2 Esdras 5:51 Context
49For like as a young child may not bring forth the things that belong to the aged, euen so haue I disposed the world which I created. 50And I asked and said, Seeing thou hast now giuen me the way, I will proceed to speak before thee: for our mother of whom thou hast told me that she is yong, draweth now nigh vnto age. 51He answered me and said, Aske a woman that beareth children, and shee shall tell thee. 52Say vnto her, Wherefore are not they whome thou hast now brought forth, like those that were before, but lesse of stature? 53And she shall answere thee, They that be borne in the strength of youth, are of one fashion, and they that are borne in the time of age (when the wombe faileth) are otherwise.
