"Come with me," he said, "and I will show you the doom of the great Harlot who sits upon many waters. ² The kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the inhabitants of the earth have been made drunk with the wine of her fornication." ³ So he carried me away in the Spirit into a desert, and there I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet-colored Wild Beast which was covered with names of blasphemy and had seven heads and ten horns. ⁴ The woman was clothed in purple and scarlet, and was brilliantly attired with gold and jewels and pearls. She held in her hand a cup of gold, full of abominations, and she gave filthy indications of her fornication. ⁵ And on her forehead was a name written: "I am a symbol of great Babylon, the mother of the harlots and of the abominations of the earth."
