A woman sitting on a scarlet-colored beast, whom the speaker sees
말하는 이가 본 붉은 빛 짐승을 탄 여자
Revelation 17:1–6: the speaker (“I”) says, “One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and spoke with me, saying, ‘Come here. I will show you the judgment of the great prostitute who sits on many waters, with whom the kings of the earth committed sexual immorality. Those who dwell on the earth were made drunken with the wine of her sexual immorality.’ He carried me away in the Spirit into a wilderness. I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet-colored beast, full of blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns. The woman was dressed in purple and scarlet, and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls, having in her hand a golden cup full of abominations and the impurities of the sexual immorality of the earth. And on her forehead a name was written, ‘MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF THE PROSTITUTES AND OF THE ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.’ I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. When I saw her, I wondered with great amazement.” At 17:3 the Korean Revised Version gives no subject to the one who carried the speaker away (곧 성령으로 나를 데리고 광야로 가니라), where WEB reads “He carried me away”; and at 17:4 it reads 그의 음행의 더러운 것들 (the impurities of her sexual immorality), where WEB reads “the impurities of the sexual immorality of the earth”.
