2 Esdras 2:43
And in the midst of them there was a young man of a high stature, taller than all the rest, and upon every one of their heads he set crowns, and was more exalted; which I marvelled at greatly.

2 Esdras 2:44
So I asked the angel, and said, Sir, what are these?

2 Esdras 2:46
Then said I unto the angel, What young person is it that crowneth them, and giveth them palms in their hands?

2 Esdras 2:47
So he answered and said unto me, It is the Son of God, whom they have confessed in the world. Then began I greatly to commend them that stood so stiffly for the name of the Lord.

2 Esdras 3:1
In the thirtieth year after the ruin of the city I was in Babylon, and lay troubled upon my bed, and my thoughts came up over my heart:

2 Esdras 3:2
For I saw the desolation of Sion, and the wealth of them that dwelt at Babylon.

2 Esdras 3:3
And my spirit was sore moved, so that I began to speak words full of fear to the most High, and said,

2 Esdras 3:29
For when I came thither, and had seen impieties without number, then my soul saw many evildoers in this thirtieth year, so that my heart failed me.

2 Esdras 3:30
For I have seen how thou sufferest them sinning, and hast spared wicked doers: and hast destroyed thy people, and hast preserved thine enemies, and hast not signified it.

2 Esdras 3:31
I do not remember how this way may be left: Are they then of Babylon better than they of Sion?

2 Esdras 3:33
And yet their reward appeareth not, and their labour hath no fruit: for I have gone here and there through the heathen, and I see that they flow in wealth, and think not upon thy commandments.

2 Esdras 4:3
Then said I, Yea, my lord. And he answered me, and said, I am sent to shew thee three ways, and to set forth three similitudes before thee:

2 Esdras 4:4
Whereof if thou canst declare me one, I will shew thee also the way that thou desirest to see, and I shall shew thee from whence the wicked heart cometh.

2 Esdras 4:5
And I said, Tell on, my lord. Then said he unto me, Go thy way, weigh me the weight of the fire, or measure me the blast of the wind, or call me again the day that is past.

2 Esdras 4:6
Then answered I and said, What man is able to do that, that thou shouldest ask such things of me?

2 Esdras 4:7
And he said unto me, If I should ask thee how great dwellings are in the midst of the sea, or how many springs are in the beginning of the deep, or how many springs are above the firmament, or which are the outgoings of paradise:

2 Esdras 4:8
Peradventure thou wouldest say unto me, I never went down into the deep, nor as yet into hell, neither did I ever climb up into heaven.

2 Esdras 4:9
Nevertheless now have I asked thee but only of the fire and wind, and of the day wherethrough thou hast passed, and of things from which thou canst not be separated, and yet canst thou give me no answer of them.

2 Esdras 4:12
Then said I unto him, It were better that we were not at all, than that we should live still in wickedness, and to suffer, and not to know wherefore.

2 Esdras 4:13
He answered me, and said, I went into a forest into a plain, and the trees took counsel,

2 Esdras 4:19
I answered and said, Verily it is a foolish thought that they both have devised, for the ground is given unto the wood, and the sea also hath his place to bear his floods.

2 Esdras 4:22
Then answered I and said, I beseech thee, O Lord, let me have understanding:

2 Esdras 4:25
What will he then do unto his name whereby we are called? of these things have I asked.

2 Esdras 4:28
But as concerning the things whereof thou askest me, I will tell thee; for the evil is sown, but the destruction thereof is not yet come.

2 Esdras 4:33
Then I answered and said, How, and when shall these things come to pass? wherefore are our years few and evil?

2 Esdras 4:35
Did not the souls also of the righteous ask question of these things in their chambers, saying, How long shall I hope on this fashion? when cometh the fruit of the floor of our reward?

2 Esdras 4:38
Then answered I and said, O Lord that bearest rule, even we all are full of impiety.

2 Esdras 4:41
Then said I, No, Lord, that can she not. And he said unto me, In the grave the chambers of souls are like the womb of a woman:

2 Esdras 4:44
Then answered I and said, If I have found favour in thy sight, and if it be possible, and if I be meet therefore,

2 Esdras 4:46
What is past I know, but what is for to come I know not.

2 Esdras 4:47
And he said unto me, Stand up upon the right side, and I shall expound the similitude unto thee.

2 Esdras 4:48
So I stood, and saw, and, behold, an hot burning oven passed by before me: and it happened that when the flame was gone by I looked, and, behold, the smoke remained still.

2 Esdras 4:51
Then I prayed, and said, May I live, thinkest thou, until that time? or what shall happen in those days?

2 Esdras 4:52
He answered me, and said, As for the tokens whereof thou askest me, I may tell thee of them in part: but as touching thy life, I am not sent to shew thee; for I do not know it.

2 Esdras 5:13
To shew thee such tokens I have leave; and if thou wilt pray again, and weep as now, and fast even days, thou shalt hear yet greater things.

2 Esdras 5:14
Then I awaked, and an extreme fearfulness went through all my body, and my mind was troubled, so that it fainted.

2 Esdras 5:19
Then said I unto him, Go thy ways from me, and come not nigh me. And he heard what I said, and went from me.

