any trade
will ever be found in you again.
The sound of a millstone
will never be heard in you again.(B)
23 The light of a lamp
will never shine in you again.
The voice of bridegroom and bride
will never be heard in you again.(C)
Your merchants were the world’s important people.(D)
By your magic spell(E) all the nations were led astray.
24 In her was found the blood of prophets and of God’s holy people,(F)
of all who have been slaughtered on the earth.”(G)
