Zechariah 5

1 Then I turned me, and lifted vp mine eyes and looked, and beholde, a flying booke.

Et conversus sum, et levavi oculos meos: et vidi, et ecce volumen volans.

2 And he said vnto me, What seest thou? And I answered, I see a flying booke: the length thereof is twentie cubites, and the breadth thereof tenne cubites.

Et dixit ad me: Quid tu vides? Et dixi: Ego video volumen volans: longitudo eius viginti cubitorum, et latitudo eius decem cubitorum.

3 Then said he vnto me, This is the curse that goeth foorth ouer the whole earth: for euery one that stealeth, shalbe cut off aswell on this side, as on that: and euery one that sweareth, shall be cut off aswell on this side, as on that.

Et dixit ad me: Hæc est maledictio, quæ egreditur super faciem omnis terræ: quia omnis fur, sicut ibi scriptum est, iudicabitur: et omnis iurans, ex hoc similiter iudicabitur.

4 I will bring it forth, saith the Lord of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thiefe, and into the house of him, that falsely sweareth by my Name: and it shall remaine in the middes of his house, and shall consume it, with the timber thereof, and stones thereof.

Educam illud, dicit Dominus exercituum: et veniet ad domum furis, et ad domum iurantis in nomine meo mendaciter: et commorabitur in medio domus eius, et consumet eam, et ligna eius, et lapides eius.

5 Then the Angel that talked with me, went foorth, and said vnto me, Lift vp now thine eyes, and see what is this that goeth foorth.

Et egressus est angelus, qui loquebatur in me: et dixit ad me: Leva oculos tuos, et vide quid est hoc, quod egreditur.

6 And I saide, What is it? And hee sayde, This is an Ephah that goeth foorth. Hee saide moreouer, This is the sight of them through all the earth.

Et dixi: Quid nam est? Et ait: Hæc est amphora egrediens. Et dixit: Hæc est oculus eorum in universa terra.

7 And beholde, there was lift vp a talent of lead: and this is a woman that sitteth in the middes of the Ephah.

Et ecce talentum plumbi portabatur, et ecce mulier una sedens in medio amphoræ.

8 And he said, This is wickednes, and he cast it into the middes of the Ephah, and hee cast the weight of lead vpon the mouth thereof.

Et dixit: Hæc est impietas. Et proiecit eam in medio amphoræ, et misit massam plumbeam in os eius.

9 Then lift I vp mine eyes, and looked: and beholde, there came out two women, and the winde was in their wings (for they had wings like the wings of a storke) and they lift vp the Ephah betweene the earth and the heauen.

Et levavi oculos meos, et vidi: et ecce duæ mulieres egredientes, et spiritus in alis earum, et habebant alas quasi alas milvi: et levaverunt amphoram inter terram, et cælum.

10 Then saide I to the Angel that talked with me, Whither doe these beare the Ephah?

Et dixi ad angelum, qui loquebatur in me: Quo istæ deferunt amphoram?

11 And hee saide vnto mee, To builde it an house in the lande of Shinar, and it shall be established and set there vpon her owne place.

Et dixit ad me: Ut ædificetur ei domus in terra Sennaar, et stabiliatur, et ponatur ibi super basem suam.
