Zechariah 5
1 I looked up again, and I saw a scroll that was flying [through the air].
我又举目观看，见有一飞行的书卷。
2 The angel asked me, “What do you see?” I replied, “I see a flying scroll that is [huge], (10 yards/9 meters) long and (5 yards/4.5 meters) wide.”
他问我说：“你看见什么？”我回答说：“我看见一飞行的书卷，长二十肘，宽十肘。”
3 Then he said to me, “On this scroll is written the [words that Yahweh is speaking to] curse the entire country. On [one side of] the scroll it is written that every thief will be banished. On [the other side] it is written that everyone who tells a lie when he is solemnly promising to tell the truth will also be banished from the country.
他对我说：“这是发出行在遍地上的咒诅。凡偷窃的必按卷上这面的话除灭；凡起假誓的必按卷上那面的话除灭。
4 The Commander of the armies of angels says, ‘I will send [copies of] this scroll to the places where thieves live and to the houses of those who use my name when they solemnly promise to tell the truth. [The copies of] this scroll will stay in their houses, until those houses and all their wood and stones are destroyed.’”
万军之耶和华说：我必使这书卷出去，进入偷窃人的家和指我名起假誓人的家，必常在他家里，连房屋带木石都毁灭了。”
5 Then the angel who had been talking to me came closer to me and said, “Look up and see what is appearing!”
与我说话的天使出来，对我说：“你要举目观看，见所出来的是什么？”
6 I asked him, “What is it?” He replied, “It is a big basket [for measuring grain]. But it represents the sins that everyone in this nation has committed.”
我说：“这是什么呢？”他说：“这出来的是量器。”他又说：“这是恶人在遍地的形状。”
7 Then [the angel] lifted the basket’s cover, [which was made] of lead. There was a woman sitting inside the basket!
（我见有一片圆铅被举起来。）这坐在量器中的是个妇人。
8 The angel said, “She represents the wicked things [that people do].” Then the angel pushed her back into the basket and closed the very heavy lid [again].
天使说：“这是罪恶。”他就把妇人扔在量器中，将那片圆铅扔在量器的口上。
9 Then I looked up and saw two women in front of me. They [were flying toward us], with their wings spread out in the wind. Their wings were [large], like [SIM] storks’ wings. They lifted the big basket up into the sky.
我又举目观看，见有两个妇人出来，在她们翅膀中有风，飞得甚快，翅膀如同鹳鸟的翅膀。她们将量器抬起来，悬在天地中间。
10 I asked the angel who had been talking to me, “Where are they taking that basket?”
我问与我说话的天使说：“她们要将量器抬到哪里去呢？”
11 He replied, “[They are taking it] to Babylonia to build a temple for it. When the temple is finished, they will set the basket there on a pedestal [for people to worship it].”
他对我说：“要往示拿地去，为它盖造房屋；等房屋齐备，就把它安置在自己的地方。”
