as a note on the end of this verse (Rev 11:18) the word "destroy"(diaphtheirō) comes from the same greek root word, phtheirō, used in Genesis 6:12 Septuagint:

Now the earth was corrupt(phtheirō) in the sight of God, and the earth was filled with violence.
(Genesis 6:11 NASB)

phtheirō - destroy, corrupt, spoil
diaphtheirō - to destroy utterly, spoil, corrupt
