Revelation 18:6-8
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
6 Pay her back as she has paid others.
Pay her back double for her deeds.
Into her cup pour double what she poured.(A)
7 To the measure of her boasting and wantonness
repay her in torment and grief;
for she said to herself,
‘I sit enthroned as queen;
I am no widow,
and I will never know grief.’(B)
8 Therefore, her plagues will come in one day,
pestilence, grief, and famine;
she will be consumed by fire.
For mighty is the Lord God who judges her.”
