Zaharija 5
1 Podigoh opet oči i vidjeh: leti svitak knjige.
And I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked and behold a flying sickle.
2 Anđeo me upita: “Što vidiš?” Odgovorih: “Vidim svitak knjige gdje leti: dužina joj je dvadeset lakata, a širina deset.”
And he said to me, What seest thou? And I said, I see a flying sickle, of the length of twenty cubits, and of the breadth of ten cubits.
3 On mi tad reče: “To je prokletstvo koje će zahvatiti svu zemlju; odsad, svaki koji krade bit će po njem izgnan odavde i svaki koji krivo priseže bit će po njem odavde protjeran.
And he said to me, This is the curse that goes forth over the face of the whole earth: for every thief shall be punished with death on this side, and every false swearer shall be punished on that side.
4 Ja ću ga izvesti - riječ je Jahve nad Vojskama - da uđe u kuću lupežu i u kuću onome koji se krivo kune mojim imenom te da boravi usred njegove kuće i uništi je skupa s njenim drvljem i kamenjem.”
And I will bring it forth, saith the Lord Almighty, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that swears falsely by my name: and it shall rest in the midst of his house, and shall consume it, and the timber of it, and the stones of it.
5 Anđeo koji je govorio sa mnom iziđe i reče mi: “Podigni oči i pogledaj što se to pojavljuje.”
And the angel that talked with me went forth, and said to me, Lift up thine eyes, and see this that goes forth.
6 Ja ga upitah: “Što je to?” On reče: “To se pojavljuje efa.” I nastavi: “To je opća pokvarenost na zemlji.”
And I said, What is it? And he said, This is the measure that goes forth. And he said, This is their iniquity in all the earth.
7 I gle, podiže se olovan poklopac i jedna žena sjedi usred efe.
And behold a talent of lead lifted up: and behold a woman sat in the midst of the measure.
8 On reče: “To je zloća.” I gurnu je u efu i baci joj na otvor olovni poklopac.
And he said, This is iniquity. And he cast it into the midst of the measure, and cast the weight of lead on the mouth of it.
9 Podigavši oči, vidjeh: dvije žene izlaze s vjetrom u krilima, a krila im bijahu kao krila rode; one podigoše efu između zemlje i neba.
And I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, two women coming forth, and the wind was in their wings; and they had stork's wings: and they lifted up the measure between the earth and the sky.
10 Upitah tad anđela koji je govorio sa mnom: “Kamo odnose efu?”
And I said to the angel that spoke with me, Whither do these carry away the measure?
11 On mi odgovori: “Da joj sagrade hram u zemlji šinearskoj i da joj pripreme postolje na koje će je postaviti.”
And he said to me, To build it a house in the land of Babylon, and to prepare [a place for it]; and they shall set it there on its own base.
