And he cried out with a mighty voice, saying, “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She has become a dwelling place of demons and a prison of every unclean spirit, and a prison of every unclean and hateful bird.
— Пала, пала великая блудница Вавилон120 и стала жилищем демонов, пристанищем для всякого нечистого духа и всякой нечистой и мерзкой птицы.121 Все народы пили доводящее до безумия вино ее разврата.
“For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the passion of her immorality, and the kings of the earth have committed acts of immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich by the wealth of her sensuality.”
Сделайте ей то же, что она сделала другим, и отплатите ей вдвойне за ее дела. В той самой чаше, в которой она замешивала свое вино, замешайте ей напиток двойной крепости.
“To the degree that she glorified herself and lived sensuously, to the same degree give her torment and mourning; for she says in her heart, ‘I SIT as A QUEEN AND I AM NOT A WIDOW, and will never see mourning.’
Доставьте ей столько горя и страданий, сколько она позволяла себе славы и роскоши, потому что она хвалится в своем сердце: «Я не какая-нибудь вдова! Я сижу как царица! Я никогда не буду скорбеть!»
“For this reason in one day her plagues will come, pestilence and mourning and famine, and she will be burned up with fire; for the Lord God who judges her is strong.
“And the kings of the earth, who committed acts of immorality and lived sensuously with her, will weep and lament over her when they see the smoke of her burning,
standing at a distance because of the fear of her torment, saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, Babylon, the strong city! For in one hour your judgment has come.’

for in one hour such great wealth has been laid waste!’ And every shipmaster and every passenger and sailor, and as many as make their living by the sea, stood at a distance,
“And they threw dust on their heads and were crying out, weeping and mourning, saying, ‘Woe, woe, the great city, in which all who had ships at sea became rich by her wealth, for in one hour she has been laid waste!’
Then a strong angel took up a stone like a great millstone and threw it into the sea, saying, “So will Babylon, the great city, be thrown down with violence, and will not be found any longer.
“And the sound of harpists and musicians and flute-players and trumpeters will not be heard in you any longer; and no craftsman of any craft will be found in you any longer; and the sound of a mill will not be heard in you any longer;
Никогда уже в тебе не будет слышно голоса певцов, музыки арфистов, флейтистов и трубачей, никогда уже в тебе не отыщутся ремесленники, каким бы ремеслом они ни занимались, никогда уже не будет слышно в тебе шума мельничных жерновов.
and the light of a lamp will not shine in you any longer; and the voice of the bridegroom and bride will not be heard in you any longer; for your merchants were the great men of the earth, because all the nations were deceived by your sorcery.
Никогда уже не будет гореть в тебе свет светильника, не будет слышно голосов жениха и невесты. Твои купцы были господами на земле, и все народы были обмануты твоим колдовством.
