6And I say, `What [is] it?` And he saith, `This -- the ephah that is coming forth.` And he saith, `This [is] their aspect in all the land.
7And lo, a cake of lead lifted up; and this [is] a woman sitting in the midst of the ephah.`
8And he saith, `This [is] the wicked woman.` And he casteth her unto the midst of the ephah, and casteth the weight of lead on its mouth.
9And I lift up mine eyes, and see, and lo, two women are coming forth, and wind in their wings; and they have wings like wings of the stork, and they lift up the ephah between the earth and the heavens.
10And I say unto the messenger who is speaking with me, `Whither [are] they causing the ephah to go?`
