Apocalipsis de Juan 18

BIBLIA	CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN
1 Después de esto vi bajar del cielo a otro Angel, que tenía gran poder, y la tierra quedó iluminada con su resplandor.	1 And after these things, I saw another Angel, descending from heaven, having great authority. And the earth was illuminated by his glory.
2 Gritó con potente voz diciendo: «¡Cayó, cayó la Gran Babilonia! Se ha conviertido en morada de demonios, en guarida de toda clase de espíritus inmundos, en guarida de toda clase de aves inmundas y detestables.	2 And he cried out with strength, saying: “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great. And she has become the habitation of demons, and the keepsake of every unclean spirit, and the possession of every unclean and hateful flying thing.
3 Porque del vino de sus prostituciones han bebido todas las naciones, y los reyes de la tierra han fornicado con ella, y los mercaderes de la tierra se han enriquecido con su lujo desenfrenado».	3 For all the nations have imbibed the wine of the wrath of her fornication. And the kings of the earth have fornicated with her. And the merchants of the earth have become wealthy by the power of her pleasures.”
4 Luego oí otra voz que decía desde el cielo: «Salid de ella, pueblo mío, no sea que os hagáis cómplices de sus pecados y os alcancen sus plagas.	4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying: “Go away from her, my people, so that you may not be participants in her pleasures, and so that you may not be recipients of her afflictions.
5 Porque sus pecados se han amontonado hasta el cielo y Dios se ha acordado de sus iniquidades.	5 For her sins have pierced through even to heaven, and the Lord has remembered her iniquities.
6 Dadle como ella ha dado, dobladle la medida conforme a sus obras, en la copa que ella preparó preparadle el doble.	6 Render to her, as she has also rendered to you. And repay her doubly, according to her works. Mix for her a double portion, in the cup with which she mixed.
7 En proporción a su jactancia y a su lujo, dadle tormentos y llantos. Pues dice en su corazón: Estoy sentada como reina, y no soy viuda y no he de conocer el llanto...	7 As much as she has glorified herself and lived in pleasure, so much so give to her torment and grief. For in her heart, she has said: ‘I am enthroned as queen,’ and, ‘I am not a widow,’ and, ‘I shall not see sorrow.’
8 Por eso, en un solo día llegarán sus plagas: peste, llanto y hambre, y será consumida por el fuego. Porque poderoso es el Señor Dios que la ha condenado».	8 For this reason, her afflictions shall arrive in one day: death and grief and famine. And she shall be burned with fire. For God, who will judge her, is strong.
9 Llorarán, harán duelo por ella los reyes de la tierra, los que con ella fornicaron y se dieron al lujo, cuando vean la humareda de sus llamas;	9 And the kings of the earth, who have fornicated with her and lived in luxury, shall weep and mourn for themselves over her, when they see the smoke of her conflagration,
10 se quedarán a distancia horrorizados ante su suplicio, y dirán: «¡Ay, ay, la Gran Ciudad! ¡Babilonia, ciudad poderosa, que en una hora ha llegado tu juicio!»	10 standing far away, out of fear of her torments, saying: ‘Woe! Woe! to Babylon, that great city, that strong city. For in one hour, your judgment has arrived.’
11 Lloran y se lamentan por ella los mercaderes de la tierra, porque nadie compra ya sus cargamentos:	11 And the businessmen of the earth shall weep and mourn over her, because no one will buy their merchandise anymore:
12 cargamentos de oro y plata, piedras preciosas y perlas, lino y púrpura, seda y escarlata, toda clase de maderas olorosas y toda clase de objetos de marfil, toda clase de objetos de madera preciosa, de bronce, de hierro y de mármol;	12 merchandise of gold and silver and precious stones and pearls, and of fine linen and purple and silk and scarlet, and of every citrus tree wood, and of every tool of ivory, and of every tool from precious stone and brass and iron and marble,
13 cinamomo, amomo, perfumes, mirra, incienso, vino, aceite, harina, trigo, bestias de carga, ovejas, caballos y carros; esclavos y mercancía humana.	13 and of cinnamon and black cardamom, and of fragrances and ointments and incense, and of wine and oil and fine flour and wheat, and of beasts of burden and sheep and horses and four-wheeled wagons, and of slaves and the souls of men.
