Zechariah 5
1 And I turned and lifted up my eyes: and I saw, and behold a volume flying.
И обратихся и возведох очи мои и видех, и се, серп летящь.
2 And he said to me: What seest thou? And I said: I see a volume flying: the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits.
И рече ко мне: что ты видиши? И рех: аз вижду серп летящь, в долготу лактей двадесять и в широту десяти лактей.
3 And he said to me: This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the earth: for every thief shall be judged as is there written: and every one that sweareth in like manner shall be judged by it.
И рече ко мне: сия клятва исходящая на лице всея земли: зане всяк тать от сего даже до смерти отмщен будет, и всяк кленыйся во лжу от сего до смерти отмстится.
4 I will bring it forth, saith the Lord of hosts: and it shall come to the house of the thief, and to the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it, with the timber thereof, and the stones thereof.
И изнесу его, глаголет Господь Вседержитель, и внидет в дом татя и в дом кленущагося именем Моим во лжу, и вселится посреде дому его, и скончает его и древа его и камение его.
5 And the angel went forth that spoke in me, and he said to me: Lift up thy eyes, and see what this is, that goeth forth.
И изыде Ангел глаголяй во мне и рече ко мне: воззри очима твоима и виждь исходящее сие. И рех:
6 And I said: What is it? And he said: This is a vessel going forth. And he said: This is their eye in all the earth.
что есть? И рече: сия мера исходящая. И рече: сия неправда их по всей земли.
7 And behold a talent of lead was carried, and behold a woman sitting in the midst of the vessel.
И се, талант оловян вземляйся, и се, жена едина седяше посреде меры.
8 And he said: This is wickedness. And he cast her into the midst of the vessel, and cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.
И рече: сия есть беззаконие. И верже ю в средину меры и вверже камень оловяный во уста ея.
9 And I lifted up my eyes and looked: and behold there came out two women, and wind was in their wings, and they had wings like the wings of a kite: and they lifted up the vessel between the earth and the heaven.
И возведох очи мои и видех, и се, две жены исходящыя, и дух в крилех их, и те имяху крила, яко криле вдодовы: и взяша меру между землею и между небом.
10 And I said to the angel that spoke in me: Whither do these carry the vessel?
И рех ко Ангелу глаголющему во мне: камо сия относят меру?
11 And he said to me: That a house may be built for it in the land of Sennaar, and that it may be established, and set there upon its own basis.
И рече ко мне: создати ей храмину в земли Вавилонстей и уготовати, и положат ю тамо на уготование свое.
