Revelation 18:4-8
Holman Christian Standard Bible
4 Then I heard another voice from heaven:
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.
6 Pay her back the way she also paid,(C)
and double it according to her works.(D)
In the cup in which she mixed,(E)
mix a double portion for her.
7 As much as she glorified herself and lived luxuriously,
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.”(F)
8 For this reason her plagues will come in one day[b]—
death and grief and famine.
She will be burned up with fire,
because the Lord God who judges her is mighty.
