Revelation 18:19-21
New Matthew Bible
19 And they cast dust on their heads and cried out, weeping and wailing, and said, Alas, alas, that great city, wherein all who had ships in the sea were made rich by reason of her great wealth. For at one hour she is made desolate.
20 Rejoice over her, O heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets, for God has given your judgment on her.
21 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone and cast it into the sea, saying, With such violence shall that great city Babylon be cast down, and shall be found no more.
