2Esdr 1:40
Nahum, and Abacuc, Sophonias, Aggeus, Zachary, and Malachy, which is called also an angel of the Lord. 2Esdr 2:1 Thus saith the Lord, I brought this people out of bondage, and I gave them my commandments by menservants the prophets; whom they would not hear, but despised my counsels. 2Esdr 2:2 The mother that bare them saith unto them, Go your way, ye children; for I am a widow and forsaken. 2Esdr 2:3 I brought you up with gladness; but with sorrow and heaviness have I lost you: for ye have sinned before the Lord your God, and done that thing that is evil before him. 2Esdr 2:4 But what shall I now do unto you? I am a widow and forsaken: go your way, O my children, and ask mercy of the Lord. 2Esdr 2:5 As for me, O father, I call upon thee for a witness over the mother of these children, which would not keep my covenant, 2Esdr 2:6 That thou bring them to confusion, and their mother to a spoil, that there may be no offspring of them. |
