66:018:012 The merchandise of gold, and silver, and precious stones, and
of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet,
and all thyine wood, and all manner vessels of ivory, and all
manner vessels of most precious wood, and of brass, and iron,
and marble,
66:018:013 And cinnamon, and odours, and ointments, and frankincense, and
wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and
sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.
66:018:014 And the fruits that thy soul lusted after are departed from
thee, and all things which were dainty and goodly are departed
from thee, and thou shalt find them no more at all.
66:018:015 The merchants of these things, which were made rich by her,
shall stand afar off for the fear of her torment, weeping and
wailing,
66:018:016 And saying, Alas, alas that great city, that was clothed in
fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and decked with gold, and
precious stones, and pearls!
66:018:017 For in one hour so great riches is come to nought. And every

66:018:020 Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and

66:018:021 And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and

66:018:022 And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and
trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no
craftsman, of whatsoever craft he be, shall be found any more

66:018:023 And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee;
and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be
heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great
men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations
deceived.
66:018:024 And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and
of all that were slain upon the earth.
66:019:001 And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in