2 Esdras 5:20
And so I fasted seven days, mourning and weeping, like as Uriel the angel commanded me.

2 Esdras 5:22
And my soul recovered the spirit of understanding, and I began to talk with the most High again,

2 Esdras 5:31
Now when I had spoken these words, the angel that came to me the night afore was sent unto me,

2 Esdras 5:32
And said unto me, Hear me, and I will instruct thee; hearken to the thing that I say, and I shall tell thee more.

2 Esdras 5:33
And I said, Speak on, my Lord. Then said he unto me, Thou art sore troubled in mind for Israel's sake: lovest thou that people better than he that made them?

2 Esdras 5:34
And I said, No, Lord: but of very grief have I spoken: for my reins pain me every hour, while I labour to comprehend the way of the most High, and to seek out part of his judgment.

2 Esdras 5:35
And he said unto me, Thou canst not. And I said, Wherefore, Lord? whereunto was I born then? or why was not my mother's womb then my grave, that I might not have seen the travail of Jacob, and the wearisome toil of the stock of Israel?

2 Esdras 5:37
Open me the places that are closed, and bring me forth the winds that in them are shut up, shew me the image of a voice: and then I will declare to thee the thing that thou labourest to know.

2 Esdras 5:38
And I said, O Lord that bearest rule, who may know these things, but he that hath not his dwelling with men?

2 Esdras 5:39
As for me, I am unwise: how may I then speak of these things whereof thou askest me?

2 Esdras 5:40
Then said he unto me, Like as thou canst do none of these things that I have spoken of, even so canst thou not find out my judgment, or in the end the love that I have promised unto my people.

2 Esdras 5:41
And I said, Behold, O Lord, yet art thou nigh unto them that be reserved till the end: and what shall they do that have been before me, or we that be now, or they that shall come after us?

2 Esdras 5:42
And he said unto me, I will liken my judgment unto a ring: like as there is no slackness of the last, even so there is no swiftness of the first.

2 Esdras 5:43
So I answered and said, Couldest thou not make those that have been made, and be now, and that are for to come, at once; that thou mightest shew thy judgment the sooner?

2 Esdras 5:45
And I said, As thou hast said unto thy servant, that thou, which givest life to all, hast given life at once to the creature that thou hast created, and the creature bare it: even so it might now also bear them that now be present at once.

2 Esdras 5:47
And I said, She cannot: but must do it by distance of time.

2 Esdras 5:48
Then said he unto me, Even so have I given the womb of the earth to those that be sown in it in their times.

2 Esdras 5:49
For like as a young child may not bring forth the things that belong to the aged, even so have I disposed the world which I created.

2 Esdras 5:50
And I asked, and said, Seeing thou hast now given me the way, I will proceed to speak before thee: for our mother, of whom thou hast told me that she is young, draweth now nigh unto age.

2 Esdras 5:56
Then said I, Lord, I beseech thee, if I have found favour in thy sight, shew thy servant by whom thou visitest thy creature.

2 Esdras 6:6
Then did I consider these things, and they all were made through me alone, and through none other: by me also they shall be ended, and by none other.

2 Esdras 6:7
Then answered I and said, What shall be the parting asunder of the times? or when shall be the end of the first, and the beginning of it that followeth?

2 Esdras 6:11
I answered then and said, O Lord that bearest rule, if I have found favour in thy sight,

2 Esdras 6:12
I beseech thee, shew thy servant the end of thy tokens, whereof thou shewedst me part the last night.

2 Esdras 6:17
And it happened, that when I had heard it I stood up upon my feet, and hearkened, and, behold, there was a voice that spake, and the sound of it was like the sound of many waters.

2 Esdras 6:18
And it said, Behold, the days come, that I will begin to draw nigh, and to visit them that dwell upon the earth,

2 Esdras 6:20
And when the world, that shall begin to vanish away, shall be finished, then will I shew these tokens: the books shall be opened before the firmament, and they shall see all together:

2 Esdras 6:25
Whosoever remaineth from all these that I have told thee shall escape, and see my salvation, and the end of your world.

2 Esdras 6:29
And when he talked with me, behold, I looked by little and little upon him before whom I stood.

2 Esdras 6:30
And these words said he unto me; I am come to shew thee the time of the night to come.

2 Esdras 6:31
If thou wilt pray yet more, and fast seven days again, I shall tell thee greater things by day than I have heard.

2 Esdras 6:35
And it came to pass after this, that I wept again, and fasted seven days in like manner, that I might fulfil the three weeks which he told me.

2 Esdras 6:36
And in the eighth night was my heart vexed within me again, and I began to speak before the most High.

2 Esdras 6:38
And I said, O Lord, thou spakest from the beginning of the creation, even the first day, and saidst thus; Let heaven and earth be made; and thy word was a perfect work.

2 Esdras 6:55
All this have I spoken before thee, O Lord, because thou madest the world for our sakes

2 Esdras 7:1
And when I had made an end of speaking these words, there was sent unto me the angel which had been sent unto me the nights afore:

2 Esdras 7:2
And he said unto me, Up, Esdras, and hear the words that I am come to tell thee.

2 Esdras 7:3
And I said, Speak on, my God. Then said he unto me, The sea is set in a wide place, that it might be deep and great.

2 Esdras 7:10
And I said, It is so, Lord. Then said he unto me, Even so also is Israel's portion.

2 Esdras 7:11
Because for their sakes I made the world: and when Adam transgressed my statutes, then was decreed that now is done.

