Zechariah 5:6-8

New International Reader's Version

⁶ “What is it?” I asked.

“A basket,” he replied. “The sins of the people all through the land are in it.”

⁷ Then the basket’s cover was lifted up. It was made out of lead. A woman was sitting in the basket! ⁸ The angel said, “She stands for everything that is evil.” Then he pushed her down into the basket. He put the lead cover back over it.
