Zechariah 5:7-9
1599 Geneva Bible
7 And behold, there was lifted up a [a]talent of lead: and this is a [b]woman that sitteth in the midst of the Ephah.
8 And he said, This is [c]wickedness, and he cast it into the midst of the Ephah, and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof.
9 Then I lifted mine eyes, and looked: and behold, there came out two [d]women, and the wind was in their wings (for they had wings like the wings of a stork) and they lifted up the Ephah between the earth and the heaven.
