| 1 | And I turned and lifted up my eyes: and I saw, and behold a volume flying. | Καὶ ἐπέστρεψα, καὶ ᾖρα τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου, καὶ ἴδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ δρέπανον πετόμενον. |
| 2 | And he said to me: What seest thou? And I said: I see a volume flying: the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits. | Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, τί σὺ βλέπεις; καὶ εἶπα, ἐγὼ ὁρῶ δρέπανον πετόμενον μήκους πήχεων εἴκοσι, καὶ πλάτους πήχεων δέκα. |
| 3 | And he said to me: This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the earth: for every thief shall be judged as is there written: and every one that sweareth in like manner shall be judged by it. | Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, Αὕτη ἡ ἀρὰ ἡ ἐκπορευομένη ἐπὶ πρόσωπον πάσης τῆς γῆς· διότι πᾶς ὁ κλέπτης ἐκ τούτου ἕως θανάτου ἐκδικηθήσεται, καὶ πᾶς ὁ ἐπίορκος ἐκ τούτου ἐκδικηθήσεται. |
| 4 | I will bring it forth, saith the Lord of hosts: and it shall come to the house of the thief, and to the house of him that sweareth falsely by my name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it, with the timber thereof, and the stones thereof. | Καὶ ἐξοίσω αὐτὸ, λέγει Κύριος παντοκράτωρ, καὶ εἰσελεύσεται εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ κλέπτου, καὶ εἰς τὸν οἶκον τοῦ ὀμνύοντος τῷ ὀνόματί μου ἐπὶ ψεύδει, καὶ καταλύσει ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ οἴκου αὐτοῦ, καὶ συντελέσει αὐτὸν, καὶ τὰ ξύλα αὐτοῦ, καὶ τοὺς λίθους αὐτοῦ. |
| 5 | And the angel went forth that spoke in me, and he said to me: Lift up thy eyes, and see what this is, that goeth forth. | Καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ ἄγγελος ὁ λαλῶν ἐν ἐμοὶ, καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, ἀνάβλεψον τοῖς ὀφθαλμοῖς σου, καὶ ἴδε τὸ ἐκπορευόμενον τοῦτο. |
| 6 | And I said: What is it? And he said: This is a vessel going forth. And he said: This is their eye in all the earth. | Καὶ εἶπα, τί ἐστι; καὶ εἶπε, τοῦτο τὸ μέτρον τὸ ἐκπορευόμενον· καὶ εἶπεν, αὕτη ἡ ἀδικία αὐτῶν ἐν πάσῃ τῇ γῇ. |
| 7 | And behold a talent of lead was carried, and behold a woman sitting in the midst of the vessel. | Καὶ ἰδοὺ τάλαντον μολίβδου ἐξαιρόμενον· καὶ ἰδοὺ γυνὴ μία ἐκάθητο ἐν μέσῳ τοῦ μέτρου. |
| 8 | And he said: This is wickedness. And he cast her into the midst of the vessel, and cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof. | Καὶ εἶπεν, αὕτη ἐστὶν ἡ ἀνομία· καὶ ἔῤῥιψεν αὐτὴν εἰς μέσον τοῦ μέτρου, καὶ ἔῤῥιψε τὸν λίθον τοῦ μολίβδου εἰς τὸ στόμα αὐτῆς. |
| 9 | And I lifted up my eyes and looked: and behold there came out two women, and wind was in their wings, and they had wings like the wings of a kite: and they lifted up the vessel between the earth and the heaven. | Καὶ ᾖρα τοὺς ὀφθαλμούς μου, καὶ ἴδον, καὶ ἰδοὺ δύο γυναῖκες ἐκπορευόμεναι, καὶ πνεῦμα ἐν ταῖς πτέρυξιν αὐτῶν, καὶ αὗται εἶχον πτέρυγας ἔποπος· καὶ ἀνέλαβον τὸ μέτρον ἀναμέσον τῆς γῆς, καὶ ἀναμέσον τοῦ οὐρανοῦ. |
| 10 | And I said to the angel that spoke in me: Whither do these carry the vessel? | Καὶ εἶπα πρὸς τὸν ἄγγελον τὸν λαλοῦντα ἐν ἐμοὶ, ποῦ αὗται ἀποφέρουσι τὸ μέτρον; |
| 11 | And he said to me: That a house may be built for it in the land of Sennaar, and that it may be established, and set there upon its own basis. | Καὶ εἶπε πρὸς μὲ, οἰκοδομῆσαι αὐτῷ οἰκίαν ἐν γῇ Βαβυλῶνος, καὶ ἑτοιμάσαι, καὶ θήσουσιν αὐτὸ ἐκεῖ ἐπὶ τὴν ἑτοιμασίαν αὐτοῦ. |
