Then came forward, the messenger who was talking with me, - and said unto me - Lift up, I pray thee, thine eyes, and see what this is which is coming forth.

And I said, What is it? Then said he, This, is an ephah that is coming forth. And he said, This, is their iniquity, throughout all the land.

And lo! a leaden disc uplifted, - and here a certain woman, sitting inside the ephah.

Then said he, This, is Lawlessness. So he thrust her back inside the ephah, - and then thrust the leaden weight into the mouth thereof.

Then lifted I up mine eyes and looked, and lo! Two Women coming forward, with the wind in their wings, and, they, had wings, like the wings of the stork, - and bare up the ephah, between the earth and the heavens.

Then said I unto the messenger who was speaking with me, - Whither are they carrying the ephah?

And he said unto me, To build for it a house in the land of Shinar, - so shall it be ready, and they shall settle it there, upon its own base?
