Revelation 18:2-4
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

2 He called out with a mighty voice,

“Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great!
    It has become a dwelling place of demons,
a haunt of every foul spirit,
    a haunt of every foul bird,
    a haunt of every foul and hateful beast.[a](A)
3 For all the nations have fallen[b]
    from the wine of the wrath of her prostitution,
and the kings of the earth have engaged in sexual immorality[c] with her,
    and the merchants of the earth have grown rich from the power[d] of her luxury.”(B)

4 Then I heard another voice from heaven saying,

“Come out of her, my people,
    so that you do not take part in her sins
and so that you do not share in her plagues,(C)
