For all nations [all churches or denominations--see SDA Bible Commentary, vol 7, p 979] 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.
Akalia kwa sauti kuu, akisema, umeanguka, umeanguka, Babeli ule mkuu [ikiwakilisha kila Kanisa kahaba Urumi, Uprotestanti ulioasi, na Uadventista]; umekuwa maskani ya mashetani, na ngome ya kila roho mchafu na ngome ya kila ndege mchafu mwenye kuchukiza; kwa kuwa mataifa yote [Makanisa yote au madhehebu angalia SDA Bible Commentary, gombo la 7, ukr. 979] wamekunywa mvinyo ya ghadhabu ya uasherati wake na wafalme wa nchi wamezini naye, na wafanya biashara wa nchi wamepata mali kwa nguvu za kiburi chake.
