2 Esdras 10:46

2 Esdras 10:46 Context

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. ⁴⁶But after thirty years Solomon builded the city and offered offerings: and then bare the barren a son. ⁴⁷And whereas she told thee that she nourished him with labour: that was the dwelling in Jerusalem. ⁴⁸But whereas she said unto thee, That my son coming into his marriage chamber happened to have a fail, and died: this was the destruction that came to Jerusalem. ⁴⁹And, behold, thou sawest her likeness, and because she mourned for her son, thou begannest to comfort her: and of these things which have chanced, these are to be opened unto thee.
