Revelation 18

CATHOLIC PUBLIC DOMAIN	GREEK BIBLE
1 And after these things, I saw another Angel, descending from heaven, having great authority. And the earth was illuminated by his glory.	1 Και μετα ταυτα ειδον αγγελον καταβαινοντα εκ του ουρανου, οστις ειχεν εξουσιαν μεγαλην, και η γη εφωτισθη εκ της δοξης αυτου,
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.	2 και εκραξε δυνατα μετα φωνης μεγαλης, λεγων? Επεσεν, επεσε Βαβυλων η μεγαλη, και εγεινε κατοικητηριον δαιμονων και φυλακη παντος πνευματος ακαθαρτου και φυλακη παντος ορνεου ακαθαρτου και μισητου?
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.”	3 διοτι εκ του οινου του θυμου της πορνειας αυτης επιον παντα τα εθνη, και οι βασιλεις της γης επορνευσαν μετ' αυτης και οι εμποροι της γης επλουτησαν εκ της υπερβολης της εντρυφησεως αυτης.
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.	4 Και ηκουσα αλλην φωνην εκ του ουρανου, λεγουσαν? Εξελθετε εξ αυτης ο λαος μου, δια να μη συγκοινωνησητε εις τας αμαρτιας αυτης, και να μη λαβητε εκ των πληγων αυτης?
5 For her sins have pierced through even to heaven, and the Lord has remembered her iniquities.	5 διοτι αι αμαρτιαι αυτης εφθασαν εως του ουρανου, και ενεθυμηθη ο Θεος τα αδικηματα αυτης.
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.	6 Αποδοτε εις αυτην ως και αυτη απεδωκεν εις εσας, και διπλασιασατε εις αυτην διπλασια κατα τα εργα αυτης? με το ποτηριον, με το οποιον εκερασε, διπλασιον κερασατε εις αυτην?
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.’	7 οσον εδοξασεν εαυτην και κατετρυφησε, τοσον βασανισμον και πενθος δοτε εις αυτην. Διοτι λεγει εν τη καρδια αυτης, Καθημαι βασιλισσα και χηρα δεν ειμαι και πενθος δεν θελω ιδει,
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.	8 δια τουτο εν μια ημερα θελουσιν ελθει αι πληγαι αυτης, θανατος και πενθος και πεινα, και θελει κατακαυθη εν πυρι? διοτι ισχυρος ειναι Κυριος ο Θεος ο κρινων αυτην.
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,	9 Και θελουσι κλαυσει αυτην και πενθησει δι' αυτην οι βασιλεις της γης, οι πορνευσαντες και κατατρυφησαντες μετ' αυτης, οταν βλεπωσι τον καπνον της πυρπολησεως αυτης,
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.’	10 απο μακροθεν ισταμενοι δια τον φοβον του βασανισμου αυτης, λεγοντες? Ουαι, ουαι, η πολις η μεγαλη, Βαβυλων, η πολις η ισχυρα, διοτι εν μια ωρα ηλθεν η κρισις σου.
11 And the businessmen of the earth shall weep and mourn over her, because no one will buy their merchandise anymore:	11 Και οι εμποροι της γης κλαιουσι και πενθουσι δι' αυτην, διοτι ουδεις αγοραζει πλεον τας πραγματειας αυτων,
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,	12 πραγματειας χρυσου και αργυρου και λιθων τιμιων και μαργαριτων και βυσσου και πορφυρας και μεταξης και κοκκινου και παν ξυλον αρωματικον και παν σκευος ελεφαντινον και παν σκευος εκ ξυλου πολυτιμου και χαλκου και σιδηρου και μαρμαρου,
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.	13 και κιναμωμον και θυμιαματα και μυρον και λιβανον και οινον και ελαιον και σεμιδαλιν και σιτον και κτηνη και προβατα και ιππους και αμαξας και ανδραποδα και ψυχας ανθρωπων.
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.	14 Και τα οπωρικα της επιθυμιας της ψυχης σου εφυγον απο σου, και παντα τα παχεα και τα λαμπρα εφυγον απο σου, και πλεον δεν θελεις ευρει αυτα.
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,	15 Οι εμποροι τουτων, οι πλουτησαντες απ' αυτης, θελουσι σταθη απο μακροθεν δια τον φοβον του βασανισμου αυτης, κλαιοντες και πενθουντες,
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.’	16 και λεγοντες? Ουαι, ουαι, η πολις η μεγαλη? η ενδεδυμενη βυσσινον και πορφυρουν και κοκκινον και κεχρυσωμενη με χρυσον και λιθους τιμιους και μαργαριτας,
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.	17 διοτι εν μια ωρα ηρημωθη ο τοσουτος πλουτος. Και πας πλοιαρχος και παν το πληθος το επι των πλοιων και ναυται και οσοι εμπορευονται δια της θαλασσης, εσταθησαν απο μακροθεν,
18 And they cried out, seeing the place of her conflagration, saying: ‘What city resembles this great city?’	18 και εκραζον βλεποντες τον καπνον της πυρπολησεως αυτης, λεγοντες? Ποια πολις εσταθη ομοια με την πολιν την μεγαλην;
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.	19 Και εβαλον χωμα επι τας κεφαλας αυτων και εκραζον κλαιοντες και πενθουντες, λεγοντες? Ουαι, ουαι, η πολις η μεγαλη, εν η επλουτησαν εκ της αφθονιας αυτης παντες οι εχοντες πλοια εν τη θαλασση? διοτι εν μια ωρα ηρημωθη.
20 Exult over her, O heaven, O holy Apostles and Prophets. For God has judged your judgment upon her.’ ”	20 Ευφραινου επ' αυτην, ουρανε, και οι αγιοι αποστολοι και οι προφηται, διοτι εκρινεν ο Θεος την κρισιν σας εναντιον αυτης.
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.	21 Και εσηκωσεν εις αγγελος ισχυρος λιθον, ως μυλοπετραν μεγαλην, και ερριψεν εις την θαλασσαν, λεγων? Ουτω με ορμην θελει ριφθη η Βαβυλων η μεγαλη πολις, και δεν θελει ευρεθη πλεον.
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.	22 Και φωνη κιθαρωδων και μουσικων και αυλητων και σαλπιστων δεν θελει ακουσθη πλεον εν σοι, και πας τεχνιτης πασης τεχνης δεν θελει ευρεθη πλεον εν σοι, και φωνη μυλου δεν θελει ακουσθη πλεον εν σοι,
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.	23 και φως λυχνου δεν θελει φεγγει πλεον εν σοι, και φωνη νυμφιου και νυμφης δεν θελει ακουσθη πλεον εν σοι? διοτι οι εμποροι σου ησαν οι μεγιστανες της γης, διοτι με την γοητειαν σου επλανηθησαν παντα τα εθνη,
24 And in her was found the blood of the Prophets and of the Saints, and of all who were slain upon the earth.”	24 και εν αυτη ευρεθη αιμα προφητων και αγιων και παντων των εσφαγμενων επι της γης.
