Revelation 18:23

---

← Revelation 18:22	Revelation 18:23 (KJV)	Revelation 18:24 →
And the voice of harpers, and musicians, and of pipers, and trumpeters, shall be heard no more at all in thee; and no craftsman, of whatsoever craft [he be], shall be found any more in thee; and the sound of a millstone shall be heard no more at all in thee;	And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.	And in her was found the blood of prophets, and of saints, and of all that were slain upon the earth.
