Zechariah 5:3

Zechariah's Sixth Vision

² He asked me: What do you see? I said: I see a flying scroll. It is thirty feet long and fifteen feet wide. ³ Then he said to me, “This is the curse that is going forth over the face of the whole land; surely everyone who steals will be purged away according to the writing on one side, and everyone who swears will be purged away according to the writing on the other side. ⁴ I will cause it to happen, said Jehovah of Hosts, and it will enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of he who swears falsely by my name. The curse will abide in the midst of his house and will consume it with the timber and the stones of the house.
