CHAPTER 16
Revelation 16:1
1 And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels,
Go your ways, and pour out the vials  of the wrath of God upon the earth.
Revelation 16:2
2 And the first went, and poured out his vial upon the earth; and there
fell a noisome and  grievous sore upon the men which had the mark of the
beast, and upon them which worshipped his image. Revelation 16:3
3 And the second angel poured out his vial upon the sea; and it became as
the blood of a dead  man: and every living soul died in the sea. Revelation
16:4
4 And the third angel poured out his vial upon the rivers and fountains of
waters; and they became  blood.
Revelation 16:5
5 And I heard the angel of the waters say, Thou art righteous, O Lord,
which art, and wast, and  shalt be, because thou hast judged thus.
Revelation 16:6
6 For they have shed the blood of saints and prophets, and thou hast given
them blood to drink; for they are  worthy. Revelation 16:7
7 And I heard another out of the altar say, Even so, Lord God Almighty,
true and righteous  are thy judgments.
Revelation 16:8
8 And the fourth angel poured out his vial upon the sun; and power was
given unto him to scorch men  with fire.
Revelation 16:9
9 And men were scorched with great heat, and blasphemed the name of God,
which hath power over  these plagues: and they repented not to give him
glory.
Revelation 16:10
10 And the fifth angel poured out his vial upon the seat of the beast; and
his kingdom was  full of darkness; and they gnawed their tongues for pain,
Revelation 16:11
11 And blasphemed the God of heaven because of their pains and their sores,
and repented not  of their deeds.
Revelation 16:12
12 And the sixth angel poured out his vial upon the great river Euphrates;
and the water thereof  was dried up, that the way of the kings of the east
might be prepared.
Revelation 16:13
13 And I saw three unclean spirits like frogs come out of the mouth of the
dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the
false prophet.
Revelation 16:14
14 For they are the spirits of devils, working miracles, which go forth
unto the kings of the earth and of the whole world, to gather them to the
battle of that great day of God Almighty.
Revelation 16:15
15 Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his
garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame. Revelation 16:16
16 And he gathered them together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon.
Revelation 16:17
17 And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a
great voice out of  the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is
done.
Revelation 16:18
18 And there were voices, and thunders, and lightnings; and there was a
great earthquake, such as was  not since men were upon the earth, so mighty
an earthquake, and so great.
Revelation 16:19
19 And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the
nations fell: and great  Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give
unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath. Revelation
16:20
20 And every island fled away, and the mountains were not found. Revelation 16:21
21 And there fell upon men a great hail out of heaven, every stone about
the weight of a talent: and men blasphemed God because of the plague of the
hail;
for the plague thereof was exceeding great. CHAPTER 17
Revelation 17:1
1 And there came one of the seven angels which had the seven vials, and
talked with  me, saying unto me, Come hither; I will shew unto thee the
judgment of the great whore that sitteth upon many waters: Revelation 17:2
2 With whom the kings of the earth have committed fornication, and the
inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her
fornication.
Revelation 17:3
3 So he carried me away in the spirit into the wilderness: and I saw a
woman sit upon  a scarlet coloured beast, full of names of blasphemy,
having seven heads and ten horns.
Revelation 17:4
4 And the woman was arrayed in purple and scarlet colour, and decked with
gold and precious stones  and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand full
of abominations and filthiness of her fornication: Revelation 17:5
5 And upon her forehead was a name written, MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE
MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH. Revelation 17:6
6 And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the
blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and  when I saw her, I wondered with great
admiration.
Revelation 17:7
7 And the angel said unto me, Wherefore didst thou marvel? I will tell thee
the mystery of the woman, and of the beast  that carrieth her, which hath
the
seven heads and ten horns.
Revelation 17:8
8 The beast that thou sawest was, and is not; and shall ascend out of the
bottomless pit, and  go into perdition: and they that dwell on the earth
shall wonder, whose names were not written in the book of life from the
foundation of the world, when they behold the beast that was, # and is not,
and yet is.
Revelation 17:9
9 And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven
mountains, on which the woman sitteth. Revelation 17:10
10 And there are seven kings: five are fallen, and one is, and the other is
not yet come; and when he cometh, he must continue a short space.
Revelation 17:11
11 And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is  of
the seven, and goeth into perdition.
Revelation 17:12
12 And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received
no kingdom as yet;  but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.
Revelation 17:13
13 These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
Revelation 17:14
14 These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them:
for he is Lord of lords, and  King of kings: and they that are with him are
called, and chosen, and faithful.
Revelation 17:15
15 And he saith unto me, The waters which thou sawest, where the whore
sitteth, are peoples, and multitudes,  and nations, and tongues. Revelation
17:16
16 And the ten horns which thou sawest upon the beast, these shall hate the
whore, and shall make her  desolate and naked, and shall eat her flesh, and
burn her with fire.
Revelation 17:17
17 For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and
give  their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be
fulfilled.
Revelation 17:18
18 And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over
the kings of the earth.
CHAPTER 18
Revelation 18:1
1 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having
great power; and  the earth was lightened with his glory. Revelation 18:2
2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is
fallen, is fallen, and is become  the habitation of devils, and the hold of
every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird. Revelation
18:3
3 For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication,
and the kings of the earth have committed fornication  with her, and the
merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her
delicacies.
Revelation 18:4
4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my
people, that  ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of
her plagues.
Revelation 18:5
5 For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
Revelation 18:6
6 Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according
to her  works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.
Revelation 18:7
7 How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much
torment and sorrow give her: for she saith  in her heart, I sit a queen,
and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow. Revelation 18:8
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 judgeth her.
Revelation 18:9
9 And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived
deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament  for her, when they
shall see the smoke of her burning,
Revelation 18:10
10 Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas, that
great city Babylon,  that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment
come. Revelation 18:11
11 And the merchants of the earth shall weep and mourn over her; for no man
buyeth their merchandise  any more: Revelation 18:12
12 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and of pearls,
and fine linen, and purple,  and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood,
and all manner vessels of ivory, and all manner vessels of most precious
wood, and of brass, and iron, and marble, Revelation 18:13
13 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and wine, and
oil, and  fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and
chariots, and slaves, and souls of men. Revelation 18:14
14 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from thee, and
all things which were dainty and  goodly are departed from thee, and thou
shalt find them no more at all.
Revelation 18:15
15 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her, shall stand
afar off for the fear of her torment,  weeping and wailing, Revelation
18:16
16 And saying, Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen,
and purple, and scarlet, and  decked with gold, and precious stones, and
pearls!
Revelation 18:17
17 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every shipmaster,
and all the company in  ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea,
stood afar off,
Revelation 18:18
18 And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying, What city is
like unto this great city!
Revelation 18:19
19 And they cast dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and wailing,
saying, Alas,  alas, that great city, wherein were made rich all that had
ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made
desolate.
Revelation 18:20
20 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for
God hath avenged you on her.
Revelation 18:21
21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it
into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be
thrown down, and shall be found no more at all. Revelation 18:22
22 And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters,
shall be heard no more at all in  thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever
craft he be, shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a millstone
shall be heard no more at all in thee; Revelation 18:23
23 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the
voice of the bridegroom and of the bride  shall be heard no more at all in
thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy
sorceries were all nations deceived. Revelation 18:24
24 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all
that were slain upon the earth.
