Revelation 18:3-19

for after drinking the wine of the passion of her immorality all the heathen have fallen; the kings of the earth have joined in her idolatry, and the traders of the earth have grown rich from her excessive luxury!" Then I heard another voice from heaven say, "Come out of her, my people, so that you may not share in her sins, and suffer from her plagues. For her sins are piled up to the sky, and God has remembered her crimes. read more.
Pay her back in her own coin, and give her double for what she has done. In the cup she mixed for others, mix her a double draught. The more she has given herself to pride and luxury the more you must give her torture and grief. Because she says to herself, 'I sit on a throne; I am not a widow, I shall never have any sorrow,' her plagues will overtake her in one day, death, grief, and famine, and she will be burned up with fire; for the Lord God who has judged her is mighty. The kings of the earth who have joined in her idolatry and luxury will weep and lament over her when they see the smoke from her burning. They will stand a long way off for fear of her torture and say, 'Alas! Alas for the great city, for Babylon the mighty city, for in a single hour your judgment has overtaken you!' The merchants of the earth will weep and mourn over her, for no one will buy their cargoes any more??12 cargoes of gold, silver, precious stones, pearls, fine linen, purple, silk, and scarlet, all kinds of citron wood, all kinds of objects of ivory and costly wood, bronze, iron, and marble, and cinnamon, spices, incense, perfume, frankincense, wine, olive oil, flour, wheat, cattle, sheep, horses, carriages, slaves??nd human lives! The fruit of your soul's desire is gone, your luxury and splendor have perished, and people will never find them again. The dealers in these things, who had grown rich from their trade with her, for fear of her torture will stand a long way off, weeping and mourning, and say, 'Alas! Alas for the great city that was dressed in fine linen, purple, and scarlet, and glittered with gold, precious stones, and pearls, for in a single hour this vast wealth has been destroyed!' All navigators and all who travel by sea, sailors and sea-faring men, stood a long way off and cried out when they saw the smoke from her burning, 'What city was like the great city?' They threw dust on their heads and wept and mourned, crying out, 'Alas! Alas for the great city, where all who had ships on the sea grew rich through her extravagance! For in a single hour she has been destroyed!'
