. And the ten horns which thou sawest in the beast: These shall
hate the harlot and shall make her desolate and naked and shall eat her
flesh and shall burn her with fire.

17:17. For God hath given into their hearts to do that which pleaseth

fulfilled.

17:18. And the woman which thou sawest is the great city which hath
kingdom over the kings of the earth.

Apocalypse Chapter 18

The fall of Babylon. Kings and merchants lament over her.

18:1. And after these things, I saw another angel come down from heaven,
having great power: and the earth was enlightened with his glory.
