ined vain things;

2 Esdr 7:23
And deceived themselves by their wicked deeds; and said of
the most High, that he is not; and knew not his ways:

2 Esdr 7:24

his statutes have they not been faithful, and have not performed
his works.

2 Esdr 7:25

for the full are the full things.

2 Esdr 7:26
Behold, the time shall come, that these tokens which I have
told thee shall come to pass, and the bride shall appear, and
she coming forth shall be seen, that now is withdrawn from the
earth.

2 Esdr 7:27
And whosoever is delivered from the foresaid evils shall see
my wonders.

2 Esdr 7:28
For my son Jesus shall be revealed with those that be with
him, and they that remain shall rejoice within four hundred
years.

2 Esdr 7:29
After these years shall my son Christ die, and all men that
have life.

2 Esdr 7:30
And the world shall be turned into the old silence seven
days, like as in the former judgments: so that no man shall
remain.

2 Esdr 7:31

be raised up, and that shall die that is corrupt

2 Esdr 7:32
And the earth shall restore those that are asleep in her, and
so shall the dust those that dwell in silence, and the secret
places shall deliver those souls that were committed unto them.

2 Esdr 7:33
And the most High shall appear upon the seat of judgment, and
misery shall pass away, and the long suffering shall have an
end:

2 Esdr 7:34
But judgment only shall remain, truth shall stand, and faith
shall wax strong:

2 Esdr 7:35
And the work shall follow, and the reward shall be shewed,
and the good deeds shall be of force, and wicked deeds shall
bear no rule.

2 Esdr 7:36

them that should come to the sanctuary:

2 Esdr 7:39
And Helias for those that received rain; and for the dead,
that he might live:

2 Esdr 7:40
And Ezechias for the people in the time of Sennacherib: and
many for many.

2 Esdr 7:41
Even so now, seeing corruption is grown up, and wickedness
increased, and the righteous have prayed for the ungodly:
wherefore shall it not be so now also?

2 Esdr 7:
