2 Esdras 9:18

2 Esdras 9:18 Context

¹⁶Like as a waue is greater then a droppe. ¹⁷And he answered me, saying: like as the field is, so is also the seed: as the flowres be, such are the colours also: such as the workeman is, such also is the worke: and as the husbandman is himselfe, so is his husbandry also: for it was the time of the world. ¹⁸And now when I prepared the world, which was not yet made, euen for them to dwell in that now liue, no man spake against me. ¹⁹For then euery one obeyed, but now the maners of them which are created in this world that is made, are corrupted by a perpetuall seed, & by a law which is vnsearchable, rid themselues. ²⁰So I considered the world, and behold there was perill, because of the deuices that were come into it.
