Lament Over Babylon The Great

6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she has filled, fill to her double. 7 So much as she has glorified herself, and lived luxuriously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she says in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. 8 Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judges her.
