2 Esdras 9:20 Context
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. 21And I saw and spared it greatly, and haue kept me a grape of the cluster, and a plant of a great people. 22Let the multitude perish then, which was borne in vaine, and let my grape be kept and my plant: for with great labour haue I made it perfect.