2 Esdras 7:17
Then answered I and said, O Lord that bearest rule, thou hast ordained in thy law, that the righteous should inherit these things, but that the ungodly should perish.

2 Esdras 7:26
Behold, the time shall come, that these tokens which I have told thee shall come to pass, and the bride shall appear, and she coming forth shall be seen, that now is withdrawn from the earth.

2 Esdras 7:36
Then said I, Abraham prayed first for the Sodomites, and Moses for the fathers that sinned in the wilderness:

2 Esdras 7:46
I answered then and said, This is my first and last saying, that it had been better not to have given the earth unto Adam: or else, when it was given him, to have restrained him from sinning.

2 Esdras 7:58
That, if he be overcome, he shall suffer as thou hast said: but if he get the victory, he shall receive the thing that I say.

2 Esdras 7:62
I answered then, and said, I know, Lord, that the most High is called merciful, in that he hath mercy upon them which are not yet come into the world,

2 Esdras 8:2
I will tell thee a similitude, Esdras; As when thou askest the earth, it shall say unto thee, that it giveth much mould whereof earthen vessels are made, but little dust that gold cometh of: even so is the course of this present world.

2 Esdras 8:4
So answered I and said, Swallow then down, O my soul, understanding, and devour wisdom.

2 Esdras 8:15
Now therefore, Lord, I will speak; touching man in general, thou knowest best; but touching thy people, for whose sake I am sorry;

2 Esdras 8:16
And for thine inheritance, for whose cause I mourn; and for Israel, for whom I am heavy; and for Jacob, for whose sake I am troubled;

2 Esdras 8:17
Therefore will I begin to pray before thee for myself and for them: for I see the falls of us that dwell in the land.

2 Esdras 8:18
But I have heard the swiftness of the judge which is to come.

2 Esdras 8:19
Therefore hear my voice, and understand my words, and I shall speak before thee. This is the beginning of the words of Esdras, before he was taken up: and I said,

2 Esdras 8:25
For while I live I will speak, and so long as I have understanding I will answer.

2 Esdras 8:38
For indeed I will not think on the disposition of them which have sinned before death, before judgment, before destruction:

2 Esdras 8:39
But I will rejoice over the disposition of the righteous, and I will remember also their pilgrimage, and the salvation, and the reward, that they shall have.

2 Esdras 8:40
Like as I have spoken now, so shall it come to pass.

2 Esdras 8:42
I answered then and said, If I have found grace, let me speak.

2 Esdras 8:47
For thou comest far short that thou shouldest be able to love my creature more than I: but I have ofttimes drawn nigh unto thee, and unto it, but never to the unrighteous.

2 Esdras 8:62
These things have I not shewed unto all men, but unto thee, and a few like thee. Then answered I and said,

2 Esdras 9:1
He answered me then, and said, Measure thou the time diligently in itself: and when thou seest part of the signs past, which I have told thee before,

2 Esdras 9:8
Shall be preserved from the said perils, and shall see my salvation in my land, and within my borders: for I have sanctified them for me from the beginning.

2 Esdras 9:14
Then answered I and said,

2 Esdras 9:15
I have said before, and now do speak, and will speak it also hereafter, that there be many more of them which perish, than of them which shall be saved:

2 Esdras 9:18
And now when I prepared the world, which was not yet made, even for them to dwell in that now live, no man spake against me.

2 Esdras 9:20
So I considered the world, and, behold, there was peril because of the devices that were come into it.

2 Esdras 9:21
And I saw, and spared it greatly, and have kept me a grape of the cluster, and a plant of a great people.

2 Esdras 9:22
Let the multitude perish then, which was born in vain; and let my grape be kept, and my plant; for with great labour have I made it perfect.

2 Esdras 9:25
And pray unto the Highest continually, then will I come and talk with thee.

2 Esdras 9:26
So I went my way into the field which is called Ardath, like as he commanded me; and there I sat among the flowers, and did eat of the herbs of the field, and the meat of the same satisfied me.

2 Esdras 9:27
After seven days I sat upon the grass, and my heart was vexed within me, like as before:

2 Esdras 9:28
And I opened my mouth, and began to talk before the most High, and said,

2 Esdras 9:31
For, behold, I sow my law in you, and it shall bring fruit in you, and ye shall be honoured in it for ever.

2 Esdras 9:38
And when I spake these things in my heart, I looked back with mine eyes, and upon the right side I saw a woman, and, behold, she mourned and wept with a loud voice, and was much grieved in heart, and her clothes were rent, and she had ashes upon her head.

2 Esdras 9:39
Then let I my thoughts go that I was in, and turned me unto her,

2 Esdras 9:41
And she said unto me, Sir, let me alone, that I may bewail myself, and add unto my sorrow, for I am sore vexed in my mind, and brought very low.

2 Esdras 9:42
And I said unto her, What aileth thee? tell me.

2 Esdras 9:43
She said unto me, I thy servant have been barren, and had no child, though I had an husband thirty years,

2 Esdras 9:44
And those thirty years I did nothing else day and night, and every hour, but make my, prayer to the Highest.

2 Esdras 9:45
After thirty years God heard me thine handmaid, looked upon my misery, considered my trouble, and gave me a son: and I was very glad of him, so was my husband also, and all my neighbours: and we gave great honour unto the Almighty.

