Zechariah 5:5-11
5After this the angelic messenger who had been speaking to me went out and said, “Look, see what is leaving.”
6I asked, “What is it?” And he replied, “It is a basket for measuring grain that is moving away from here.” Moreover, he said, “This is their ‘eye’ throughout all the earth.”
7Then a round lead cover was raised up, revealing a woman sitting inside the basket.
8He then said, “This woman represents wickedness,” and he pushed her down into the basket and placed the lead cover on top.
9Then I looked again and saw two women going forth with the wind in their wings (they had wings like those of a stork) and they lifted up the basket between the earth and the sky.
10I asked the messenger who was speaking to me, “Where are they taking the basket?”
11He replied, “To build a temple for her in the land of Babylonia. When it is finished, she will be placed there in her own residence.”
