| 8. | He said, "This is Wickedness;" and he threw her down into the midst of the ephah basket; and he threw the weight of lead on its mouth. | And he said, This is Sin; and pushing her down into the ephah, he put the weight of lead on the mouth of it. | And he said, This is wickedness. And he cast it into the midst of the ephah; and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof. | ||

| 10. | Then said I to the angel who talked with me, "Where are these carrying the ephah basket?" | And I said to the angel who was talking to me, Where are they taking the ephah? | Then said I to the angel that talked with me, Whither do these bear the ephah? | ||
| 11. | He said to me, "To build her a house in the land of Shinar. When it is prepared, she will be set there in her own place." | And he said to me, To make a house for her in the land of Shinar: and they will make a place ready, and put her there in the place which is hers. | And he said unto me, To build it an house in the land of Shinar: and it shall be established, and set there upon her own base. | ||
