CHAP. V.
1 By the flying roll, is shown the curse of
thieves and swearers: 5 By a woman pressed
in an ephah, the final damnation of Babylon.
1 Then I turned, and lifted up my
eyes, and looked, and behold a flying
roll.
2 And he said to me, What seest thou?
And I answered, I see a flying roll; its
length is twenty cubits, and its breadth
ten cubits.
3 Then said he to me, This is the curse
that goeth forth over the face of the
whole earth: for note 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.
4 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 its timber and
its stones.
5 ¶2; Then the angel that talked with
me went forth, and said to me, Lift up
now thy eyes, and see what is this that
goeth forth.
6 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.
7 And behold, there was lifted up a note
talent of lead: and this is a woman that
sitteth in the midst of the ephah.
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 its
mouth.
9 Then I lifted up my 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.
10 Then said I to the angel that talked
with me, Whither do these bear the
ephah?
11 And he said to me, To build for it
a house in the land of Shinar: and it
shall be established, and set there upon
her own base.
