Revelation 18:6-8
Good News Translation
6 (A)Treat her exactly as she has treated you;
pay her back double for all she has done.
Fill her cup with a drink twice as strong
as the drink she prepared for you.
7 (B)Give her as much suffering and grief
as the glory and luxury she gave herself.
For she keeps telling herself:
‘Here I sit, a queen!
I am no widow,
I will never know grief’
8 Because of this, in one day she will be struck with plagues—
disease, grief, and famine.
And she will be burned with fire,
because the Lord God, who judges her, is mighty.”
Revelation 18:6-8
New International Version
6 Give back to her as she has given;
pay her back(A) double(B) for what she has done.
Pour her a double portion from her own cup.(C)
7 Give her as much torment and grief
as the glory and luxury she gave herself.(D)
In her heart she boasts,
‘I sit enthroned as queen.
I am not a widow;[a]
I will never mourn.’(E)
8 Therefore in one day(F) her plagues will overtake her:
death, mourning and famine.
She will be consumed by fire,(G)
for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.