2 Esdras 9:46
And I nourished him with great travail.

2 Esdras 9:47
So when he grew up, and came to the time that he should have a wife, I made a feast.

2 Esdras 10:2
Then we all overthrew the lights, and all my neighbours rose up to comfort me: so I took my rest unto the second day at night.

2 Esdras 10:3
And it came to pass, when they had all left off to comfort me, to the end I might be quiet; then rose I up by night and fled, and came hither into this field, as thou seest.

2 Esdras 10:4
And I do now purpose not to return into the city, but here to stay, and neither to eat nor drink, but continually to mourn and to fast until I die.

2 Esdras 10:5
Then left I the meditations wherein I was, and spake to her in anger, saying,

2 Esdras 10:12
But if thou sayest unto me, My lamentation is not like the earth's, because I have lost the fruit of my womb, which I brought forth with pains, and bare with sorrows;

2 Esdras 10:14
Then say I unto thee, Like as thou hast brought forth with labour; even so the earth also hath given her fruit, namely, man, ever since the beginning unto him that made her.

2 Esdras 10:18
And she said unto me, That will I not do: I will not go into the city, but here will I die.

2 Esdras 10:19
So I proceeded to speak further unto her, and said,

2 Esdras 10:25
And it came to pass while I was talking with her, behold, her face upon a sudden shined exceedingly, and her countenance glistered, so that I was afraid of her, and mused what it might be.

2 Esdras 10:27
And I looked, and, behold, the woman appeared unto me no more, but there was a city builded, and a large place shewed itself from the foundations: then was I afraid, and cried with a loud voice, and said,

2 Esdras 10:29
And as I was speaking these words behold, he came unto me, and looked upon me.

2 Esdras 10:30
And, lo, I lay as one that had been dead, and mine understanding was taken from me: and he took me by the right hand, and comforted me, and set me upon my feet, and said unto me,

2 Esdras 10:32
And I said, Because thou hast forsaken me, and yet I did according to thy words, and I went into the field, and, lo, I have seen, and yet see, that I am not able to express.

2 Esdras 10:33
And he said unto me, Stand up manfully, and I will advise thee.

2 Esdras 10:34
Then said I, Speak on, my lord, in me; only forsake me not, lest I die frustrate of my hope.

2 Esdras 10:35
For I have seen that I knew not, and hear that I do not know.

2 Esdras 10:37
Now therefore I beseech thee that thou wilt shew thy servant of this vision.

2 Esdras 10:38
He answered me then, and said, Hear me, and I shall inform thee, and tell thee wherefore thou art afraid: for the Highest will reveal many secret things unto thee.

2 Esdras 10:45
Whereas, 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.

2 Esdras 10:51
And therefore I bade thee remain in the field where no house was builded:

2 Esdras 10:52
For I knew that the Highest would shew this unto thee.

2 Esdras 10:53
Therefore I commanded thee to go into the field, where no foundation of any building was.

2 Esdras 10:59
And so shall the Highest shew thee visions of the high things, which the most High will do unto them that dwell upon the earth in the last days. So I slept that night and another, like as he commanded me.

2 Esdras 11:1
Then saw I a dream, and, behold, there came up from the sea an eagle, which had twelve feathered wings, and three heads.

2 Esdras 11:2
And I saw, and, behold, she spread her wings over all the earth, and all the winds of the air blew on her, and were gathered together.

2 Esdras 11:3
And I beheld, and out of her feathers there grew other contrary feathers; and they became little feathers and small.

2 Esdras 11:5
Moreover I beheld, and, lo, the eagle flew with her feathers, and reigned upon earth, and over them that dwelt therein.

2 Esdras 11:6
And I saw that all things under heaven were subject unto her, and no man spake against her, no, not one creature upon earth.

2 Esdras 11:7
And I beheld, and, lo, the eagle rose upon her talons, and spake to her feathers, saying,

2 Esdras 11:10
And I beheld, and, lo, the voice went not out of her heads, but from the midst of her body.

2 Esdras 11:11
And I numbered her contrary feathers, and, behold, there were eight of them.

2 Esdras 11:12
And I looked, and, behold, on the right side there arose one feather, and reigned over all the earth;

2 Esdras 11:16
Hear thou that hast borne rule over the earth so long: this I say unto thee, before thou beginnest to appear no more,

2 Esdras 11:20
Then I beheld, and, lo, in process of time the feathers that followed stood up upon the right side, that they might rule also; and some of them ruled, but within a while they appeared no more:

2 Esdras 11:22
After this I looked, and, behold, the twelve feathers appeared no more, nor the two little feathers:

2 Esdras 11:24
Then saw I also that two little feathers divided themselves from the six, and remained under the head that was upon the right side: for the four continued in their place.

2 Esdras 11:25
And I beheld, and, lo, the feathers that were under the wing thought to set up themselves and to have the rule.

2 Esdras 11:26
And I beheld, and, lo, there was one set up, but shortly it appeared no more.

2 Esdras 11:28
And I beheld, and, lo, the two that remained thought also in themselves to reign:

2 Esdras 11:30
And then I saw that the two other heads were joined with it.

2 Esdras 11:33
And after this I beheld, and, lo, the head that was in the midst suddenly appeared no more, like as the wings.

