2 Esdras 10:20

2 Esdras 10:20 Context

¹⁸And she said vnto me, That will I not doe: I will not goe into the city, but here will I die. ¹⁹So I proceeded to speake further vnto her, and said, ²⁰Doe not so, but bee counselled by me: for how many are the aduersities of Sion? Bee comforted in regard of the sorow of Ierusalem. ²¹For thou seest that our Sanctuary is laid waste, our Altar broken downe, our Temple destroyed. ²²Our Psaltery is laid on þ^e ground, our song is put to silence, our reioycing is at an end, the light of our candlesticke is put out, the Arke of our Couenant is spoiled, our holy things are defiled, and the Name that is called vpon vs, is almost prophaned: our children are put to shame, our priests are burnt, our Leuites are gone into captiuitie, our virgines are defiled, and our wiues rauished, our righteous men caried away, our litle ones destroyed, our yong men are brought in bondage, and our strong men are become weake.
