Revelation 18:4-8
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.”
Revelation 18:4-8
English Standard Version
4 Then I heard another voice from heaven saying,
(A)“Come out of her, my people,
lest you take part in her sins,
lest you share in her plagues;
5 for (B)her sins are heaped high as heaven,
and (C)God has remembered her iniquities.
6 (D)Pay her back as she herself has paid back others,
and repay her (E)double for her deeds;
mix a double portion for her (F)in the cup she mixed.
7 (G)As she glorified herself and lived in luxury,
so give her a like measure of torment and mourning,
since in her heart she says,
(H)‘I sit as a queen,
I am no widow,
and mourning I shall never see.’
8 For this reason her plagues will come (I)in a single day,
death and mourning and famine,
and (J)she will be burned up with fire;
for (K)mighty is the Lord God who has judged her.”
