The Flying Scroll

5 Then I lifted up my eyes again and looked, and behold, there was a flying ^(A)scroll. ² And he said to me, “^(B)What do you see?” And I answered, “I see a flying scroll; its length is twenty ^[a]cubits and its width ten cubits.” ³ Then he said to me, “This is the ^(C)curse that is going forth over the face of the whole ^[b]land; surely everyone who ^(D)steals will be purged away according to ^[c]the writing on one side, and everyone who ^(E)swears will be purged away according to ^[d]the writing on the other side. ⁴ I will ^(F)make it go forth,” declares the Lord of hosts, “and it will ^(G)enter the house of the ^(H)thief and the house of the one who swears falsely by My name; and it will spend the night within that house and ^(I)consume it with its timber and stones.”
