2 Esdras 10:42

2 Esdras 10:42 Context

³⁹He hath seen that thy way is right: for that thou sorrowest continually for thy people, and makest great lamentation for Sion. ⁴⁰This therefore is the meaning of the vision which thou lately sawest: ⁴¹Thou sawest a woman mourning, and thou begannest to comfort her: ⁴²But now seest thou the likeness of the woman no more, but there appeared unto thee a city builded. ⁴³And whereas she told thee of the death of her son, this is the solution: ⁴⁴This woman, whom thou sawest is Sion: and whereas she said unto thee, even she whom thou seest as a city builded, ⁴⁵Whereas, I say, she said unto thee, that she hath been thirty years barren: those are the thirty years wherein there was no offering made in her.
