< Zechariah 5 >

1 Again I lifted up my eyes and saw before me a flying scroll.
Ka mael tih, ka mik ka huel tih ka sawt vaengah cayol te tarha ding.
2 “What do you see?” asked the angel. “I see a flying scroll,” I replied, “twenty cubits long and ten cubits wide.”
Te vaengah kai te, “Balae na hmuh,” a ti. Te dongah, “Cayol aka ding te ka hmuh, a yun dong kul, a daang dong rha lo,” ka ti nah.
3 Then he told me, “This is the curse that is going out over the face of all the land, for according to one side of the scroll, every thief will be removed; and according to the other side, every perjurer will be removed.
Te vaengah kai taengah, “He tah diklai hman boeih ah aka pha thaephoeinah ni. Aka huen boeih soah te dongkah bangla a hmil vetih aka toemngam boeih soah te dongkah bangla a hmil ni.
4 I will send it out, declares the LORD of Hosts, and it will enter the house of the thief and the house of him who swears falsely by My name. It will remain inside his house and destroy it, down to its timbers and stones.”
He tah caempuei BOEIPA kah olphong ni. Cayol ka khuen vetih hlanghuen im khui la, kai ming neh a honghi la aka toemngam im khuila kun ni. A im khui ah rhaehrhong vetih im khaw, a thing neh a lungto khaw a khah pah ni,” a ti.
5 Then the angel who was speaking with me came forward and told me, “Now lift up your eyes and see what is approaching.”
Te phoeiah kai taengkah aka cal puencawn ha pai tih kai taengah, “Na mik huel laeh lamtah mebang a thoeng he hmu,” a ti.
6 “What is it?” I asked. And he replied, “A measuring basket is going forth.” Then he continued, “This is their iniquity in all the land.”
Te dongah, “Balae te,” ka ti nah hatah, “Cangnoek la aka thoeng he,” a ti. Te phoeiah, “He tah diklai tom kah amih mueimae ni,” a ti.
7 And behold, the cover of lead was raised, and there was a woman sitting inside the basket.
Te vaengah kawnlawk amsing te tarha rhoep uh tih cangnoek khui ah huta pakhat ana ngol.
8 “This is Wickedness,” he said. And he shoved her down into the basket, pushing down the lead cover over its opening.
Te phoeiah, “Halangnah he,” a ti tih anih te cangnoek khui la a det. Te phoeiah tah a rhai te kawnlawk lung neh a nan.
9 Then I lifted up my eyes and saw two women approaching, with the wind in their wings. Their wings were like those of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between heaven and earth.
Ka mik ka huel bal tih ka sawt vaengah, huta rhoi te khohli dongah a phae neh tarha thoeng. Te rhoi kah a phae tah bungrho phae bangla om tih cangnoek te diklai laklo neh vaan laklo ah a khuen rhoi.
10 “Where are they taking the basket?” I asked the angel who was speaking with me.
Te dongah kai taengah aka cal puencawn te, “Cangnoek te melam a khuen rhoi?” ka ti nah.
11 “To build a house for it in the land of Shinar,” he told me. “And when it is ready, the basket will be set there on its pedestal.”
Te vaengah kai taengah, “Shinar kho ah a im la a sak. Sikim coeng tih a tungkho dongah pahoi a hol ni,” a ti.
