2 Esdras 16:71

2 Esdras 16:71 Context

⁶⁸For, behold, the burning wrath of a great multitude is kindled over you, and they shall take away certain of you, and feed you, being idle, with things offered unto idols. ⁶⁹And they that consent unto them shall be had in derision and in reproach, and trodden under foot. ⁷⁰For there shall be in every place, and in the next cities, a great insurrection upon those that fear the Lord. ⁷¹They shall be like mad men, sparing none, but still spoiling and destroying those that fear the Lord. ⁷²For they shall waste and take away their goods, and cast them out of their houses. ⁷³Then shall they be known, who are my chosen; and they shall be tried as the gold in the fire. ⁷⁴Hear, O ye my beloved, saith the Lord: behold, the days of trouble are at hand, but I will deliver you from the same.
