21. Then a mighty angel picked up a stone like a large millstone and threw it into the sea, saying:In this way, Babylon the great citywill be thrown down violently and never be found again.
22. The sound of harpists, musicians,flutists, and trumpeterswill never be heard in you again; no craftsman of any tradewill ever be found in you again;the sound of a millwill never be heard in you again;
23. the light of a lampwill never shine in you again;and the voice of a groom and bridewill never be heard in you again. All this will happenbecause your merchantswere the nobility of the earth,because all the nations were deceivedby your sorcery,
24. and the blood of prophets and saints, and of all those slaughtered on earth,was found in you.
