18:21 有一位大力的天使舉起一塊石頭，好像大磨石，扔在海裡，說：巴比倫大城也必這樣猛力地被扔下去，決不能再見了。
18:22 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；
18:23 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。
18:24 先知和聖徒，並地上一切被殺之人的血，都在這城裡看見了。
Then a mighty angel took up a stone like a
great millstone and threw it into the sea, saying,
"So will Babylon the great city be
thrown down with violence,
and will be found no more;
and the sound of harpists and musicians, of
flute players and trumpeters,
will be heard in you no more,
and a craftsman of any craft
will be found in you no more,
and the sound of the mill
will be heard in you no more,
and the light of a lamp
will shine in you no more,
and the voice of bridegroom and bride
will be heard in you no more,
for your merchants were the great ones of
the earth,
and all nations were deceived by your
sorcery.
And in her was found the blood of prophets
and of saints,
and of all who have been slain on
earth."

這裡看見抵擋上帝的力量終必過去！因為上帝是真正的掌權者，一切反對上帝的勢力，終必有過去的一天，最後的勝利必定是屬乎上帝的！
許多事情，我們有限的人是看不明白，也不知如何是好。但是我們不覺得害怕，因為一切全在上帝的手中。
就像這迫害聖徒和先知的城，終必滅亡！
