Revelation 18:18-20

Easy-to-Read Version

¹⁸They saw the smoke from her burning. They cried out, ‘There was never a city like this great city!’ ¹⁹They threw dust on their heads and cried loudly to show the deep sorrow they felt. They said,

‘Terrible! How terrible for the great city!
    All those who had ships on the sea became rich because of her wealth!
    But she has been destroyed in one hour!
²⁰Be happy because of this, O heaven!
    Be happy, God’s holy people and apostles and prophets!
God has punished her because of what she did to you.’”
