启示录 18
1 此后，我看见另有一位有大权柄的天使从天降下，地就因他的荣耀发光。
And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lighted with his glory.
2 他大声喊着说： 巴比伦大城倾倒了！倾倒了！ 成了鬼魔的住处 和各样污秽之灵的巢穴， 并各样污秽可憎之雀鸟的巢穴。
And he cried with a strong voice, saying: Babylon the great has fallen, has fallen, and has become the habitation of demons, and the haunt of every unclean spirit, and the resort of every unclean and hateful bird.
3 因为列国都被她邪淫大怒的酒倾倒了。 地上的君王与她行淫； 地上的客商因她奢华太过就发了财。
For she has made all nations drink of the maddening wine of her lewdness; and the kings of the earth have practiced lewdness with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich by the power of her voluptuousness.
4 我又听见从天上有声音说： 我的民哪，你们要从那城出来， 免得与她一同有罪，受她所受的灾殃；
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying: Come out of her, my people, lest you become partakers of her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues.
5 因她的罪恶滔天； 她的不义， 神已经想起来了。
For her sins reach even to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.
6 她怎样待人，也要怎样待她， 按她所行的加倍地报应她； 用她调酒的杯加倍地调给她喝。
Reward her as she has rewarded you, and render back to her double, according to her works: in the cup that she has mixed, mix for her double.
7 她怎样荣耀自己，怎样奢华， 也当叫她照样痛苦悲哀， 因她心里说： 我坐了皇后的位， 并不是寡妇， 决不至于悲哀。
As much glory and voluptuousness as she has given to herself, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she says in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
8 所以在一天之内， 她的灾殃要一齐来到， 就是死亡、悲哀、饥荒。 她又要被火烧尽了， 因为审判她的主 神大有能力。
Therefore, her plagues shall come in one day, death and mourning and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judges her.
9 地上的君王，素来与她行淫、一同奢华的，看见烧她的烟，就必为她哭泣哀号。
And the kings of the earth, who have practiced lewdness and lived voluptuously with her, shall weep and lament for her, when they see the smoke of her burning,
10 因怕她的痛苦，就远远地站着说：哀哉！哀哉！ 巴比伦大城，坚固的城啊， 一时之间你的刑罚就来到了。
standing far off for fear of her torment, saying: Alas, alas, that great city of Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour has your judgment come.
11 地上的客商也都为她哭泣悲哀，因为没有人再买他们的货物了；
And the merchants of the earth shall weep and lament over her, because no one buys their merchandise any more;
12 这货物就是金、银、宝石、珍珠、细麻布、紫色料、绸子、朱红色料、各样香木、各样象牙的器皿、各样极宝贵的木头，和铜、铁、汉白玉的器皿，
the merchandise of gold and silver and precious stones, and of pearls, and of fine linen and purple, and of silk and scarlet; and every kind of thyme wood, and every kind of vessel of ivory, and every kind of vessel of most costly wood, and of brass, and of iron, and of marble:
13 并肉桂、豆蔻、香料、香膏、乳香、酒、油、细面、麦子、牛、羊、车、马，和奴仆、人口。
and cinnamon and amomum and incense, and ointment and frankincense, and wine and oil, and fine flour and wheat, and beasts and sheep, and horses and chariots, and bodies and souls of men.
14 巴比伦哪，你所贪爱的果子离开了你； 你一切的珍馐美味 和华美的物件也从你中间毁灭， 决不能再见了。
And the fruits that your soul desired have departed from you; and all things that are dainty and sumptuous have perished from you, and you shall find them no more at all.
15 贩卖这些货物、借着她发了财的客商，因怕她的痛苦，就远远地站着哭泣悲哀，说：
Those who traded in these things, who were made rich by her, Shalt stand far off for fear of her torment, weeping and mourning and
16 哀哉！哀哉！这大城啊， 素常穿着细麻、 紫色、朱红色的衣服， 又用金子、宝石，和珍珠为妆饰。
saying: Alas, alas, that great city, that was clothed in fine linen and purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls! for in one hour, so great riches have been brought to ruin.
17 一时之间，这么大的富厚就归于无有了。 凡船主和坐船往各处去的，并众水手，连所有靠海为业的，都远远地站着，
And every master of a ship, and every one in ships, and sailors, and as many as trade by sea, stood far off,
18 看见烧她的烟，就喊着说：“有何城能比这大城呢？”
and cried, when they saw the smoke of her burning, saying: What city is like the great city?
19 他们又把尘土撒在头上，哭泣悲哀，喊着说： 哀哉！哀哉！这大城啊。 凡有船在海中的，都因她的珍宝成了富足！ 她在一时之间就成了荒场！
And they threw dust on their heads, and cried, weeping and mourning and saying: Alas, alas, that great city, by which all that had ships in the sea became rich by means of costly merchandise! for in one hour she is made desolate.
20 天哪，众圣徒、众使徒、众先知啊， 你们都要因她欢喜， 因为 神已经在她身上伸了你们的冤。
Rejoice over her, O heaven, and you saints and apostles and prophets: for God has avenged you on her.
21 有一位大力的天使举起一块石头，好像大磨石，扔在海里，说： 巴比伦大城也必这样猛力地被扔下去， 决不能再见了。
And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and threw it into the sea, saying: Thus, with violence shall Babylon, that great city, be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.
22 弹琴、作乐、吹笛、吹号的声音， 在你中间决不能再听见； 各行手艺人在你中间决不能再遇见； 推磨的声音在你中间决不能再听见；
And the voice of harpers and musicians, and of pipers and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in you: and no artist of any art whatever, shall be found any more in you: and the sound of the millstone shall be heard no more in you:
23 灯光在你中间决不能再照耀； 新郎和新妇的声音，在你中间决不能再听见。 你的客商原来是地上的尊贵人； 万国也被你的邪术迷惑了。
and the light of a lamp shall shine no more in you: and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more in you: for your merchants were the great men of the earth: for by your sorcery were all nations deceived.
24 先知和圣徒，并地上一切被杀之人的血，都在这城里看见了。
And in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.
