Holy Bible
(King James Version)
Zechariah:
Chapter 5
1. THEN I
turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a flying roll.
2. 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.
3. 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.
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 the timber thereof and the stones thereof.
5. 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.
6. And I said, What is it? And he said, This is an e-phah that
goeth forth. He said moreover, This is their resemblance through
all the earth.
7. And, behold, there was lifted up a talent of lead: and this is a
woman that sitteth in the midst of the e-phah.
8. And he said, This is wickedness. And he cast it into the midst
of the e-phah; and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.
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 e-phah between the earth and
the heaven.
10. Then said I to the angel that talked with me, Whither do these bear
the e-phah?
11. And he said unto me, To build it an house in the land of Shi-nar:
and it shall be established, and set there upon her own base.
