וָאֹמַר מַה־הִיא וַיֹּאמֶר זֹאת הָֽאֵיפָה הַיּוֹצֵאת וַיֹּאמֶר זֹאת עֵינָם בְּכָל־הָאָֽרֶץ
And I said: ‘What is it?’ And he said: ‘This is the measure that goeth forth.’ He said moreover: ‘This is their eye in all the land—
וְהִנֵּה כִּכַּר עֹפֶרֶת נִשֵּׂאת וְזֹאת אִשָּׁה אַחַת יוֹשֶׁבֶת בְּתוֹךְ הָאֵיפָֽה
and, behold, there was lifted up a round piece of lead—and this is a woman sitting in the midst of the measure.’
וַיֹּאמֶר זֹאת הָרִשְׁעָה וַיַּשְׁלֵךְ אֹתָהּ אֶל־תּוֹךְ הָֽאֵיפָה וַיַּשְׁלֵךְ אֶת־אֶבֶן הָעֹפֶרֶת אֶל־פִּֽיהָ

וָאֹמַר אֶל־הַמַּלְאָךְ הַדֹּבֵר בִּי אָנָה הֵמָּה מֽוֹלִכוֹת אֶת־הָאֵיפָֽה
Then said I to the angel that spoke with me: ‘Whither do these bear the measure?’
