2. 1ENGWEBBEThen again I lifted up my eyes and saw, and behold, a flying scroll.BSBBSB: Again I lifted up my eyes and saw before me a flying scroll.
3. 2ENGWEBBEHe said to me, “What do you see?” I answered, “I see a flying scroll; its length is twenty cubits, and its width ten cubits.”BSBBSB: “What do you see?” asked the angel. “I see a flying scroll,” I replied, “twenty cubits long and ten cubits wide.”
4. 3ENGWEBBEThen 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.BSBBSB: Then he told me, “This is the curse that is going out over the face of all the land, for according to one side of the scroll, every thief will be removed; and according to the other side, every perjurer will be removed.
5. 4ENGWEBBEI will cause it to go out,” says the LORD of Armies, “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.”BSBBSB: I will send it out, declares the LORD of Hosts, and it will enter the house of the thief and the house of him who swears falsely by My name. It will remain inside his house and destroy it, down to its timbers and stones.”

8. 6ENGWEBBEI said, “What is it?” He said, “This is the ephah basket that is appearing.” He said moreover, “This is their appearance in all the land—BSBBSB: “What is it?” I asked. And he replied, “A measuring basket is going forth.” Then he continued, “This is their iniquity in all the land.”
9. 7ENGWEBBEand behold, a lead cover weighing one talent was lifted up—and there was a woman sitting in the middle of the ephah basket.”BSBBSB: And behold, the cover of lead was raised, and there was a woman sitting inside the basket.
10. 8ENGWEBBEHe said, “This is Wickedness;” and he threw her down into the middle of the ephah basket; and he threw the lead weight on its mouth.BSBBSB: “This is Wickedness,” he said. And he shoved her down into the basket, pushing down the lead cover over its opening.
11. 9ENGWEBBEThen 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 ephah basket between earth and the sky.BSBBSB: Then I lifted up my eyes and saw two women approaching, with the wind in their wings. Their wings were like those of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between heaven and earth.
