Revelation 18:20-24

New King James Version

^20 (A)“Rejoice over her, O heaven, and you ^[a]holy apostles and prophets, for ^(B)God has avenged you on her!”

Finality of Babylon’s Fall

²¹ Then a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and threw it into the sea, saying, ^(C)“Thus with violence the great city Babylon shall be thrown down, and ^(D)shall not be found anymore. ^22 (E)The sound of harpists, musicians, flutists, and trumpeters shall not be heard in you anymore. No craftsman of any craft shall be found in you anymore, and the sound of a millstone shall not be heard in you anymore. ^23 (F)The light of a lamp shall not shine in you anymore, ^(G)and the voice of bridegroom and bride shall not be heard in you anymore. For ^(H)your merchants were the great men of the earth, ^(I)for by your sorcery all the nations were deceived. ²⁴ And ^(J)in her was found the blood of prophets and saints, and of all who ^(K)were slain on the earth.”
