18 After ·the vision of these things [L these things], I saw another angel coming down from heaven. This angel had great ·power [authority], and his ·glory [splendor] ·made the earth bright [illumined the earth]. He ·shouted [cried out] in a ·powerful [mighty; strong] voice:

“·Ruined, ruined [L Fallen, fallen] is ·the great city of Babylon [L Babylon the great]!
    She has become a ·home [haunt; dwelling place] for demons
and a ·prison [or haunt] for every ·evil [L unclean] spirit,
    and a ·prison [or haunt] for every unclean bird and unclean beast.
