Reve OrthJBC 17:1  And one of the shivat hamalachim having the sheva hamakkot (plagues) came and spoke with me saying, Bo! I will show you the mishpat (judgment) of the Zonah HaGedolah (the Great Prostitute) sitting on rabbim mayim, [Yeshayah 23:17; Yirmeyah 51:13]
Reve OrthJBC 17:2  with whom the melachim of kol ha'aretz have committed zenut (fornication) and with the yayin of whose zenut kol ha'aretz has fallen into shichrut (drunkenness).
Reve OrthJBC 17:3  And he carried me away into the midbar in Ruach Hakodesh, and I saw an Isha sitting on a scarlet Chayyah (Anti-Moshiach) being filled with names of Chillul Hashem, gidufim, having sheva (seven) heads and eser horns.
Reve OrthJBC 17:4  And the Isha had been clothed in purple and scarlet, and gilded with gold and precious stone and pearls, having a golden kos (cup) in her hand and the kos was full of the abominations and the uncleanesses of her zenut. [Yechezkel 28:13; Yirmeyah 51:7]
