20 “Rejoice over her, O heaven, you saints, apostles, and prophets; for God has judged your judgment on her.” 21 A mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and cast it into the sea, saying, “Thus with violence will Babylon, the great city, be thrown down, and will be found no more at all. 22 The voice of harpists, minstrels, flute players, and trumpeters will be heard no more at all in you. No craftsman, of whatever craft, will be found any more at all in you. The sound of a mill will be heard no more at all in you. 23 The light of a lamp will shine no more at all in you. The voice of the bridegroom and of the bride will be heard no more at all in you; for your merchants were the princes of the earth; for with your sorcery all the nations were deceived. 24 In her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all who have been slain on the earth.”

20 (A)Rejoice over her, O heaven,
    and you saints and (B)apostles and prophets,
for (C)God has given judgment for you against her!”

21 Then (D)a mighty angel (E)took up a stone like a great millstone and threw it into the sea, saying,

“So will Babylon (F)the great city be thrown down with violence,
    and will be found no more;
22 and (G)the sound of harpists and musicians, of flute players and trumpeters,
    will be heard in you no more,
and a craftsman of any craft
    will be found in you no more,
and (H)the sound of the mill
    will be heard in you no more,
23 and the light of a lamp
    will shine in you no more,
and (I)the voice of bridegroom and bride
    will be heard in you no more,
for (J)your merchants were the great ones of the earth,
    and all nations were deceived (K)by your sorcery.
24 And (L)in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints,
    and of (M)all who have been slain on earth.”
