Zechariah 5

1 Then again I lifted up my eyes and saw, and behold, a flying scroll.

我又舉目觀看，見有一飛行的書卷。

2 He said to me, “What do you see?” I answered, “I see a flying scroll; its length is twenty cubits, and its width ten cubits.”

他問我說：「你看見甚麼？」我回答說：「我看見一飛行的書卷，長二十肘，寬十肘。」

3 Then he said to me, “This is the curse that goes out over the surface of the whole land, for everyone who steals shall be cut off according to it on the one side; and everyone who swears falsely shall be cut off according to it on the other side.

他對我說：「這是發出行在遍地上的咒詛。凡偷竊的必按卷上這面的話除滅；凡起假誓的必按卷上那面的話除滅。

4 I will cause it to go out,” says the LORD of Hosts, “and it will enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him who swears falsely by my name; and it will remain in the middle of his house, and will destroy it with its timber and its stones.”

萬軍之耶和華說：我必使這書卷出去，進入偷竊人的家和指我名起假誓人的家，必常在他家裏，連房屋帶木石都毀滅了。」

5 Then the angel who talked with me came forward and said to me, “Lift up now your eyes and see what this is that is appearing.”

與我說話的天使出來，對我說：「你要舉目觀看，見所出來的是甚麼？」

6 I said, “What is it?” He said, “This is the efah basket that is appearing.” He said moreover, “This is their appearance in all the land—

我說：「這是甚麼呢？」他說：「這出來的是量器。」他又說：「這是惡人在遍地的形狀。」

7 and behold, a lead cover weighing one talent was lifted up—and there was a woman sitting in the middle of the efah basket.”

（我見有一片圓鉛被舉起來。）這坐在量器中的是個婦人。

8 He said, “This is Wickedness;” and he threw her down into the middle of the efah basket; and he threw the lead weight on its mouth.

天使說：「這是罪惡。」他就把婦人扔在量器中，將那片圓鉛扔在量器的口上。

9 Then I lifted up my eyes and saw, and behold, there were two women; and the wind was in their wings. Now they had wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the efah basket between earth and the sky.

我又舉目觀看，見有兩個婦人出來，在她們翅膀中有風，飛得甚快，翅膀如同鸛鳥的翅膀。她們將量器抬起來，懸在天地中間。

10 Then I said to the angel who talked with me, “Where are these carrying the efah basket?”

我問與我說話的天使說：「她們要將量器抬到哪裏去呢？」

11 He said to me, “To build her a house in the land of Shinar. When it is prepared, she will be set there in her own place.”

他對我說：「要往示拿地去，為它蓋造房屋；等房屋齊備，就把它安置在自己的地方。」
