Then I turned to look, and there was a flying scroll!

我又举目观看，见有一飞行的书卷。

我又举目观看，看哪，有一飞行的书卷。

我又举目观看，见有书卷在飞。

我又举目观看，看见有一卷飞行的书卷。

我又舉目觀看，見有一卷書飛行着。

我又舉目觀看，看哪，有一個飛行的書卷！

我復舉目、見一飛卷、

我復仰觀、見卷軸一舒、有若翻飛、

我復舉目而觀、見有一卷如飛、

I looked again, and there before me was a flying scroll.

I looked up again and saw a flying scroll.

Again I lifted my eyes and saw, and behold, a flying scroll!

I looked up again and saw a scroll flying through the air.

I looked up again and saw a flying scroll.

Then I raised my eyes again and looked, and behold, there was a flying scroll.

Then I turned and raised my eyes, and saw there a flying scroll.

Then again I lifted up mine eyes, and saw, and, behold, a flying roll.

I looked up again and saw a flying scroll.

Then I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a flying roll.

Then again I lifted up my eyes, and saw, and behold, a flying scroll.

Someone asked me,“ What do you see?” I replied,“ I see a flying scroll thirty feet long and fifteen feet wide.”

The LORD told me,“ Take a large tablet and inscribe these words on it with an ordinary stylus:‘ Maher-Shalal-Hash-Baz.’

Then the voice I had heard from heaven began to speak to me again,“ Go and take the open scroll in the hand of the angel who is standing on the sea and on the land.”So I went to the angel and asked him to give me the little scroll. He said to me,“ Take the scroll and eat it. It will make your stomach bitter, but it will be as sweet as honey in your mouth.”So I took the little scroll from the angel’s hand and ate it, and it did taste as sweet as honey in my mouth, but when I had eaten it, my stomach became bitter.Then they told me:“ You must prophesy again about many peoples, nations, languages, and kings.”

Then I saw in the right hand of the one who was seated on the throne a scroll written on the front and back and sealed with seven seals.And I saw a powerful angel proclaiming in a loud voice:“ Who is worthy to open the scroll and to break its seals?”But no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open the scroll or look into it.So I began weeping bitterly because no one was found who was worthy to open the scroll or to look into it.Then one of the elders said to me,“ Stop weeping! Look, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the root of David, has conquered; thus he can open the scroll and its seven seals.”Then I saw standing in the middle of the throne and of the four living creatures, and in the middle of the elders, a Lamb that appeared to have been killed. He had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.Then he came and took the scroll from the right hand of the one who was seated on the throne,and when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty- four elders threw themselves to the ground before the Lamb. Each of them had a harp and golden bowls full of incense( which are the prayers of the saints).They were singing a new song:“ You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals because you were killed, and at the cost of your own blood you have purchased for God persons from every tribe, language, people, and nation.You have appointed them as a kingdom and priests to serve our God, and they will reign on the earth.”Then I looked and heard the voice of many angels in a circle around the throne, as well as the living creatures and the elders. Their number was ten thousand times ten thousand– thousands times thousands–all of whom were singing in a loud voice:“ Worthy is the lamb who was killed to receive power and wealth and wisdom and might and honor and glory and praise!”Then I heard every creature– in heaven, on earth, under the earth, in the sea, and all that is in them– singing:“ To the one seated on the throne and to the Lamb be praise, honor, glory, and ruling power forever and ever!”And the four living creatures were saying“ Amen,” and the elders threw themselves to the ground and worshiped.

Then I looked and realized a hand was stretched out to me, and in it was a written scroll.He unrolled it before me, and it had writing on the front and back; written on it were laments, mourning, and woe.

The LORD spoke to Jeremiah in the fourth year that Jehoiakim son of Josiah was ruling over Judah.“ Get a scroll. Write on it everything I have told you to say about Israel, Judah, and all the other nations since I began to speak to you in the reign of Josiah until now.Perhaps when the people of Judah hear about all the disaster I intend to bring on them, they will all stop doing the evil things they have been doing. If they do, I will forgive their sins and the wicked things they have done.”So Jeremiah summoned Baruch son of Neriah. Then Jeremiah dictated to Baruch everything the LORD had told him to say and Baruch wrote it all down in a scroll.Then Jeremiah told Baruch,“ I am no longer allowed to go into the LORD’s temple.So you go there the next time all the people of Judah come in from their towns to fast in the LORD’s temple. Read out loud where all of them can hear you what I told you the LORD said, which you wrote in the scroll.

The officials put the scroll in the room of Elishama, the royal secretary, for safekeeping. Then they went to the court and reported everything to the king.The king sent Jehudi to get the scroll. He went and got it from the room of Elishama, the royal secretary. Then he himself read it to the king and all the officials who were standing around him.Since it was the ninth month of the year, the king was sitting in his winter quarters. A fire was burning in the firepot in front of him.As soon as Jehudi had read three or four columns of the scroll, the king would cut them off with a penknife and throw them on the fire in the firepot. He kept doing so until the whole scroll was burned up in the fire.Neither he nor any of his attendants showed any alarm when they heard all that had been read. Nor did they tear their clothes to show any grief or sorrow.

He held in his hand a little scroll that was open, and he put his right foot on the sea and his left on the land.

The LORD spoke to Jeremiah after Jehoiakim had burned the scroll containing what Jeremiah had spoken and Baruch had written down.“ Get another scroll and write on it everything that was written on the original scroll that King Jehoiakim of Judah burned.Tell King Jehoiakim of Judah,‘ The LORD says,“ You burned the scroll. You asked Jeremiah,‘ How dare you write in this scroll that the king of Babylon will certainly come and destroy this land and wipe out all the people and animals on it?’”So the LORD says concerning King Jehoiakim of Judah,“ None of his line will occupy the throne of David. His dead body will be thrown out to be exposed to scorching heat by day and frost by night.I will punish him and his descendants and the officials who serve him for the wicked things they have done. I will bring on them, the citizens of Jerusalem, and the people of Judah all the disaster that I threatened to do to them. I will punish them because I threatened them but they still paid no heed.”’”Then Jeremiah got another scroll and gave it to the scribe Baruch son of Neriah. As Jeremiah dictated, Baruch wrote on this scroll everything that had been on the scroll that King Jehoiakim of Judah burned in the fire. They also added on this scroll several other messages of the same kind.
