1[an error occurred while processing this directive]1Again I lifted my eyes and saw, and behold, a flying scroll!
2[an error occurred while processing this directive]2And 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.”
3[an error occurred while processing this directive]3Then he said to me, “This is the curse that goes out over the face of the whole land. For everyone who steals shall be cleaned out according to what is on one side, and everyone who swears falsely shall be cleaned out according to what is on the other side.
4[an error occurred while processing this directive]4I will send it out, declares the LORD of hosts, and it shall enter the house of the thief, and the house of him who swears falsely by my name. And it shall remain in his house and consume it, both timber and stones.”
5[an error occurred while processing this directive]5Then the angel who talked with me came forward and said to me, “Lift your eyes and see what this is that is going out.”
6[an error occurred while processing this directive]6And I said, “What is it?” He said, “This is the basket that is going out.” And he said, “This is their iniquity in all the land.”
7[an error occurred while processing this directive]7And behold, the leaden cover was lifted, and there was a woman sitting in the basket!
8[an error occurred while processing this directive]8And he said, “This is Wickedness.” And he thrust her back into the basket, and thrust down the leaden weight on its opening.
9[an error occurred while processing this directive]9Then I lifted my eyes and saw, and behold, two women coming forward! The wind was in their wings. They had wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between earth and heaven.
10[an error occurred while processing this directive]10Then I said to the angel who talked with me, “Where are they taking the basket?”
11[an error occurred while processing this directive]11He said to me, “To the land of Shinar, to build a house for it. And when this is prepared, they will set the basket down there on its base.”
