I looked up again, and I saw a flying scroll.

“What do you see?” he asked. And I replied, “A flying scroll, twenty cubits long and ten cubits wide.

“That,” he explained to me, “is the curse which goes out over the whole land. For everyone who has stolen, as is forbidden on one side [of the scroll], has gone unpunished; and everyone who has sworn [falsely], as is forbidden on the other side of it, has gone unpunished.

[But] I have sent it forth—declares the LORD of Hosts—and [the curse] shall enter the house of the thief and the house of the one who swears falsely by My name, and it shall lodge inside their houses and shall consume them to the last timber and stone.

Then the angel who talked with me came forward and said, “Now look up and note this other object that is approaching.

I asked, “What is it?” And he said, “This tub that is approaching—this,” said he, “is their eye in all the land.

And behold, a disk of lead was lifted, revealing a woman seated inside the tub.

“That,” he said, “is Wickedness”; and, thrusting her down into the tub, he pressed the leaden weight into its mouth.

I looked up again and saw two women come soaring with the wind in their wings—they had wings like those of a stork—and carry off the tub between earth and sky.

“Where are they taking the tub?” I asked the angel who talked with me.

And he answered, “To build a shrine for it in the land of Shinar; [a stand] shall be erected for it, and it shall be set down there upon the stand.

I looked up again, and I saw: Four chariots were coming out from between the two mountains; the mountains were of copper.

The horses of the first chariot were bay, the horses of the second chariot were black.

the horses of the third chariot were white, and the horses of the fourth chariot were spotted—dappled.

And I spoke up and asked the angel who talked with me: “What are those, my lord.

In reply, the angel said to me, “Those are the four winds of heaven coming out after presenting themselves to the Lord of all the earth.

The one with the black horses is going out to the region of the north; the white ones have gone out to what is to the west of them; the spotted ones have gone out to the region of the south.

and the dappled ones have gone out…” They were ready to start out and range the earth, and he gave them the order, “Start out and range the earth!” And they ranged the earth.

Then he alerted me, and said to me, “Take good note! Those that went out to the region of the north have done my pleasure in the region of the north.

The word of the LORD came to me.

Receive from the exiled community—from Heldai, Tobijah, and Jedaiah, who have come from Babylon—and you, in turn, proceed the same day to the house of Josiah son of Zephaniah.

Take silver and gold and make crowns. Place [one] on the head of High Priest Joshua son of Jehozadak.

and say to him, “Thus said the LORD of Hosts: Behold, a man called the Branch shall branch out from the place where he is, and he shall build the Temple of the LORD.

He shall build the Temple of the LORD and shall assume majesty, and he shall sit on his throne and rule. And there shall also be a priest seated on his throne, and harmonious understanding shall prevail between them.

The crowns shall remain in the Temple of the LORD as a memorial to Helem, Tobijah, Jedaiah, and Hen son of Zephaniah.

Men from far away shall come and take part in the building of the Temple of the LORD, and you shall know that I have been sent to you by the LORD of Hosts—if only you will obey the LORD your God.
