And I gave her time that she might repent of her fornication; and she repented not.

Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them committing adultery with her into great pressure, except they repent of their works.

And her children will I kill in death; and all the churches shall know that I am he searching the reins and hearts: and I will give to you each according to our works.

After these things I saw, and, behold, a door opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard as of a trumpet speaking with me; saying, Come up here, and I will show thee what things must be after these.

And the stars of heaven fell to the earth, as a fig tree casts her untimely figs, shaken by a great wind.

And they heard a great voice from heaven saying to them, Come up here. And they went up to heaven in the cloud; and their enemies beheld them.

And a great sign was seen in heaven; a woman surrounded by the sun, and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown of twelve stars:

And his tail draws the third of the stars of heaven, and he cast them into the earth: and the dragon stood before the woman about to bring forth, that when she should bring forth he might devour her child.

And she brought forth a son, a male, who is about to rule all nations with an iron rod: and her child was snatched up to God, and his throne.

And the woman fled into the desert where she has a place prepared from God, that they might nourish her there a thousand two hundred and sixty days.

And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly to the desert, to her place, where she is nourished there a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent.

And the serpent cast after the woman water out of his mouth as a river, that he might make her torn away by a river.

And the earth helped the woman, and the earth opened her mouth, and swallowed down the river which the dragon cast out of his mouth.

And the dragon was angry at the woman, and went out to make war with the rest of her seed, those keeping the commands of God, and having the testimony of Jesus Christ.

If any bring together to captivity he shall proceed into captivity: if any shall kill with sword, he shall be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and faith of the holy.

Here is wisdom. Let him having intelligence calculate the number of the wild beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number Six hundred and sixty-six.

And another angel followed, saying, She fell, Babylon fell, the great city, for all nations has she given to drink of the wine of the wrath of her fornication.

Here is the patience of the holy: here they keeping the commands of God, and the faith of Jesus.

And another angel came forth from the altar, having power over fire; and he called with a great cry to him having the sharp sickle, saying, Send thy sharp sickle, and harvest the grapes of the vineyard of the earth; for her grapes were fully ripe.

And the great city was in three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon was remembered before God, to give her the cup of the wine of the wrath of his anger.

With whom the kings of the earth were debauched, and they dwelling upon the earth were intoxicated from the wine of her harlotry.

And the woman surrounded with purple and scarlet, and covered with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full of abominations and the impurity of her harlotry:

And upon her forehead a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, MOTHER OF HARLOTS, AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.

And I saw the woman intoxicated from the blood of the holy, and from the blood of the witnesses of Jesus: and wondered, seeing her, with great wonder.

And the angel said to me, Why didst thou wonder? I will tell thee the mystery of the woman, and of the wild beast lifting her up, having seven heads and ten horns.

Here the mind having wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, where the woman sits upon them.

And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the wild beast, these shall hate the harlot, and shall make her desolate and naked, and they shall eat her flesh, and shall burn her in fire.

For of the wrath of the wine of her fornication have all nations drunk, and the kings of the earth were debauched with her, and the wholesale merchants of the earth were rich from the power of her luxury.

And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye partake not of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

For her sins were followed even to heaven, and God remembered her injustices.

Give back to her as also she gave back to you, and double to her double things according to her works: in the cup in which she mixed, mix to her double.

As much as she glorified herself, and led an insolent life, give her so much torture and grief: for in her heart she says, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and I should see no grief.

Therefore in one day shall her blows come, death, and grief, and famine; and she shall be burned down in fire: for strong the Lord God judging her.

And weep for her, and lament over her, shall the kings of the earth having been debauched with her, and having led an insolent life, when they see the smoke of her burning,

Standing from far off for fear of her torture, saying, Woe, woe, the great city Babylon, the strong city! for in one hour thy judgment came.

And the wholesale merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for their cargo will none purchase more:

The wholesale merchants of these things, having been rich from her, shall stand from far off for fear of her torture, weeping and mourning,

And cried, seeing the smoke of her burning, saying, What like the great city!

And they cast earth upon their heads, and cried, weeping and mourning, saying, Woe, woe, the great city, in which all having ships in the sea were rich by her value! for in one hour was she rendered a desert.

Rejoice over her, O heaven, and the holy sent, and the prophets; for God judged your judgment of her.

And in her was found the blood of the prophets, and of the holy, and of all those slain upon the earth.

For true and just his judgments: for he judged the great harlot, who corrupted the earth with her harlotry, and he avenged the blood of his servants from her hand.

And the second time they said, Alleluia. And her smoke goes up for ever and ever.

And it was given her that she put on fine linen, pure and shining: for fine linen is the justification of the holy.

And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

Having the glory of God: and her luminary like a most precious stone, as jasper stone, shining like crystal;

And he speaking with me had a golden reed that he might measure the city, and her gates, and her wall.

And the city lies quadrangular, and her length is so large, such also the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, at twelve thousand stadia. Her length, breadth, and height are equal.

And he measured her wall, an hundred forty-four cubits, the measure of a man, which is the angel.

And the interior construction of her wall was a jasper: and the city pure gold, like pure crystal.

And a temple saw I not in her: for the Lord God, the Omnipotent Ruler, is the temple and the Lamb

And the city has no need of the sun, nor of the moon, that they shine in her: for the glory of God enlightened her, and her light the Lamb.

And the nations of the saved shall walk about in her light: and the kings of the earth shall bring their glory and honour into her.

And her gates should not be shut by day: for no night shall be there.

And they shall bring the glory and the honour of the nations into her.

And there came not into her anything common, and any doing abomination, and a lie: but they written in the book of life of the Lamb.

In the midst of her broad way and of the river, hence and thence, the tree of life, making twelve fruits, in a month each one returning its fruit: and the leaves of the tree for the cure of the nations.

And there shall be no more curse: and the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in her; and his servants shall serve him:
