1 A nd I lifted up mine eyes again, and saw, and behold, a flying roll.

وَرَفَعْتُ عَينَيَّ ثانِيَةً، فَرَأيتُ مَخطُوطَةَ كِتابٍ تَطِيرُ.

2 A nd he said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I see a flying roll: the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits.

فَقالَ لِيَ المَلاكُ: «ماذا تَرَى؟» فَقُلْتُ: «أرَى مَخطُوطَةَ كِتابٍ تَطيرُ فِي الهَواءِ، طُولُها عشْرُونَ ذِراعاً، وَعَرضُها عَشْرَةُ أذْرُعٍ.

3 A nd he said unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole land: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off according to it on this side; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off according to it on that side.

فَقالَ لِي: «اللَّعنَةُ المُعلَنَةُ ضِدَّ كُلِّ الأرْضِ مَكْتُوبَةٌ عَلَى هَذِهِ المَخطُوطَةِ! لَعنَةٌ ضِدُّ اللُّصُوصِ عَلَى وَجهُها الأّوَّلُ، وَضِدُّ الحالِفينَ بِاسمِي كَذِباً عَلَى وَجهِها الثّانِي.

4 I will cause it to go forth, saith Jehovah 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 lodge in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof.

وَيَقُولُ اللهُ القَدِيرُ: ‹أرسَلْتُ هَذا العِقابَ لِيَدخُلَ بَيتَ اللِّصِّ وَالحالِفِ بِاسْمِي كَذِباً. سَيَسْكُنُ العِقابُ فِي بَيتِهِ وَيُدَمِّرُهُ تَدمِيراً، بِخَشَبِهِ وَحِجارَتِهِ.›» السَّلَّةُ وَالمَرأة

5 A nd 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.

ثُمَّ خَرَجَ المَلاكُ الَّذِي كانَ يَتَكَلَّمُ مَعِي وَقالَ لِيَ: «ارفَعْ عَينَيكَ وَانظُرْ ما هَذا الآتِي نَحوَنا.»

6 A nd I said, What is it? And he said, This is the ephah that goeth forth. And he said, This is their resemblance in all the land.

فَقُلْتُ: «ما هُوَ؟» فَقالَ: «هَذا إناءٌ لِلْكَيلِ. إنَّهُ لِكَيلِ ذَنُوبِ الأرْضِ كُلِّها.»

7 A nd behold, there was lifted up a round plate of lead; and this is a woman that sitteth in the midst of the ephah.

ثُمَّ رُفِعَ غِطاءُ الإناءِ المُستَدِيرُ المَصنُوعُ مِنَ الرَّصاصِ، فَرأيْتُ امْرأةً جالِسَةً فِي وَسَطِ الإناءِ!

8 A nd he said, This is Wickedness: and he cast her into the midst of the ephah; and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.

وَقالَ المَلاكُ: «هَذا نِتاجُ الشَّرَّ.» ثُمَّ دَفَعَها ثانِيَةً إلَى داخِلِ الإناءِ، وَوَضَعَ غِطاءَ الرَّصاصِ عَلَى فُتْحَةِ الإناءِ.

9 A nd I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and behold, there came out two women, and the wind was in their wings; and they had wings like the wings of a stork; and they lifted up the ephah between the earth and the heavens.

ثُمَّ نَظَرْتُ إلَى الأعلَى وَرَأيتُ امرَأتَينِ مُقبِلَتَينِ لَهُما أجنِحَةٌ كَأجنِحَةِ لَقلَقٍ مَفرُودَةٍ لِلطَّيَرانِ. فَرَفَعَتا الإناءَ فِي الهَواءِ.

10 A nd I said to the angel that talked with me, Whither do these carry the ephah?

فَقُلْتُ لِلمَلاكِ الَّذِي كانَ يَتَكَلَّمُ مَعِي: «إلَى أينَ تَأخُذُ المَرأتانِ الإناءَ؟»

11 A nd he said unto me, To build it a house in the land of Shinar; and it shall be established, and set there upon its own base.

فَقالَ لِي: «إنَّهُما ذاهِبَتانِ لِبِناءِ بَيتٍ لِلإناءَ فِي أرْضِ شِنعارَ. وَحِينَ يُصبِحُ البَيتُ جاهِزاً، سَيُوضَعُ الإناءُ عَلَى قاعِدَتِهِ.»
