Revelation 18:4-8
New International Version
Warning to Escape Babylon’s Judgment
4 Then I heard another voice from heaven say:
“‘Come out of her, my people,’[a](A)
so that you will not share in her sins,
so that you will not receive any of her plagues;(B)
5 for her sins are piled up to heaven,(C)
and God has remembered(D) her crimes.
6 Give back to her as she has given;
pay her back(E) double(F) for what she has done.
Pour her a double portion from her own cup.(G)
7 Give her as much torment and grief
as the glory and luxury she gave herself.(H)
In her heart she boasts,
‘I sit enthroned as queen.
I am not a widow;[b]
I will never mourn.’(I)
8 Therefore in one day(J) her plagues will overtake her:
death, mourning and famine.
She will be consumed by fire,(K)
for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.

New Living Translation
4 Then I heard another voice calling from heaven,
“Come away from her, my people.
Do not take part in her sins,
or you will be punished with her.
5 For her sins are piled as high as heaven,
and God remembers her evil deeds.
6 Do to her as she has done to others.
Double her penalty[a] for all her evil deeds.
She brewed a cup of terror for others,
so brew twice as much[b] for her.
7 She glorified herself and lived in luxury,
so match it now with torment and sorrow.
She boasted in her heart,
‘I am queen on my throne.
I am no helpless widow,
and I have no reason to mourn.’
8 Therefore, these plagues will overtake her in a single day—
death and mourning and famine.
She will be completely consumed by fire,
for the Lord God who judges her is mighty.”