14 Y los frutos en sazón que codiciaba tu alma, se han alejado de ti; y toda magnificencia y esplendor se han terminado para ti, y nunca jamás aparecerán.	14 And the fruits of the desires of your soul have gone away from you. And all things fat and splendid have perished from you. And they shall never find these things again.
15 Los mercaderes de estas cosas, los que a costa de ella se habían enriquecido, se quedarán a distancia horrorizados ante su suplicio, llorando y lamentándose:	15 The merchants of these things, who were made wealthy, shall stand far away from her, out of fear of her torments, weeping and mourning,
16 «¡Ay, ay, la Gran Ciudad, vestida de lino, púrpura y escarlata, resplandeciente de oro, piedras preciosas y perlas,	16 and saying: ‘Woe! Woe! to that great city, which was clothed with fine linen and purple and scarlet, and which was adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls.’
17 que en una hora ha sido arruinada tanta riqueza!» Todos los capitanes, oficiales de barco y los marineros, y cuantos se ocupan en trabajos del mar, se quedaron a distancia	17 For such great wealth was brought to destitution in one hour. And every shipmaster, and all who navigate on lakes, and mariners, and those who work at sea, stood far away.
18 y gritaban al ver la humareda de sus llamas: «¿Quién como la Gran Ciudad?»	18 And they cried out, seeing the place of her conflagration, saying: ‘What city resembles this great city?’
19 Y echando polvo sobre sus cabezas, gritaban llorando y lamentándose: «¡Ay, ay, la Gran Ciudad, con cuya opulencia se enriquecieron cuantos tenían las naves en el mar; que en una hora ha sido asolada!»	19 And they cast dust upon their heads. And they cried out, weeping and mourning, saying: ‘Woe! Woe! to that great city, by which all who had ships at sea were made rich from her treasures. For she has been made desolate in one hour.
20 Alégrate por ella, cielo, y vosotros, los santos, los apóstoles y los profetas, porque al condenarla a ella, Dios ha juzgado vuestra causa.	20 Exult over her, O heaven, O holy Apostles and Prophets. For God has judged your judgment upon her.’ ”
21 Un Angel poderoso alzó entonces una piedra, como una gran rueda de molino, y la arrojó al mar diciendo: «Así, de golpe, será arrojada Babilonia, la Gran Ciudad, y no aparecerá ya más..».	21 And a certain strong Angel took up a stone, similar to a great millstone, and he cast it into the sea, saying: “With this force shall Babylon, that great city, be cast down. And she shall never be found again.
22 Y la música de los citaristas y cantores, de los flautistas y trompetas, no se oirá más en ti; artífice de arte alguna no se hallará más en ti; la voz de la rueda de molino no se oirá más en ti;	22 And the sound of singers, and musicians, and flute and trumpet players shall not be heard in you again. And every artisan of every art shall not be found in you again. And the sound of the mill shall not be heard in you again.
23 La luz de la lámpara no lucirá más en ti; la voz del novio y de la novia no se oirá más en ti. Porque tus mercaderes eran los magnates de la tierra, porque con tus hechicerías se extravíanron todas las naciones;	23 And the light of the lamp shall not shine in you again. And the voice of the groom and of the bride shall not be heard in you anymore. For your merchants were the leaders of the earth. For all the nations were led astray by your drugs.
24 y en ella fue hallada la sangre de los profetas y de los santos y de todos los degollados de la tierra.	24 And in her was found the blood of the Prophets and of the Saints, and of all who were slain upon the earth.”
