(Revelation 18:21-24)
Then a mighty angel picked up a stone the size of a large millstone and threw it into the sea, saying, "This is how the great city Babylon will be violently thrown down and will never be seen again. The music of harps and of human voices, of players of the flute and the trumpet, will never be heard in you again! No workman in any trade will ever be found in you again; and the sound of the millstone will be heard no more! Never again will the light of a lamp be seen in you; no more will the voices of brides and grooms be heard in you. Your businessmen were the most powerful in your world, and with your false magic you deceived all the peoples of the world!"
Babylon was punished because the blood of prophets and God's people was found in the city; yes, the blood of all those who have been killed on earth.
