The end of Babylon

18 After these things happened, I saw another angel. He was coming down from heaven. He had great authority. He was beautiful and he shone brightly. He gave light to the whole world. He shouted with a very loud voice:

She is a home for every unclean bird.
She is a home for every unclean and disgusting animal.
