And I heard the altar cry, "Even so, Lord God almighty: true and just are thy sentences of doom."

Then came one of the seven angels with the seven plagues and spoke to me, saying, "Come and I will show you the doom of the great Harlot who is seated on many waters,

Render to her what she rendered to others, aye, double the doom for all she has done; mix her the draught double in the cup she mixed for others.

for fear of her torture they will stand far off, crying, 'Woe and alas, thou great city! thou strong city of Babylon! In one brief hour thy doom has come.'

True and just are his sentences of doom; he has doomed the great Harlot who destroyed earth with her vice, he has avenged on her the blood of his servants."
