Zacharie 5
1 Je levai de nouveau les yeux et je regardai, et voici, il y avait un rouleau qui volait.
And I turn back, and lift up my eyes, and look, and behold, a flying scroll.
2 Il me dit: Que vois-tu? Je répondis: Je vois un rouleau qui vole; il a vingt coudées de longueur, et dix coudées de largeur.
And he says to me, “What are you seeing?” And I say, “I am seeing a flying scroll, its length [is] twenty by the cubit, and its breadth [is] ten by the cubit.”
3 Et il me dit: C’est la malédiction qui se répand sur tout le pays; car selon elle tout voleur sera chassé d’ici, et selon elle tout parjure sera chassé d’ici.
And he says to me, “This [is] the execration that is going forth over the face of all the land, for everyone who is stealing, on the one side, according to it, has been declared innocent, and everyone who has sworn, on the other side, according to it, has been declared innocent.”
4 Je la répands, dit l’Éternel des armées, afin qu’elle entre dans la maison du voleur et de celui qui jure faussement en mon nom, afin qu’elle y établisse sa demeure, et qu’elle la consume avec le bois et les pierres.
“I have brought it out,” a declaration of YHWH of Hosts, “and it has come into the house of the thief, and into the house of him who has sworn in My Name with a falsehood, and it has remained in the midst of his house, and has consumed it, both its wood and its stones.”
5 L’ange qui parlait avec moi s’avança, et il me dit: Lève les yeux, et regarde ce qui sort là.
And the messenger who is speaking with me goes forth and says to me, “Now lift up your eyes, and [do you] see what this [is] that is coming forth?”
6 Je répondis: Qu’est-ce? Et il dit: C’est l’épha qui sort. Il ajouta: C’est leur iniquité dans tout le pays.
And I say, “What [is] it?” And he says, “This—the ephah that is coming forth.” And he says, “This [is] their aspect in all the land.
7 Et voici, une masse de plomb s’éleva, et il y avait une femme assise au milieu de l’épha.
And behold, a disc of lead lifted up; and this [is] a woman sitting in the midst of the ephah.”
8 Il dit: C’est l’iniquité. Et il la repoussa dans l’épha, et il jeta sur l’ouverture la masse de plomb.
And he says, “This [is] the wicked woman.” And he casts her into the midst of the ephah, and casts the weight of lead on its mouth.
9 Je levai les yeux et je regardai, et voici, deux femmes parurent. Le vent soufflait dans leurs ailes; elles avaient des ailes comme celles de la cigogne. Elles enlevèrent l’épha entre la terre et le ciel.
And I lift up my eyes, and see, and behold, two women are coming forth, and wind [is] in their wings; and they have wings like wings of the stork, and they lift up the ephah between the earth and the heavens.
10 Je dis à l’ange qui parlait avec moi: Où emportent-elles l’épha?
And I say to the messenger who is speaking with me, “To where [are] they causing the ephah to go?”
11 Il me répondit: Elles vont lui bâtir une maison dans le pays de Schinear; et quand elle sera prête, il sera déposé là dans son lieu.
And he says to me, “To build a house for it in the land of Shinar.” And it has been prepared and has been placed there on its base.
