Zechariah 5
1 And I turned and lifted up my eyes. And I saw, and behold, a book flying.
E outra vez levantei os meus olhos, e olhei, e eis que vi um rolo voante.
2 And he said to me, “What do you see?” And I said, “I see a book flying. Its length is twenty cubits, and its width is ten cubits.”
E me disse: Que vês? E eu disse: Vejo um rolo voante, que tem vinte côvados de comprido e dez côvados de largo.
3 And he said to me, “This is the curse that goes forth over the face of the whole earth. For every thief will be judged, just as it has been written there, and everyone who swears by this, will be judged in like manner.”
Então me disse: Esta é a maldição que sairá pela face de toda a terra; porque qualquer que furtar daí, conforme a mesma maldição, será desarraigado: como também qualquer que jurar falsamente daí, conforme a mesma maldição, será desarraigado.
4 I will bring it forth, says the Lord of hosts, and it will approach to the house of the thief, and to the house of him who swears falsely by my name, and it will remain in the midst of his house and will consume it, with its wood and its stones.
Eu a tirarei para fora, disse o Senhor dos exércitos, e virá à casa do ladrão, e à casa do que jurar falsamente pelo meu nome; e pernoitará no meio da sua casa, e a consumirá a ela com a sua madeira e com as suas pedras
5 And the angel had departed, who was speaking with me. And he said to me, “Lift up your eyes, and see what this is, that goes forth.”
E saiu o anjo, que falava comigo, e me disse: Levanta agora os teus olhos, e vê que é isto que sai.
6 And I said, “What, then, is it?” And he said, “This is a container going forth.” And he said, “This is their eye in all the earth.”
E eu disse: Que é isto? E ele disse: Isto é um epha que sai. Mais disse: Este é o olho deles em toda a terra.
7 And behold, a talent of lead was being carried; and behold, one woman sitting in the middle of the container.
E eis que foi levantado um talento de chumbo, e havia uma mulher que estava assentada no meio do epha.
8 And he said, “This is impiety.” And he cast her into the middle of the container, and he sent the weight of lead into its mouth.
E ele disse: Esta é a impiedade. E a lançou dentro do epha; e lançou na boca dele o peso de chumbo.
9 And I lifted up my eyes and I saw. And behold, two women were departing, and a spirit was in their wings, and they had wings like the wings of a kite, and they lifted up the container between earth and heaven.
E levantei os meus olhos, e olhei, e eis que duas mulheres sairam, e havia vento nas suas asas, e tinham asas como as asas da cegonha; e levantaram o epha entre a terra e o céu.
10 And I said to the angel who was speaking with me, “Where are they taking the container?”
Então eu disse ao anjo que falava comigo: Para onde levam estas o epha?
11 And he said to me, “To a house that may be built for it in the land of Shinar, and so that it may be established and set there upon its own base.”
E ele me disse: Para lhe edificarem uma casa na terra de Sinear, e, sendo esta assentada, ele será posto ali sobre a sua base.
