Zechariah 5:5-11

New Revised Standard NRS

5 Then the angel who talked with me came forward and said to me, "Look up and see what this is that is coming out."

6 I said, "What is it?" He said, "This is a basket coming out." And he said, "This is their iniquity in all the land."

7 Then a leaden cover was lifted, and there was a woman sitting in the basket!

8 And he said, "This is Wickedness." So he thrust her back into the basket, and pressed the leaden weight down on its mouth.

9 Then I looked up and saw two women coming forward. The wind was in their wings; they had wings like the wings of a stork, and they lifted up the basket between earth and sky.

10 Then I said to the angel who talked with me, "Where are they taking the basket?"

11 He said to me, "To the land of Shinar, to build a house for it; and when this is prepared, they will set the basket down there on its base."
