Revelation 17:4-6

New Century Version

⁴ The woman was dressed in purple and red and was shining with the gold, precious jewels, and pearls she was wearing. She had a golden cup in her hand, a cup filled with evil things and the uncleanness of her sexual sin. ⁵ On her forehead a title was written that was secret. This is what was written:

the great babylon

mother of prostitutes

and of the evil things of the earth

⁶ Then I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of God’s holy people and with the blood of those who were killed because of their faith in Jesus.

When I saw the woman, I was very amazed.
