Zechariah 5

1 Then again I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and look, a flying scroll.

Then again I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and, behold, a flying roll.

2 He said to me, "What do you see?" I answered, "I see a flying scroll; its length is twenty-nine feet six inches, and its breadth fourteen feet nine inches."

And he said to me, What do thou see? And I answered, I see a flying roll. The length of it is twenty cubits, and the breadth of it ten cubits.

3 Then he said to me, "This is the curse that goes out over the surface of the whole land; for everyone who steals shall be cut off according to it on the one side; and everyone who swears falsely shall be cut off according to it on the other side.

Then he said to me, This is the curse that goes forth over the face of the whole land. For everyone who steals shall be cut off on the one side according to it, and everyone who swears shall be cut off on the other side according to it.

4 I will cause it to go out," says YHWH of hosts, "and it will enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him who swears falsely by my name; and it will remain in the midst of his house, and will destroy it with its timber and its stones."

I will cause it to go forth, says Jehovah of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him who swears falsely by my name. And it shall abide in the midst of his house, and shall consume it, with the timber thereof and the stones thereof.

5 Then the angel who talked with me came forward, and said to me, "Lift up now your eyes, and see what is this that is appearing."

Then the agent who talked with me went forth, and said to me, Lift up now thine eyes, and see what this is that goes forth.

6 And I said, "What is it?" And he said, "This is the ephah basket that is appearing." And he said moreover, "This is their iniquity throughout the land."

And I said, What is it? And he said, This is the ephah that goes forth. He said moreover, This is their appearance in all the land

7 And look, a lead cover was raised up, and there was a woman sitting in the basket.

(and, behold, a talent of lead was lifted up), and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the ephah.

8 And he said, "This is Wickedness;" and he threw her down into the midst of the ephah basket; and he placed the lead cover over its mouth.

And he said, This is Wickedness. And he cast her down into the midst of the ephah, and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth of it.

9 Then lifted I up my eyes, and saw, and look, there were two women, and the wind was in their wings. Now they had wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the ephah basket between earth and the sky.

Then I lifted up my eyes, and looked. And, behold, there came forth two women, and the wind was in their wings. Now they had wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the ephah between earth and heaven.

10 Then said I to the angel who talked with me, "Where are these carrying the ephah basket?"

Then I said to the agent who talked with me, Where do these carry the ephah?

11 He said to me, "To build her a house in the land of Shinar. When it is prepared, she will be set there in her own place."

And he said to me, To build her a house in the land of Shinar. And when it is prepared, she shall be set there in her own place.
