1 και επεστρεψα και ηρα τους οφθαλμους μου και ειδον και ιδου δρεπανον πετομενον1 And I turned and lifted up my eyes. And I saw, and behold, a book flying.
2 και ειπεν προς με τι συ βλεπεις και ειπα εγω ορω δρεπανον πετομενον μηκος πηχεων εικοσι και πλατος πηχεων δεκα2 And he said to me, “What do you see?” And I said, “I see a book flying. Its length is twenty cubits, and its width is ten cubits.”
3 και ειπεν προς με αυτη η αρα η εκπορευομενη επι προσωπον πασης της γης διοτι πας ο κλεπτης εκ τουτου εως θανατου εκδικηθησεται και πας ο επιορκος εκ τουτου εως θανατου εκδικηθησεται3 And he said to me, “This is the curse that goes forth over the face of the whole earth. For every thief will be judged, just as it has been written there, and everyone who swears by this, will be judged in like manner.”
4 και εξοισω αυτο λεγει κυριος παντοκρατωρ και εισελευσεται εις τον οικον του κλεπτου και εις τον οικον του ομνυοντος τω ονοματι μου επι ψευδει και καταλυσει εν μεσω του οικου αυτου και συντελεσει αυτον και τα ξυλα αυτου και τους λιθους αυτου4 I will bring it forth, says the Lord of hosts, and it will approach to the house of the thief, and to the house of him who swears falsely by my name, and it will remain in the midst of his house and will consume it, with its wood and its stones.
5 και εξηλθεν ο αγγελος ο λαλων εν εμοι και ειπεν προς με αναβλεψον τοις οφθαλμοις σου και ιδε τι το εκπορευομενον τουτο5 And the angel had departed, who was speaking with me. And he said to me, “Lift up your eyes, and see what this is, that goes forth.”
6 και ειπα τι εστιν και ειπεν τουτο το μετρον το εκπορευομενον και ειπεν αυτη η αδικια αυτων εν παση τη γη6 And I said, “What, then, is it?” And he said, “This is a container going forth.” And he said, “This is their eye in all the earth.”
7 και ιδου ταλαντον μολιβου εξαιρομενον και ιδου μια γυνη εκαθητο εν μεσω του μετρου7 And behold, a talent of lead was being carried; and behold, one woman sitting in the middle of the container.
8 και ειπεν αυτη εστιν η ανομια και ερριψεν αυτην εν μεσω του μετρου και ερριψεν τον λιθον του μολιβου εις το στομα αυτης8 And he said, “This is impiety.” And he cast her into the middle of the container, and he sent the weight of lead into its mouth.
9 και ηρα τους οφθαλμους μου και ειδον και ιδου δυο γυναικες εκπορευομεναι και πνευμα εν ταις πτερυξιν αυτων και αυται ειχον πτερυγας ως πτερυγας εποπος και ανελαβον το μετρον ανα μεσον της γης και ανα μεσον του ουρανου9 And I lifted up my eyes and I saw. And behold, two women were departing, and a spirit was in their wings, and they had wings like the wings of a kite, and they lifted up the container between earth and heaven.
10 και ειπα προς τον αγγελον τον λαλουντα εν εμοι που αυται αποφερουσιν το μετρον10 And I said to the angel who was speaking with me, “Where are they taking the container?”
11 και ειπεν προς με οικοδομησαι αυτω οικιαν εν γη βαβυλωνος και ετοιμασαι και θησουσιν αυτο εκει επι την ετοιμασιαν αυτου11 And he said to me, “To a house that may be built for it in the land of Shinar, and so that it may be established and set there upon its own base.”
