Revelation 16:18-20
1599 Geneva Bible
18 [a]And there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and there was a great earthquake, such as was not since men were upon the earth, even so mighty an earthquake.
19 [b]And the great city was divided into three parts: and the cities of the nations [c]fell: and that great [d]Babylon came in remembrance before God, (A)to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.
20 And every isle fled away, and the mountains [e]were not [f]found.
