The Fall of Babylon the Great

18 After this I saw another angel with great authority coming down from heaven,^(A) and the earth was illuminated by his splendor. ²He called out in a mighty voice:

It has fallen,^[a]

She has become a home for demons,
a haunt for every unclean spirit,
a haunt for every unclean bird,
and a haunt^[b] for every unclean and despicable beast.^[c]^(C)