2 Esdras 11:35
And I beheld, and, lo, the head upon the right side devoured it that was upon the left side.

2 Esdras 11:36
Then I head a voice, which said unto me, Look before thee, and consider the thing that thou seest.

2 Esdras 11:37
And I beheld, and lo, as it were a roaring lion chased out of the wood: and I saw that he sent out a man's voice unto the eagle, and said,

2 Esdras 11:38
Hear thou, I will talk with thee, and the Highest shall say unto thee,

2 Esdras 11:39
Art not thou it that remainest of the four beasts, whom I made to reign in my world, that the end of their times might come through them?

2 Esdras 12:1
And it came to pass, whiles the lion spake these words unto the eagle, I saw,

2 Esdras 12:3
And I saw, and, behold, they appeared no more, and the whole body of the eagle was burnt so that the earth was in great fear: then awaked I out of the trouble and trance of my mind, and from great fear, and said unto my spirit,

2 Esdras 12:5
Lo, yet am I weary in my mind, and very weak in my spirit; and little strength is there in me, for the great fear wherewith I was afflicted this night.

2 Esdras 12:6
Therefore will I now beseech the Highest, that he will comfort me unto the end.

2 Esdras 12:7
And I said, Lord that bearest rule, if I have found grace before thy sight, and if I am justified with thee before many others, and if my prayer indeed be come up before thy face;

2 Esdras 12:12
But it was not expounded unto him, therefore now I declare it unto thee.

2 Esdras 12:34
For the rest of my people shall he deliver with mercy, those that have been pressed upon my borders, and he shall make them joyful until the coming of the day of judgment, whereof I have spoken unto thee from the the beginning.

2 Esdras 12:40
And it came to pass, when all the people saw that the seven days were past, and I not come again into the city, they gathered them all together, from the least unto the greatest, and came unto me, and said,

2 Esdras 12:45
For we are not better than they that died there. And they wept with a loud voice. Then answered I them, and said,

2 Esdras 12:48
As for me, I have not forsaken you, neither am I departed from you: but am come into this place, to pray for the desolation of Sion, and that I might seek mercy for the low estate of your sanctuary.

2 Esdras 12:49
And now go your way home every man, and after these days will I come unto you.

2 Esdras 12:50
So the people went their way into the city, like as I commanded them:

2 Esdras 12:51
But I remained still in the field seven days, as the angel commanded me; and did eat only in those days of the flowers of the field, and had my meat of the herbs.

2 Esdras 13:1
And it came to pass after seven days, I dreamed a dream by night:

2 Esdras 13:3
And I beheld, and, lo, that man waxed strong with the thousands of heaven: and when he turned his countenance to look, all the things trembled that were seen under him.

2 Esdras 13:5
And after this I beheld, and, lo, there was gathered together a multitude of men, out of number, from the four winds of the heaven, to subdue the man that came out of the sea

2 Esdras 13:6
But I beheld, and, lo, he had graved himself a great mountain, and flew up upon it.

2 Esdras 13:7
But I would have seen the region or place whereout the hill was graven, and I could not.

2 Esdras 13:8
And after this I beheld, and, lo, all they which were gathered together to subdue him were sore afraid, and yet durst fight.

2 Esdras 13:10
But only I saw that he sent out of his mouth as it had been a blast of fire, and out of his lips a flaming breath, and out of his tongue he cast out sparks and tempests.

2 Esdras 13:11
And they were all mixed together; the blast of fire, the flaming breath, and the great tempest; and fell with violence upon the multitude which was prepared to fight, and burned them up every one, so that upon a sudden of an innumerable multitude nothing was to be perceived, but only dust and smell of smoke: when I saw this I was afraid.

2 Esdras 13:12
Afterward saw I the same man come down from the mountain, and call unto him another peaceable Multitude.

2 Esdras 13:13
And there came much people unto him, whereof some were glad, some were sorry, and some of them were bound, and other some brought of them that were offered: then was I sick through great fear, and I awaked, and said,

2 Esdras 13:16
For as I conceive in mine understanding, woe unto them that shall be left in those days and much more woe unto them that are not left behind!

2 Esdras 13:18
Now understand I the things that are laid up in the latter days, which shall happen unto them, and to those that are left behind.

2 Esdras 13:21
The interpretation of the vision shall I shew thee, and I will open unto thee the thing that thou hast required.

2 Esdras 13:32
And the time shall be when these things shall come to pass, and the signs shall happen which I shewed thee before, and then shall my Son be declared, whom thou sawest as a man ascending.

2 Esdras 13:51
Then said I, O Lord that bearest rule, shew me this: Wherefore have I seen the man coming up from the midst of the sea?

2 Esdras 13:56
And therefore have I shewed thee the treasures of the Highest: after other three days I will speak other things unto thee, and declare unto thee mighty and wondrous things.

2 Esdras 13:57
Then went I forth into the field, giving praise and thanks greatly unto the most High because of his wonders which he did in time;

2 Esdras 13:58
And because he governeth the same, and such things as fall in their seasons: and there I sat three days.

2 Esdras 14:1
And it came to pass upon the third day, I sat under an oak, and, behold, there came a voice out of a bush over against me, and said, Esdras, Esdras.

