啟示錄 18
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1此後，我看見另有一位有大權柄的天使從天降下，地就因他的榮耀發光。
1And after these things, I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power: and the earth was enlightened with his glory.
2他大聲喊着說： 巴比倫 大城傾倒了！傾倒了！ 成了鬼魔的住處 和各樣污穢之靈的巢穴， 並各樣污穢可憎之雀鳥的巢穴。
2And he cried out with a strong voice, saying: Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen; and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every unclean spirit, and the hold of every unclean and hateful bird:
3因為列國都被她邪淫大怒的酒傾倒了。 地上的君王與她行淫； 地上的客商因她奢華太過就發了財。
3Because all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication; and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her; and the merchants of the earth have been made rich by the power of her delicacies.
4我又聽見從天上有聲音說： 我的民哪，你們要從那城出來， 免得與她一同有罪，受她所受的災殃；
4And I heard another voice from heaven, saying: Go out from her, my people; that you be not partakers of her sins, and that you receive not of her plagues.
5因她的罪惡滔天； 她的不義，上帝已經想起來了。
5For her sins have reached unto heaven, and the Lord hath remembered her iniquities.
6她怎樣待人，也要怎樣待她， 按她所行的加倍地報應她； 用她調酒的杯加倍地調給她 喝 。
6Render to her as she also hath rendered to you; and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup wherein she hath mingled, mingle ye double unto her.
7她怎樣榮耀自己，怎樣奢華， 也當叫她照樣痛苦悲哀， 因她心裏說： 我坐了皇后的位， 並不是寡婦， 決不至於悲哀。
7As much as she hath glorified herself, and lived in delicacies, so much torment and sorrow give ye to her; because she saith in her heart: I sit a queen, and am no widow; and sorrow I shall not see.
8所以在一天之內， 她的災殃要一齊來到， 就是死亡、悲哀、饑荒。 她又要被火燒盡了， 因為審判她的主上帝大有能力。
8Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine, and she shall be burnt with the fire; because God is strong, who shall judge her.
9地上的君王，素來與她行淫、一同奢華的，看見燒她的煙，就必為她哭泣哀號。
9And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication, and lived in delicacies with her, shall weep, and bewail themselves over her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning:
10因怕她的痛苦，就遠遠地站着說：哀哉！哀哉！ 巴比倫 大城，堅固的城啊， 一時之間你的刑罰就來到了。
10Standing afar off for fear of her torments, saying: Alas! alas! that great city Babylon, that mighty city: for in one hour is thy judgment come.
11地上的客商也都為她哭泣悲哀，因為沒有人再買他們的貨物了；
11And the merchants of the earth shall weep, and mourn over her: for no man shall buy their merchandise any more.
12這貨物就是金、銀、寶石、珍珠、細麻布、紫色料、綢子、朱紅色料、各樣香木、各樣象牙的器皿、各樣極寶貴的木頭，和銅、鐵、漢白玉的器皿，
12Merchandise of gold and silver, and precious stones; and of pearls, and fine linen, and purple, and silk, and scarlet, and all thyine wood, and all manner of vessels of ivory, and all manner of vessels of precious stone, and of brass, and of iron, and of marble,
13並肉桂、荳蔻、香料、香膏、乳香、酒、油、細麵、麥子、牛、羊、車、馬，和奴僕、人口。
13And cinnamon, and odours, and ointment, and frankincense, and wine, and oil, and fine flour, and wheat, and beasts, and sheep, and horses, and chariots, and slaves, and souls of men.
14巴比倫 哪，你所貪愛的果子離開了你； 你一切的珍饈美味 和華美的物件也從你中間毀滅， 決不能再見了。
14And the fruits of the desire of thy soul are departed from thee, and all fat and goodly things are perished from thee, and they shall find them no more at all.
15販賣這些貨物、藉着她發了財的客商，因怕她的痛苦，就遠遠地站着哭泣悲哀，說：
15The merchants of these things, who were made rich, shall stand afar off from her, for fear of her torments, weeping and mourning.
16哀哉！哀哉！這大城啊， 素常穿着細麻、 紫色、朱紅色的衣服， 又用金子、寶石，和珍珠為妝飾。
16And saying: Alas! alas! that great city, which was clothed with fine linen, and purple, and scarlet, and was gilt with gold, and precious stones, and pearls.
17一時之間，這麼大的富厚就歸於無有了。 凡船主和坐船往各處去的，並眾水手，連所有靠海為業的，都遠遠地站着，
17For in one hour are so great riches come to nought; and every shipmaster, and all that sail into the lake, and mariners, and as many as work in the sea, stood afar off.
18看見燒她的煙，就喊着說：「有何城能比這大城呢？」
18And cried, seeing the place of her burning, saying: What city is like to this great city?
19他們又把塵土撒在頭上，哭泣悲哀，喊着說： 哀哉！哀哉！這大城啊。 凡有船在海中的，都因她的珍寶成了富足！ 她在一時之間就成了荒場！
19And they cast dust upon their heads, and cried, weeping and mourning, saying: Alas! alas! that great city, wherein all were made rich, that had ships at sea, by reason of her prices: for in one hour she is made desolate.
20天哪，眾聖徒、眾使徒、眾先知啊， 你們都要因她歡喜， 因為上帝已經在她身上伸了你們的冤。
20Rejoice over her, thou heaven, and ye holy apostles and prophets; for God hath judged your judgment on her.
21有一位大力的天使舉起一塊石頭，好像大磨石，扔在海裏，說： 巴比倫 大城也必這樣猛力地被扔下去， 決不能再見了。
21And a mighty angel took up a stone, as it were a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying: With such violence as this shall Babylon, that great city, be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.
22彈琴、作樂、吹笛、吹號的聲音， 在你中間決不能再聽見； 各行手藝人在你中間決不能再遇見； 推磨的聲音在你中間決不能再聽見；
22And the voice of harpers, and of musicians, and of them that play on the pipe, and on the trumpet, shall no more be heard at all in thee; and no craftsman of any art whatsoever shall be found any more at all in thee; and the sound of the mill shall be heard no more at all in thee;
23燈光在你中間決不能再照耀； 新郎和新婦的聲音，在你中間決不能再聽見。 你的客商原來是地上的尊貴人； 萬國也被你的邪術迷惑了。
23And the light of the lamp shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth, for all nations have been deceived by thy enchantments.
24先知和聖徒，並地上一切被殺之人的血，都在這城裏看見了。
24And in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.
