Then I turned,
and lifted up
mine eyes,
and looked,
and behold a flying
roll.
And he said
unto me, What seest
thou? And I answered,
I see
a flying
roll;
the length
thereof is twenty
cubits,
and the breadth
thereof ten
cubits.
Then said
he unto me, This is the curse
that goeth forth
over the face
of the whole earth:
for every one that stealeth
shall be cut off
as on this side according
to it; and every one that sweareth
shall be cut off
as on that side according
to it.
say
I will bring it forth,
saith
the LORD
of hosts,
and it shall enter
into the house
of the thief,
and into 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.
Then the angel
that talked
with me went forth,
and said
unto me, Lift up
now thine eyes,
and see
what is this that goeth forth.
And I said,
What is it? And he said,
This is an ephah
that goeth forth.
He said
moreover, This is their resemblance
through all the earth.
And, behold, there was lifted up
a talent
of lead:
and this is a
woman
that sitteth
in the midst
of the ephah.
And he said,
This is wickedness.
And he cast
it into the midst
of the ephah;
and he cast
the weight
of lead
upon the mouth
thereof.
Then lifted I up
mine eyes,
and looked,
and, behold, there came out
two
women,
and the wind
was in their wings;
for they had
wings
like the wings
of a stork:
and they lifted up
the ephah
between the earth
and the heaven.

Then said
I to the angel
that talked
with me, Whither do these bear
the ephah?
And he said
unto me, To build
it an house
in the land
of Shinar:
and it shall be established,
and set
there upon her own base.
