[an error occurred while processing this directive]New International Version
1[an error occurred while processing this directive]1I looked again, and there before me was a flying scroll.
2[an error occurred while processing this directive]2He asked me, "What do you see?" I answered, "I see a flying scroll, twenty cubits long and ten cubits wide."
3[an error occurred while processing this directive]3And he said to me, "This is the curse that is going out over the whole land; for according to what it says on one side, every thief will be banished, and according to what it says on the other, everyone who swears falsely will be banished.
4[an error occurred while processing this directive]4The LORD Almighty declares, 'I will send it out, and it will enter the house of the thief and the house of anyone who swears falsely by my name. It will remain in that house and destroy it completely, both its timbers and its stones.'"
5[an error occurred while processing this directive]5Then the angel who was speaking to me came forward and said to me, "Look up and see what is appearing."
6[an error occurred while processing this directive]6I asked, "What is it?" He replied, "It is a basket." And he added, "This is the iniquity of the people throughout the land."
7[an error occurred while processing this directive]7Then the cover of lead was raised, and there in the basket sat a woman!
8[an error occurred while processing this directive]8He said, "This is wickedness," and he pushed her back into the basket and pushed its lead cover down on it.
9[an error occurred while processing this directive]9Then I looked up--and there before me were two women, with the wind in their wings! They had wings like those of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between heaven and earth.
10[an error occurred while processing this directive]10"Where are they taking the basket?" I asked the angel who was speaking to me.
11[an error occurred while processing this directive]11He replied, "To the country of Babylonia to build a house for it. When the house is ready, the basket will be set there in its place."
