Revelation 17

17 And one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and spoke with me, saying [[to me]],[fn] “Come, I will show you the judgment of the great prostitute who sits on [[the]][fn] many waters, 2 with her the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality, and the inhabitants of the earth were intoxicated with the wine of her sexual immorality.”

3 And he carried me away in the spirit into a wilderness. And I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast, full of blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns. 4 And the woman was clothed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, having a golden cup in her hand, filled with abominations and the impurities of her immorality. 5 And [[on the earth and]][fn] on her forehead a name was written, a mystery: “Babylon the great, the mother of prostitutes and of the abominations of the earth.”

6 And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the witnesses of Jesus. And I was greatly amazed when I saw her. 7 And the angel said to me, “Why are you amazed? I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and the ten horns.

8 “The beast that you saw was, and is not, and is about to rise from the abyss and go to destruction. And the inhabitants of the earth will be amazed, those whose {name}[fn] has not been written in the book of life from the foundation of the world, when they see the beast, because it was and is not and [[again]][fn] {will be present}.[fn]

9 “Here is the mind that has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman sits, and they are seven kings; 10 five have fallen, [[and]][fn] one is, the other has not yet come; and when he comes, he must remain for a little while.

11 “And the beast that was and is not, is himself [also][fn] an eighth and is of the seven, and he goes to destruction. 12 And the ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but they receive authority as kings with the beast for one hour. 13 These have one purpose, and {they give}[fn] their power and authority to the beast. 14 These will wage war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will conquer them, because he is Lord of lords and King of kings, and those with him are the called and chosen and faithful.”

15 And he said to me, “{The waters}[fn] that you saw, where the prostitute sits, are peoples and multitudes and nations and languages. 16 And the ten horns that you saw, {and}[fn] the beast, they will hate the prostitute and will make her desolate and [[they will make her]][fn] naked, and they will eat her flesh and will burn her up with fire. 17 For God has put it into their hearts to carry out his purpose [and to be of one mind,][fn] and to give their kingdom to the beast, until the words of God are fulfilled. 18 And the woman whom you saw is the great city, which reigns over the kings of the earth.”