2 Esdras 14:2
And I said, Here am I, Lord And I stood up upon my feet.

2 Esdras 14:3
Then said he unto me, In the bush I did manifestly reveal myself unto Moses, and talked with him, when my people served in Egypt:

2 Esdras 14:4
And I sent him and led my people out of Egypt, and brought him up to the mount of where I held him by me a long season,

2 Esdras 14:7
And now I say unto thee,

2 Esdras 14:8
That thou lay up in thy heart the signs that I have shewed, and the dreams that thou hast seen, and the interpretations which thou hast heard:

2 Esdras 14:19
Then answered I before thee, and said,

2 Esdras 14:20
Behold, Lord, I will go, as thou hast commanded me, and reprove the people which are present: but they that shall be born afterward, who shall admonish them? thus the world is set in darkness, and they that dwell therein are without light.

2 Esdras 14:22
But if I have found grace before thee, send the Holy Ghost into me, and I shall write all that hath been done in the world since the beginning, which were written in thy law, that men may find thy path, and that they which will live in the latter days may live.

2 Esdras 14:25
And come hither, and I shall light a candle of understanding in thine heart, which shall not be put out, till the things be performed which thou shalt begin to write.

2 Esdras 14:27
Then went I forth, as he commanded, and gathered all the people together, and said,

2 Esdras 14:37
So I took the five men, as he commanded me, and we went into the field, and remained there.

2 Esdras 14:38
And the next day, behold, a voice called me, saying, Esdras, open thy mouth, and drink that I give thee to drink.

2 Esdras 14:39
Then opened I my mouth, and, behold, he reached me a full cup, which was full as it were with water, but the colour of it was like fire.

2 Esdras 14:40
And I took it, and drank: and when I had drunk of it, my heart uttered understanding, and wisdom grew in my breast, for my spirit strengthened my memory:

2 Esdras 14:43
As for me. I spake in the day, and I held not my tongue by night.

2 Esdras 14:48
And I did so.

2 Esdras 15:1
Behold, speak thou in the ears of my people the words of prophecy, which I will put in thy mouth, saith the Lord:

2 Esdras 15:5
Behold, saith the Lord, I will bring plagues upon the world; the sword, famine, death, and destruction.

2 Esdras 15:8
I will hold my tongue no more as touching their wickedness, which they profanely commit, neither will I suffer them in those things, in which they wickedly exercise themselves: behold, the innocent and righteous blood crieth unto me, and the souls of the just complain continually.

2 Esdras 15:9
And therefore, saith the Lord, I will surely avenge them, and receive unto me all the innocent blood from among them.

2 Esdras 15:10
Behold, my people is led as a flock to the slaughter: I will not suffer them now to dwell in the land of Egypt:

2 Esdras 15:11
But I will bring them with a mighty hand and a stretched out arm, and smite Egypt with plagues, as before, and will destroy all the land thereof.

2 Esdras 15:20
Behold, saith God, I will call together all the kings of the earth to reverence me, which are from the rising of the sun, from the south, from the east, and Libanus; to turn themselves one against another, and repay the things that they have done to them.

2 Esdras 15:21
Like as they do yet this day unto my chosen, so will I do also, and recompense in their bosom. Thus saith the Lord God;

2 Esdras 15:25
I will not spare them: go your way, ye children, from the power, defile not my sanctuary.

2 Esdras 15:49
I will send plagues upon thee; widowhood, poverty, famine, sword, and pestilence, to waste thy houses with destruction and death.

2 Esdras 15:52
Would I with jealousy have so proceeded against thee, saith the Lord,

2 Esdras 16:18
The beginning of sorrows and great mournings; the beginning of famine and great death; the beginning of wars, and the powers shall stand in fear; the beginning of evils! what shall I do when these evils shall come?

2 Esdras 16:48
The more will I be angry with them for their sin, saith the Lord.

2 Esdras 16:53
Let not the sinner say that he hath not sinned: for God shall burn coals of fire upon his head, which saith before the Lord God and his glory, I have not sinned.

2 Esdras 16:74
Hear, O ye my beloved, saith the Lord: behold, the days of trouble are at hand, but I will deliver you from the same.

Tobit 1:3
I Tobit have walked all the days of my life in the ways of truth and justice, and I did many almsdeeds to my brethren, and my nation, who came with me to Nineve, into the land of the Assyrians.

Tobit 1:4
And when I was in mine own country, in the land of Israel being but young, all the tribe of Nephthali my father fell from the house of Jerusalem, which was chosen out of all the tribes of Israel, that all the tribes should sacrifice there, where the temple of the habitation of the most High was consecrated and built for all ages.

Tobit 1:6
But I alone went often to Jerusalem at the feasts, as it was ordained unto all the people of Israel by an everlasting decree, having the firstfruits and tenths of increase, with that which was first shorn; and them gave I at the altar to the priests the children of Aaron.

Tobit 1:7
The first tenth part of all increase I gave to the sons of Aaron, who ministered at Jerusalem: another tenth part I sold away, and went, and spent it every year at Jerusalem:

Tobit 1:8
And the third I gave unto them to whom it was meet, as Debora my father's mother had commanded me, because I was left an orphan by my father.

Tobit 1:9
Furthermore, when I was come to the age of a man, I married Anna of mine own kindred, and of her I begat Tobias.

Tobit 1:11
But I kept myself from eating;

Tobit 1:12
Because I remembered God with all my heart.

