Zechariah 5:2-6 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

2. and the angel asked, “What do you see?”“A flying scroll,” I answered. “About nine metres long and four and a half metres wide.”

3. Then he told me:This scroll puts a curse on everyone in the land who steals or tells lies. The writing on one side tells about the destruction of those who steal, while the writing on the other side tells about the destruction of those who lie.

4. The Lord All-Powerful has said, “I am sending this scroll into the house of everyone who is a robber or tells lies in my name, and it will remain there until every piece of wood and stone in that house crumbles.”

5. Now the angel who was there to explain the visions came over and said, “Look up and tell me what you see coming.”

6. “I don't know what it is,” was my reply.“It's a big basket,” he said. “And it shows what everyone in the land has in mind.”
