“And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,”
'When the kings of the earth who committed adultery with her and shared her luxury see the smoke of her burning, they will weep and mourn over her' - the kings who profited from and participated in Babylon's system witness her destruction and lament their lost power and wealth. Their grief is self-interested: they mourn their own loss of advantage.
