 3 ``For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the passion of her
immorality, and the kings of the earth have committed acts of immorality
with her, and the merchants of the earth have become rich by the wealth of
her sensuality.
 4 I heard another voice from heaven, saying, ``Come out of her, my people,
so that you will not participate in her sins and receive of her plagues; 5
for her sins have piled up as high as heaven."
> Rev 18:3-5 (NASB)
