Gen Z: Revelation 17
1One of the seven angels rolled up with the seven vials and was like, "Yo, come here; I’m about to spill the tea on the great whore chillin' on mad waters."
2The kings of the earth were totally vibing with her, and everyone was buzzed off the wine of her wild ways.
3Then he took me to the wild, and I peeped a woman riding a scarlet beast, decked out in blasphemy with seven heads and ten horns.
4The woman was dripped out in purple and scarlet, flexing gold, gems, and pearls, holding a golden cup filled with her nasty abominations.
5On her forehead was written a name: MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOMMA OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS ON EARTH.
6I saw her drunk on the blood of the saints and martyrs of Jesus, and I was shook with admiration.
7The angel was like, "Why you trippin'? I’ll break down the mystery of the woman and the beast with seven heads and ten horns."
8The beast you saw was, then wasn’t; it’s gonna rise from the bottomless pit and head to destruction. Those whose names ain’t in the book of life will be mind-blown when they see the beast that was, isn’t, and yet is.
9Here’s the wisdom: the seven heads are seven mountains where the woman chills.
10There are seven kings: five have fallen, one is, and one hasn’t shown up yet; when he does, it’ll be for a hot minute.
11The beast that was, isn’t, he’s the eighth, part of the seven, and goes to destruction.
12The ten horns you saw are ten kings who haven’t claimed their kingdoms yet; but they’ll flex their power with the beast for an hour.
13They’re all on the same page and will give their power and strength to the beast.
14They’ll go to war with the Lamb, but the Lamb will totally crush them, 'cause He’s the Lord of lords and King of kings; those with Him are called, chosen, and faithful.
15The waters you saw, where the whore sits, are peoples, multitudes, nations, and languages.
16The ten horns on the beast will hate the whore, make her desolate, eat her flesh, and burn her with fire.
17God put it in their hearts to do His will, agree, and give their kingdom to the beast until His words are lit.
18The woman you saw is that great city that rules over the kings of the earth.
