LEB(i)
11 And the merchants of the earth weep and mourn over her, because no one buys their cargo any more—
12 cargo of gold and silver and precious stones and pearls and fine linen and purple cloth and silk and scarlet cloth and all kinds of scented wood and all kinds of ivory goods and all kinds of goods of precious wood and bronze and iron and marble
13 and cinnamon and amomum* and incense and ointment and frankincense and wine and olive oil and fine wheat flour and wheat and domesticated animals and sheep and horses and carriages and ⌊slaves⌋* and human lives.
14 "And ⌊the fruit your soul desires⌋* has departed from you, and all the luxury and the splendor has perished from you, and they will never find them any more."
15 The merchants of these things, who became rich from them, will stand ⌊far off⌋*, weeping and mourning because of the fear of her torment,
16 saying,
"Woe, woe, the great city, dressed in fine linen and purple cloth and scarlet cloth, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls, 17 because in one hour such great wealth has been laid waste!"
And every shipmaster and ⌊every seafarer⌋* and sailors and all those who labor on the sea stood ⌊far off⌋* 18 and began to cry out when they* saw the smoke of her burning, saying, "Who is like the great city?" 19 And they threw dust on their heads and were crying out, weeping and mourning, saying,
"Woe, woe, the great city, in which all those who had ships on the sea became rich from her prosperity, because in one hour she has been laid waste!" 20 Rejoice over her, heaven and the saints and the apostles and the prophets, because God has pronounced your judgment on her!" 21 And one powerful angel picked up a stone like a great millstone and threw it into the sea, saying,
"In this way Babylon the great city will be thrown down with violence, and will never be found again! 22 And the sound of harpists and musicians and flute players and trumpeters will never be heard in you again! And every craftsman of every trade will never be found in you again! And the sound of a mill will never be heard in you again! 23 And the light of a lamp will never shine in you again! And the sound of a bridegroom and bride will never be heard in you again! For your merchants were the most important people of the earth, because with your sorcery they deceived all the nations. 24 And in her was found the blood of prophets and saints and all those who had been slaughtered on the earth.
