Definition

whore of babylon

A reference back to Revelation 17 where it talks about the great prostitute who was drunk with the blood of the saints.
Only it's not biblical in reference at all. Used to describe an exceptionally evil woman who lacks any redeeming qualities, and generally makes your life hell.
She's a whore of Babylon. She's trying to take over my project and run it into the ground.

Wikipedia

Rivers of Babylon

"Rivers of Babylon" is a Rastafari song written and recorded by Brent Dowe and Trevor McNaughton of the Jamaican reggae group The Melodians in 1970. The lyrics are adapted from the texts of Psalms 19, and 137 in the Hebrew Bible. The Melodians' original version of the song appeared on the soundtrack album for the 1972 movie The Harder They Come, which made it internationally known.

The song was re-popularized in Europe by the 1978 Boney M. cover version, which was awarded a platinum disc and is one of the top-ten, all-time best-selling singles in the UK. The B-side of the single, "Brown Girl in the Ring", also became a hit.

They have never undergone the critical rehabilitation afforded their competitors Abba, which means their oeuvre‘s more outre aspects have been dwarfed by the memory of their two biggest hits, 1'78‘s double A–side Brown Girl in the Ring/ Rivers of Babylon and the Christmas number one Mary‘s Boy Child – still, respectively, the fifth and 10th best–selling singles in British chart history.

2. In the section on longings for the Land of Israel, for example, Psalm 137 is quoted, which opens with the words: "By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down and we wept when we remembered Zion," but also features Arik Einstein‘s song "Yoshev B‘San Francisco Al Hamayim" (Sitting in San Francisco on the water). "It‘s hard to explain why this event moves me so much," says Kristal–Shalit.
