And I heard another voice from heaven say:

Come out of her, my people,
    so that you will not share in her sins,
    and so that you will not receive any of her plagues,
because her sins have reached heaven
    and God has remembered her crimes.
Pay her back even as she has paid.
Pay her back double for what she has done.
In the cup that she mixed, mix her a double portion.
As much glory and luxury as she gave herself,
give that much torture and grief to her,
    because in her heart she says:
            I sit as a queen,
            I am not a widow, and
            I will never mourn.
For this reason her plagues will come on a single day:
death, mourning, and famine,
and she will be burned in fire,
    because the Lord God, who judges her, is powerful.
