Revelation 18:5-7
1599 Geneva Bible
5 For her sins are [a]come up into heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
6 [b]Reward her, even as she hath rewarded you, and give her double according to her works: and in the cup that she hath filled to you, fill her the double.
7 Inasmuch as she glorified herself, and lived in pleasure, so much give ye to her torment and sorrow: for she saith [c]in her heart, I sit being a queen, and am [d]no widow, and shall [e]see no mourning.
