Revelation 17:5-6 The Fall of Babylon

5 This title was written on her forehead:
mystery
babylon the great
the mother of prostitutes
and of the abominations of the earth.

6 I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of the saints, the blood of those who bore testimony to Jesus.
When I saw her, I was greatly astonished.
