And the light of a candle shall shine no more at all in thee; and the voice of the bridegroom and of the bride shall be heard no more at all in thee: for thy merchants were the great men of the earth; for by thy sorceries were all nations deceived.
Nunca más brillará la luz de las velas en tus calles, y nunca más se escuchará la alegría de bodas o celebraciones. Tus líderes empresariales pensaron que dominaban el mundo, pero tus mentiras y manipulación engañaron a países enteros.
Babilonia perdió para siempre toda luz, gozo y celebración por haber engañado a las naciones con sus mentiras.
📚 Contexto Histórico
In the Book of Revelation, written by the Apostle John around 95 AD during the persecution of Christians under the Roman Empire, Babylon symbolizes Rome as a powerful city known for its vast trade networks and moral corruption. This verse portrays the total destruction of Babylon, emphasizing the end of all joy and light in it due to the deceptive practices of its merchants and leaders, who used economic influence and sorcery-like manipulations to mislead nations. The imagery reflects the historical reality of Rome's idolatry and exploitation, serving as a warning about empires that oppose God's ways.
