啟18:1（UCV）【巴比倫傾倒】此後，我看見另有一位有大權柄的天使，從天降下，地就因祂的榮耀發光。

啟18:1（NCV）【大巴比倫傾倒】這些事以後，我看見有另一位掌大權柄的天使，從天上降下來，祂的榮光照亮了大地。

啟18:1（CLV）事後，我又看見另一位執掌大權的天使，從天降到地上。他的榮光照亮了整個大地。

Rev 18:1（NIV）【The Fall of Babylon】After this I saw another angel coming down from heaven. He had great authority, and the earth was illuminated by his splendor.

啟18:2（UCV）祂大聲喊著說：「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〔或作『牢獄』；下同〕，並各樣污穢可憎之雀鳥的巢穴。

啟18:2（NCV）祂用強有力的聲音呼喊說：「傾倒了！大巴比倫傾倒了！成了鬼魔的住處，各樣污靈的監獄，一切污穢可憎之雀鳥的牢籠，

啟18:2（CLV）他用強而有力的聲音喊著說：「大巴比倫城傾覆了！傾覆了！她窩藏著各樣鬼怪邪靈和各種不潔可憎的雀鳥！

Rev 18:2（KJV）And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.

Rev 18:2（NIV）With a mighty voice he shouted: "Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great! She has become a home for demons and a haunt for every evil spirit, a haunt for every unclean and detestable bird.

啟18:3（UCV）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。」

啟18:3（NCV）因為各國都喝她淫亂烈怒的酒醉了；地上的君王與她行淫，地上的商人因她奢華揮霍就發了財。」

啟18:3（CLV）列國都被她荒淫的烈酒灌醉了。地上的君王曾經與她通姦；商人亦因她窮奢極侈的生活而發了財。」

Rev 18:3（KJV）For 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 are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.

Rev 18:3（NIV）For all the nations have drunk the maddening wine of her adulteries. The kings of the earth committed adultery with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries."

啟18:4（UCV）【先有榮耀奢華後受悲哀痛苦】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；

啟18:4（NCV）我聽見另一個聲音從天上來，說，「出來吧！我的子民，要從那城出來，免得在她的罪上有分，受她所受的災難；

啟18:4（CLV）我又聽見天上有另一個聲音說：「我的子民啊，離開這城，切不可與她同流合污，以免和她一同受刑罰。

Rev 18:4（KJV）And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.

Rev 18:4（NIV）Then I heard another voice from heaven say: "Come out of her, my people, so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues;

啟18:5（UCV）因她的罪惡滔天，她的不義，　神已經想起來了。

啟18:5（NCV）因為她的罪惡滔天，　神已經想起她的不義來。

啟18:5（CLV）她已經罪惡滔天；上帝也把她的一切罪行，記得一清二楚。

Rev 18:5（KJV）For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.

Rev 18:5（NIV）for her sins are piled up to heaven, and God has remembered her crimes.

啟18:6（UCV）她怎樣待人，也要怎樣待她；按她所行的加倍的報應她，用她調酒的杯，加倍的調給她喝。

啟18:6（NCV）她怎樣待人，你們也要怎樣待她；照著她所作的，加倍報應她；用她調酒的杯，加倍調給她。

啟18:6（CLV）她所作的孽，必定會報還己身，並且要得加倍的報應；她調甚麼酒給別人喝，別人也要加倍地調給她喝。

Rev 18:6（KJV）Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.

Rev 18:6（NIV）Give back to her as she has given; pay her back double for what she has done. Mix her a double portion from her own cup.

啟18:7（UCV）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。』

啟18:7（NCV）她怎樣絃耀自己，怎樣奢華揮霍，你們也要怎樣給她痛苦悲哀。因為她心裏常常說：『我坐著作女王，我不是寡婦，決不會看見悲哀。』

啟18:7（CLV）她自炫自耀和荒淫無度到甚麼程度，也要得著同等的痛苦和悲哀為報。她曾對自己誇口說：『我穩坐如皇后，我不是無依的寡婦，所以我必不會嘗到哀傷的滋味。』

Rev 18:7（KJV）How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she saith in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.

Rev 18:7（NIV）Give her as much torture and grief as the glory and luxury she gave herself. In her heart she boasts, 'I sit as queen; I am not a widow, and I will never mourn.'

啟18:8（UCV）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　神大有能力。

啟18:8（NCV）因此，在一日之內，她的災難必然來到，就是死亡、悲哀和饑荒；她還要在火中被燒掉，因為審判她的主　神是大有能力的。

啟18:8（CLV）故此在短短一天之內，她受的一切災殃：瘟疫、哀傷和饑荒，要同時臨到她身上。她也要被大火焚燒，因為審判她的主是大有能力的。

Rev 18:8（KJV）Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judgeth her.

Rev 18:8（NIV）Therefore in one day her plagues will overtake her: death, mourning and famine. She will be consumed by fire, for mighty is the Lord God who judges her.

啟18:9（UCV）地上的君王，素來與她行淫，一同奢華的，看見燒她的煙，就必為他哭泣哀號。

啟18:9（NCV）「地上的眾王，就是跟她一同行邪淫、驕奢無度的，看見焚燒她的煙的時候，就必為她痛哭捶胸。

啟18:9（CLV）那些曾與她通姦享樂的君王，目睹她被焚燒時的煙火，就為她捶胸哀慟；

Rev 18:9（KJV）And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,

Rev 18:9（NIV）"When the kings of the earth who committed adultery with her and shared her luxury see the smoke of her burning, they will weep and mourn over her.

啟18:10（UCV）因怕她的痛苦，就遠遠的站著說：『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。』

啟18:10（NCV）他們因為害怕她所受的痛苦，就遠遠地站著，說：『有禍了！有禍了！這大城，巴比倫，這堅固的城阿！一時之間你的審判就來到了！』

啟18:10（CLV）但他們懼怕被災禍殃及，故此，只是袖手旁觀，站在遠處歎息說：『可憐，可憐的巴比倫大城啊！你雖然盛極一時，但審判卻在霎時間臨到。』

Rev 18:10（KJV）Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.

Rev 18:10（NIV）Terrified at her torment, they will stand far off and cry: "'Woe! Woe, O great city, O Babylon, city of power! In one hour your doom has come!'

啟18:11（UCV）地上的客商也都為她哭泣悲哀，因為沒有人再買她們的貨物了。

啟18:11（NCV）「地上的商人也為她悲哀痛哭，因為沒有人再買他們的貨物：

啟18:15（UCV）販賣這些貨物、藉著她發了財的客商，因怕她的痛苦，就遠遠的站著哭泣悲哀，說：

啟18:15（NCV）販賣這些貨物，藉著她發了財的商人，因為害怕她受的痛苦，就遠遠地站著，痛哭悲哀，

啟18:15（CLV）售賣這些貨物給她而致富的商人，惟恐被波及，只站在遠處觀望，為她悲哀哭號說：
