- I looked again--and there before me was a flying scroll!
- He asked me, "What do you see?" I answered, "I see a flying scroll, thirty feet long and fifteen feet wide. "
- And he said to me, "This is the curse that is going out over the whole land; for according to what it says on one side, every thief will be banished, and according to what it says on the other, everyone who swears falsely will be banished.
- The LORD Almighty declares, 'I will send it out, 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 destroy it, both its timbers and its stones.' "
- Then the angel who was speaking to me came forward and said to me, "Look up and see what this is that is appearing."

- Then I lifted up my eyes again and looked, and behold, there was a flying scroll.
- And he said to me, "What do you see?" And I answered, "I see a flying scroll; its length is twenty cubits and its width ten cubits."
- Then he said to me, "This is the curse that is going forth over the face of the whole land; surely everyone who steals will be purged away according to the writing on one side, and everyone who swears will be purged away according to the writing on the other side.
- "I will make it go forth," declares the LORD of hosts, "and it will enter the house of the thief and the house of the one who swears falsely by My name; and it will spend the night within that house and consume it with its timber and stones."
- Then the angel who was speaking with me went out and said to me, "Lift up now your eyes and see what this is going forth."
