Then the angel who talked with me came forward ,
and said to me , "
Lift up now your eyes ,
and see what is this that is appearing ."
*
I said , "
What is it ?"
He said , "
This is the ephah {
An ephah is a measure of volume of about 22 litres ,

gallons ,
or about 23 of a bushel . }
basket that is appearing ."
He said moreover , "
This is their appearance in all the land
* (
and behold ,
a talent {
A talent is a weight of about 34 kilograms or 75 pounds .}
of lead was lifted up );
and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the ephah basket ."
*
He said , "
This is Wickedness ";
and he threw her down into the midst of the ephah basket ;
and he threw the weight of lead on its mouth .
*
Then lifted I up my eyes ,
and saw ,
and behold ,
there were two women ,
and the wind was in their wings .
Now they had wings like the wings of a stork ,
and they lifted up the ephah basket between earth and the sky .
*
Then I said to the angel who talked with me , "
Where are these carrying the ephah basket ?"
*
He said to me , "
To build her a house in the land of Shinar .
When it is prepared ,
she will be set there in her own place ."
