Zechariah 5:6-8

Expanded Bible

⁶ “What is it?” I asked.

He answered, “It is a ·measuring basket [^Lephah] going out.” He also said, “It is ·a symbol of the people’s sins [^Ltheir iniquity; or their appearance; ^Ltheir eye] in all the land.”

⁷ Then the lid made of lead was raised, and there was a woman sitting inside the basket. ⁸ The angel said, “The woman ·stands for [^Lis] wickedness.” Then he pushed her back into the basket and put the lid back down.
