Zechariah 5:1-4

1Then I lifted up my eyes again and looked, and behold, there was a flying 1scroll. 2And he said to me, “2What do you see?” And I answered, “I see a flying scroll; its length is twenty 3cubits and its width ten cubits.” 3Then he said to me, “This is the 4curse that is going forth over the face of the whole 5land; surely everyone who 6steals will be purged away according to 7the writing on one side, and everyone who 8swears will be purged away according to 9the writing on the other side. 4I will 10make it go forth,” declares the Lord of hosts, “and it will 11enter the house of the 12thief and the house of the one who swears falsely by My name; and it will spend the night within that house and 13consume it with its timber and stones.”
