¶ Counsell is geuen to the godly, which are cōmaunded to go out of Babilon. Enemies are stired vp against Babilon, & they are cōmaunded not to spare her. The .lxxviij. Sermon.
And I heard an other voice from Heaven saying: come away from her my people, ye ye be not partakers of her sins, leest ye receive of her plagues. ⟨p. 539⟩For her sins are gone up to heaven, & the lord hath remembered her wickedness. Reward her even as she rewarded you, & give her double according to her works. And pour in double to her in the same cup, which she filled unto you. And as much as she glorified her self & lived wantonly, so much pour ye in for her of punishment, and sorrow for she sayeth in her hart: I sit being a queen, & am no widow, & shall see no sorrow. Therefore shall her plagues come at one day, death & sorrow, and hunger, and she shall be burnt with fire: for strong is the lord God which shall judge her.
ANd I hearde an other voyce frō Heauen saying: come awaie from her my people, ye ye be not partakers of her sinnes, leest ye receiue of her plages. ⟨p. 539⟩For her sinnes ar gone vp to heauē, & the lord hath remēbred her wickednes. Rewarde her euen as she rewarded you, & geue her double according to her workes. And poure in double to her in the same cup, whiche she filled vnto you. And asmuch as she glorified her self & liued wantonly, so much powre ye in for her of pūnishment, and sorrow for she sayeth in her hart: I sitte being a quene, & am no widowe, & shal see no sorrow. Therfore shal her plages come at one day, death & sorrow, and honger, and she shal be brente with fire: for stronge is the lord God which shal iudge her.
