¹فعدت ورفعت عينيّ ونظرت واذا بدرج طائر.

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

²فقال لي ماذا ترى. فقلت اني ارى درجا طائرا طوله عشرون ذراعا وعرضه عشر اذرع.

²And 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.

³فقال لي هذه هي اللعنة الخارجة على وجه كل الارض. لان كل سارق يباد من هنا بحسبها وكل حالف يباد من هناك بحسبها.

³Then said he 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 on the one side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off on the other side according to it.

⁴اني اخرجها يقول رب الجنود فتدخل بيت السارق وبيت الحالف باسمي زورا وتبيت في وسط بيته وتفنيه مع خشبه وحجارته

⁴I 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 abide in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof.

⁵ثم خرج الملاك الذي كلمني وقال لي. ارفع عينيك وانظر ما هذا الخارج.

⁵Then 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.

⁶فقلت ما هو. فقال هذه هي الايفة الخارجة. وقال هذه عينهم في كل الارض.

⁶And I said, What is it? And he said, This is the ephah that goeth forth. He said moreover, This is their appearance in all the land

⁷واذا بوزنة رصاص رفعت. وكانت امرأة جالسة في وسط الايفة.

⁷(and, behold, there was lifted up a talent of lead); and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the ephah.

⁸فقال هذه هي الشر. فطرحها الى وسط الايفة وطرح ثقل الرصاص على فمها.

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

⁹ورفعت عينيّ ونظرت واذا بامرأتين خرجتا والريح في اجنحتهما. ولهما اجنحة كاجنحة اللقلق فرفعتا الايفة بين الارض والسماء.

⁹Then lifted I up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, there came forth 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 between earth and heaven.

¹⁰فقلت للملاك الذي كلمني الى اين هما ذاهبتان بالايفة.

¹⁰Then said I to the angel that talked with me, Whither do these bear the ephah?

¹¹فقال لي لتبنيا لها بيتا في ارض شنعار. واذا تهيّأ تقرّ هناك على قاعدتها

¹¹And he said unto me, To build her a house in the land of Shinar: and when it is prepared, she shall be set there in her own place.
