2 Esdras 5:32

2 Esdras 5:32 Context

³⁰If thou didst so much hate thy people, yet shouldest thou punish them with thine owne hands. ³¹Now when I had spoken these words, the Angell that came to me the night afore, was sent vnto me, ³²And said vnto me, Heare me, and I will instruct thee, hearken to the thing that I say, & I shal tell thee more. ³³And I said, Speake on, my Lord: then said he vnto me, thou art sore troubled in minde for Israels sake: louest thou that people better then hee that made them? ³⁴And I said, No Lord, but of very griefe haue I spoken: For my reines paine me euery houre, while I labour to comprehend the way of the most High, and to seeke out part of his iudgement.
