¹In zopet povzdignem oči in vidim, glej, zvit list leti.

¹Then again I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold, a flying scroll.

²In mi reče: Kaj vidiš? Rečem: Vidim zvit list, da leti; dvajset komolcev je dolg in deset komolcev širok.

²He said to me, “What do you see?” I answered, “I see a flying scroll; its length is twenty cubits, and its breadth ten cubits.”

³In mi reče: To je prokletstvo, ki izhaja nad vso deželo; kdorkoli namreč krade, bo iztrebljen po tem, kar je na tej strani lista pisano; in kdorkoli prisega krivo, bo iztrebljen po tem, kar je pisano na oni strani.

³Then 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.

⁴Po mojem povelju je izšlo, govori GOSPOD nad vojskami, in pride v hišo tatovo in v hišo njega, ki lažnivo prisega v mojem imenu, in se nastani v hiši njegovi ter jo pokonča z lesovjem in kamenjem njenim vred.

⁴I will cause it to go out,” says Yahweh 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 midst of his house, and will destroy it with its timber and its stones.”

⁵Angel pa, ki je govoril z menoj, stopi ven in mi reče: Povzdigni, prosim, oči in poglej: kaj je tisto, kar izhaja?

⁵Then the angel who talked with me came forward, and said to me, “Lift up now your eyes, and see what is this that is appearing.”

⁶Jaz pa vprašam: Kaj je to? On reče: To je mernik, ki izhaja. In pridene: Tako jih je videti po vsej deželi.

⁶I said, “What is it?” He said, “This is the ephah An ephah is a measure of volume of about 22 litres, 5.8 U. S. gallons, or about 2/3 of a bushel. basket that is appearing.” He said moreover, “This is their appearance in all the land

⁷In glej, svinčena plošča se vzdigne in je videti ženo, sedečo v merniku.

⁷(and behold, a talent A talent is a weight of about 34 kilograms or 75 pounds. of lead was lifted up); and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the ephah basket.”

⁸In reče: To je brezbožnost. In jo vrže v sredo mernika in spusti svinčeno ploščo na odprtino njegovo.

⁸He said, “This is Wickedness”; and he threw her down into the midst of the ephah basket; and he threw the weight of lead on its mouth.

⁹In povzdignem oči in vidim, glej, dve ženi prideta, in veter je bil v njunih perutnicah, perutnice pa sta imeli kakor štorkljine perutnice, in vzdigneta mernik med zemljo in nebo.

⁹Then lifted I 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.

¹⁰In rečem angelu, ki je govoril z menoj: Kam neseta mernik?On mi pa reče: Da mu sezidajo hišo v deželi Sinearski; in ko bo pripravljena, ga tam postavijo na njegovo mesto.

¹⁰Then I said to the angel who talked with me, “Where are these carrying the ephah basket?”

¹¹On mi pa reče: Da mu sezidajo hišo v deželi Sinearski; in ko bo pripravljena, ga tam postavijo na njegovo mesto.

¹¹He said to me, “To build her a house in the land of Shinar. When it is prepared, she will be set there in her own place.”
