⁶ Pay back to her as she herself also paid out,
and pay back double^[a] according to her deeds;
in the cup that she mixed, mix double for her.
⁷ As much as she glorified herself and lived in luxury,
give to her so much torment and mourning,
because in her heart she said,
‘I sit as a queen, and am not a widow,
and I will never see mourning!’
⁸ Because of this her plagues will come in one day—
death and mourning and famine—
and she will be burned up with fire,
because the Lord God who passes judgment on her is powerful!”
