2 Esdras 2:3 Context
1Thus saith the Lord, I brought this people out of bondage, and I gave them my commandments by menservants the prophets; whom they would not hear, but despised my counsels. 2The mother that bare them saith unto them, Go your way, ye children; for I am a widow and forsaken. 3I brought you up with gladness; but with sorrow and heaviness have I lost you: for ye have sinned before the Lord your God, and done that thing that is evil before him. 4But what shall I now do unto you? I am a widow and forsaken: go your way, O my children, and ask mercy of the Lord. 5As for me, O father, I call upon thee for a witness over the mother of these children, which would not keep my covenant, 6That thou bring them to confusion, and their mother to a spoil, that there may be no offspring of them.