Tobit 1:13
And the most High gave me grace and favour before Enemessar, so that I was his purveyor.

Tobit 1:14
And I went into Media, and left in trust with Gabael, the brother of Gabrias, at Rages a city of Media ten talents of silver.

Tobit 1:15
Now when Enemessar was dead, Sennacherib his son reigned in his stead; whose estate was troubled, that I could not go into Media.

Tobit 1:16
And in the time of Enemessar I gave many alms to my brethren, and gave my bread to the hungry,

Tobit 1:17
And my clothes to the naked: and if I saw any of my nation dead, or cast about the walls of Nineve, I buried him.

Tobit 1:18
And if the king Sennacherib had slain any, when he was come, and fled from Judea, I buried them privily; for in his wrath he killed many; but the bodies were not found, when they were sought for of the king.

Tobit 1:19
And when one of the Ninevites went and complained of me to the king, that I buried them, and hid myself; understanding that I was sought for to be put to death, I withdrew myself for fear.

Tobit 1:22
And Achiacharus intreating for me, I returned to Nineve. Now Achiacharus was cupbearer, and keeper of the signet, and steward, and overseer of the accounts: and Sarchedonus appointed him next unto him: and he was my brother's son.

Tobit 2:1
Now when I was come home again, and my wife Anna was restored unto me, with my son Tobias, in the feast of Pentecost, which is the holy feast of the seven weeks, there was a good dinner prepared me, in the which I sat down to eat.

Tobit 2:2
And when I saw abundance of meat, I said to my son, Go and bring what poor man soever thou shalt find out of our brethren, who is mindful of the Lord; and, lo, I tarry for thee.

Tobit 2:4
Then before I had tasted of any meat, I started up, and took him up into a room until the going down of the sun.

Tobit 2:5
Then I returned, and washed myself, and ate my meat in heaviness,

Tobit 2:7
Therefore I wept: and after the going down of the sun I went and made a grave, and buried him.

Tobit 2:9
The same night also I returned from the burial, and slept by the wall of my courtyard, being polluted and my face was uncovered:

Tobit 2:10
And I knew not that there were sparrows in the wall, and mine eyes being open, the sparrows muted warm dung into mine eyes, and a whiteness came in mine eyes: and I went to the physicians, but they helped me not: moreover Achiacharus did nourish me, until I went into Elymais.

Tobit 2:13
And when it was in my house, and began to cry, I said unto her, From whence is this kid? is it not stolen? render it to the owners; for it is not lawful to eat any thing that is stolen.

Tobit 2:14
But she replied upon me, It was given for a gift more than the wages. Howbeit I did not believe her, but bade her render it to the owners: and I was abashed at her. But she replied upon me, Where are thine alms and thy righteous deeds? behold, thou and all thy works are known.

Tobit 3:1
Then I being grieved did weep, and in my sorrow prayed, saying,

Tobit 3:6
Now therefore deal with me as seemeth best unto thee, and command my spirit to be taken from me, that I may be dissolved, and become earth: for it is profitable for me to die rather than to live, because I have heard false reproaches, and have much sorrow: command therefore that I may now be delivered out of this distress, and go into the everlasting place: turn not thy face away from me.

Tobit 3:10
Whe she heard these things, she was very sorrowful, so that she thought to have strangled herself; and she said, I am the only daughter of my father, and if I do this, it shall be a reproach unto him, and I shall bring his old age with sorrow unto the grave.

Tobit 3:12
And now, O Lord, I set I mine eyes and my face toward thee,

Tobit 3:13
And say, Take me out of the earth, that I may hear no more the reproach.

Tobit 3:14
Thou knowest, Lord, that I am pure from all sin with man,

Tobit 3:15
And that I never polluted my name, nor the name of my father, in the land of my captivity: I am the only daughter of my father, neither hath he any child to be his heir, neither any near kinsman, nor any son of his alive, to whom I may keep myself for a wife: my seven husbands are already dead; and why should I live? but if it please not thee that I should die, command some regard to be had of me, and pity taken of me, that I hear no more reproach.

Tobit 4:2
And said with himself, I have wished for death; wherefore do I not call for my son Tobias that I may signify to him of the money before I die?

Tobit 4:3
And when he had called him, he said, My son, when I am dead, bury me; and despise not thy mother, but honour her all the days of thy life, and do that which shall please her, and grieve her not.

Tobit 4:20
And now I signify this to they that I committed ten talents to Gabael the son of Gabrias at Rages in Media.

Tobit 5:1
Tobias then answered and said, Father, I will do all things which thou hast commanded me:

Tobit 5:2
But how can I receive the money, seeing I know him not?

Tobit 5:3
Then he gave him the handwriting, and said unto him, Seek thee a man which may go with thee, whiles I yet live, and I will give him wages: and go and receive the money.

Tobit 5:6
To whom the angel said, I will go with thee, and I know the way well: for I have lodged with our brother Gabael.

Tobit 5:7
Then Tobias said unto him, Tarry for me, till I tell my father.

Tobit 5:8
Then he said unto him, Go and tarry not. So he went in and said to his father, Behold, I have found one which will go with me. Then he said, Call him unto me, that I may know of what tribe he is, and whether he be a trusty man to go with thee.

Tobit 5:11
To whom he said, Dost thou seek for a tribe or family, or an hired man to go with thy son? Then Tobit said unto him, I would know, brother, thy kindred and name.

