2 Esdras 14:14

2 Esdras 14:14 Context

¹¹For the world is divided into twelve parts, and the ten parts of it are gone already, and half of a tenth part: ¹²And there remaineth that which is after the half of the tenth part. ¹³Now therefore set thine house in order, and reprove thy people, comfort such of them as be in trouble, and now renounce corruption, ¹⁴Let go from thee mortal thoughts, cast away the burdens of man, put off now the weak nature, ¹⁵And set aside the thoughts that are most heavy unto thee, and haste thee to flee from these times. ¹⁶For yet greater evils than those which thou hast seen happen shall be done hereafter. ¹⁷For look how much the world shall be weaker through age, so much the more shall evils increase upon them that dwell therein.
