< Zechariah 5 >

1 Then I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a flying roll.
Et conversus sum, et levavi oculos meos: et vidi, et ecce volumen volans.
2 And he said unto me, What see you? And I answered, I see a flying roll; the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits.
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 unto me, This is the curse that goes forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that steals shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that swears shall be cut off as on that side according to it.
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, says the LORD of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that swears 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.
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 forth, and said unto me, Lift up now your eyes, and see what is this that goes forth.
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 said, What is it? And he said, This is an ephah that goes forth. He said moreover, This is their resemblance through all the earth.
Et dixi: Quidnam est? Et ait: Hæc est amphora egrediens. Et dixit: Hæc est oculus eorum in universa terra.
7 And, behold, there was lifted up a talent of lead: and this is a woman that sits in the midst of the ephah.
Et ecce talentum plumbi portabatur, et ecce mulier una sedens in medio amphoræ.
8 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.
Et dixit: Hæc est impietas. Et proiecit eam in medio amphoræ, et misit massam plumbeam in os eius.
9 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.
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 said I to the angel that talked with me, Where do these bear the ephah?
Et dixi ad angelum, qui loquebatur in me: Quo istæ deferunt amphoram?
11 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.
Et dixit ad me: Ut ædificetur ei domus in terra Sennaar, et stabiliatur, et ponatur ibi super basem suam.
