Apart from this, Revelation 18:11-13 might seem to interrupt the connexion between Revelation 18:10; Revelation 18:14, and Revelation 18:9-10; Revelation 18:14 would be quite naturally continued by Revelation 18:15-17; Revelation 18:11-13 may have once stood before Revelation 18:4.

ὅτι οὐδεὶς�. Their sorrow is even more purely selfish than that of the kings.
