Each and Every One

A vision the Lord God revealed to Zechariah the
priest and prophet when the Israelites were living
in Judah and Jerusalem in the Promised Land,
 after decades of Babylonian captivity:

Then I turned, and lifted up mine eyes, and looked, and behold a flying roll. And he said unto me, What seest thou? And I answered, I see a flying roll, the length thereof is twenty cubits, and the breadth thereof ten cubits. Then said he unto me, This is the curse that goeth forth over the face of the whole earth: for every one that stealeth shall be cut off as on this side according to it; and every one that sweareth shall be cut off as on that side according to it. I will bring it forth, saith the LORD of hosts, and it shall enter into the house of the thief, and into the house of him that sweareth falsely by name: and it shall remain in the midst of his house, and shall consume it with the timber thereof and the stones thereof.-Zechariah 5:1-4
