Exegesis
The second clause, kai panta ta lipara kai ta lampra apōleto apo sou {καὶ πάντα τὰ λιπαρὰ καὶ τὰ λαμπρὰ ἀπώλετο ἀπὸ σοῦ | kaí pán-ta tà lipará kaí tà lamprá apṓleto apó sou}, shifts to an all-encompassing direct object and uses apōleto to convey destruction.

lipar-lambda–iota–pi–alpha–rho
“oily, rich, luxurious”
In context — Revelation 18:14
And the fruit that your soul longed for has departed from you, and all the luxurious things and the splendid things have perished from you, and they will never find them again.
