Render to her as she herself has rendered,
    and repay her double for her deeds;
    mix a double draught for her in the cup she mixed.
As she glorified herself and lived luxuriously,
    so give her a like measure of torment and grief.

    pestilence and mourning and famine—
and she will be burned with fire;
    for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.’
