“And the great city was divided into three parts, and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine of the fierceness of his wrath.”
The great city split into three parts, and the cities of the nations collapsed; God remembered Babylon the Great and gave her the cup filled with the wine of the fury of his wrath - Babylon (the rebellious city and empire) splits apart and falls. God's remembrance is not forgetfulness overcome but divine recollection issuing in judgment; Babylon drinks the cup of wrath.
