1 Then again lifting up my eyes I saw a roll in flight through the air.
1 Y TORNÉME, y alcé mis ojos, y miré, y he aquí un rollo que volaba.
2 And he said to me, What do you see? And I said, A roll going through the air; it is twenty cubits long and ten cubits wide.
2 Y díjome: ¿Qué ves? Y respondí: Veo un rollo que vuela, de veinte codos de largo, y diez codos de ancho.
3 Then he said to me, This is the curse which goes out over the face of all the land: for long enough has every thief gone without punishment, and long enough has every taker of false oaths gone without punishment.
3 Díjome entonces: Esta es la maldición que sale sobre la haz de toda la tierra; porque todo aquel que hurta, (como [está] de la una parte del rollo) será destruído; y todo aquel que jura, (como [está] de la otra parte del rollo) será destruído.
4 And I will send it out, says the Lord of armies, and it will go into the house of the thief and into the house of him who takes a false oath by my name: and it will be in his house, causing its complete destruction, with its woodwork and its stones.
4 Yo la saqué, dice Jehová de los ejércitos, y vendrá á la casa del ladrón, y á la casa del que jura falsamente en mi nombre; y permanecerá en medio de su casa, y consumirála, con sus enmaderamientos y sus piedras.
5 And the angel who was talking to me went out and said to me, Let your eyes be lifted up now, and see the ephah which is going out.
5 Y salió aquel ángel que hablaba conmigo, y díjome: Alza ahora tus ojos, y mira qué es esto que sale.
6 And I said, What is it? And he said, This is an ephah which is going out. And he said further, This is their evil-doing in all the land.
6 Y dije: ¿Qué es? Y él dijo: Este es un epha que sale. Además dijo: Este es el ojo de ellos en toda la tierra.
7 And I saw a round cover of lead lifted up; and a woman was seated in the middle of the ephah.
7 Y he aquí, traían un talento de plomo, y una mujer estaba asentada en medio de aquel epha.
8 And he said, This is Sin; and pushing her down into the ephah, he put the weight of lead on the mouth of it.
8 Y él dijo: Esta es la Maldad; y echóla dentro del epha, y echó la masa de plomo en su boca.
9 And lifting up my eyes I saw two women coming out, and the wind was in their wings; and they had wings like the wings of a stork: and they took the ephah, lifting it up between earth and heaven.
9 Alcé luego mis ojos, y miré, y he aquí dos mujeres que salían, y traían viento en sus alas, y tenían alas como de cigüeña, y alzaron el epha entre la tierra y los cielos.
10 And I said to the angel who was talking to me, Where are they taking the ephah?
10 Y dije al ángel que hablaba conmigo: ¿A dónde llevan el epha?
11 And he said to me, To make a house for her in the land of Shinar: and they will make a place ready, and put her there in the place which is hers.
11 Y él me respondió: Para que le sea edificada casa en tierra de Shinar: y será asentado y puesto allá sobre su asiento.
