Zechariah 5:1-4

Modern English Version

The Vision of the Flying Scroll

5 Then I turned and lifted up my eyes and saw a flying scroll.

² He asked me, “What do you see?”

And I responded, “I see a flying scroll with its length as twenty cubits and its width as ten cubits.”^[a]

³ He said to me, “This is the curse going out over the surface of all the land. Everyone who steals will be purged according to the writing on one side, and everyone who swears falsely will be purged according to the writing on the other side. ⁴ I will send it out, says the Lord of Hosts, and it will enter the house of the thief, and the house of him who swears falsely by My name. It will remain in his house and consume it, with its timber and stones.”