Tobit 5:12
Then he said, I am Azarias, the son of Ananias the great, and of thy brethren.

Tobit 5:13
Then Tobit said, Thou art welcome, brother; be not now angry with me, because I have enquired to know thy tribe and thy family; for thou art my brother, of an honest and good stock: for I know Ananias and Jonathas, sons of that great Samaias, as we went together to Jerusalem to worship, and offered the firstborn, and the tenths of the fruits; and they were not seduced with the error of our brethren: my brother, thou art of a good stock.

Tobit 5:14
But tell me, what wages shall I give thee? wilt thou a drachm a day, and things necessary, as to mine own son?

Tobit 5:15
Yea, moreover, if ye return safe, I will add something to thy wages.

Tobit 6:10
The angel said to the young man, Brother, to day we shall lodge with Raguel, who is thy cousin; he also hath one only daughter, named Sara; I will speak for her, that she may be given thee for a wife.

Tobit 6:12
And the maid is fair and wise: now therefore hear me, and I will speak to her father; and when we return from Rages we will celebrate the marriage: for I know that Raguel cannot marry her to another according to the law of Moses, but he shall be guilty of death, because the right of inheritance doth rather appertain to thee than to any other.

Tobit 6:13
Then the young man answered the angel, I have heard, brother Azarias that this maid hath been given to seven men, who all died in the marriage chamber.

Tobit 6:14
And now I am the only son of my father, and I am afraid, lest if I go in unto her, I die, as the other before: for a wicked spirit loveth her, which hurteth no body, but those which come unto her; wherefore I also fear lest I die, and bring my father's and my mother's life because of me to the grave with sorrow: for they have no other son to bury them.

Tobit 6:17
And the devil shall smell it, and flee away, and never come again any more: but when thou shalt come to her, rise up both of you, and pray to God which is merciful, who will have pity on you, and save you: fear not, for she is appointed unto thee from the beginning; and thou shalt preserve her, and she shall go with thee. Moreover I suppose that she shall bear thee children. Now when Tobias had heard these things, he loved her, and his heart was effectually joined to her.

Tobit 7:10
For it is meet that thou shouldest marry my daughter: nevertheless I will declare unto thee the truth.

Tobit 7:11
I have given my daughter in marriage to seven men, who died that night they came in unto her: nevertheless for the present be merry. But Tobias said, I will eat nothing here, till we agree and swear one to another.

Tobit 8:7
And now, O Lord, I take not this my sister for lush but uprightly: therefore mercifully ordain that we may become aged together.

Tobit 8:10
Saying, I fear lest he also be dead.

Tobit 8:16
Thou art to be praised, for thou hast made me joyful; and that is not come to me which I suspected; but thou hast dealt with us according to thy great mercy.

Tobit 8:21
And then he should take the half of his goods, and go in safety to his father; and should have the rest when I and my wife be dead.

Tobit 9:3
For Raguel hath sworn that I shall not depart.

Tobit 9:4
But my father counteth the days; and if I tarry long, he will be very sorry.

Tobit 10:5
Now I care for nothing, my son, since I have let thee go, the light of mine eyes.

Tobit 10:8
But his father in law said unto him, Tarry with me, and I will send to thy father, and they shall declare unto him how things go with thee.

Tobit 10:12
And he said to his daughter, Honour thy father and thy mother in law, which are now thy parents, that I may hear good report of thee. And he kissed her. Edna also said to Tobias, The Lord of heaven restore thee, my dear brother, and grant that I may see thy children of my daughter Sara before I die, that I may rejoice before the Lord: behold, I commit my daughter unto thee of special trust; where are do not entreat her evil.

Tobit 11:7
Then said Raphael, I know, Tobias, that thy father will open his eyes.

Tobit 11:9
Then Anna ran forth, and fell upon the neck of her son, and said unto him, Seeing I have seen thee, my son, from henceforth I am content to die. And they wept both.

Tobit 11:15
For thou hast scourged, and hast taken pity on me: for, behold, I see my son Tobias. And his son went in rejoicing, and told his father the great things that had happened to him in Media.

Tobit 12:2
And Tobias said unto him, O father, it is no harm to me to give him half of those things which I have brought:

Tobit 12:11
Surely I will keep close nothing from you. For I said, It was good to keep close the secret of a king, but that it was honourable to reveal the works of God.

Tobit 12:12
Now therefore, when thou didst pray, and Sara thy daughter in law, I did bring the remembrance of your prayers before the Holy One: and when thou didst bury the dead, I was with thee likewise.

Tobit 12:13
And when thou didst not delay to rise up, and leave thy dinner, to go and cover the dead, thy good deed was not hid from me: but I was with thee.

Tobit 12:15
I am Raphael, one of the seven holy angels, which present the prayers of the saints, and which go in and out before the glory of the Holy One.

Tobit 12:18
For not of any favour of mine, but by the will of our God I came; wherefore praise him for ever.

Tobit 12:19
All these days I did appear unto you; but I did neither eat nor drink, but ye did see a vision.

Tobit 12:20
Now therefore give God thanks: for I go up to him that sent me; but write all things which are done in a book.

Tobit 13:6
If ye turn to him with your whole heart, and with your whole mind, and deal uprightly before him, then will he turn unto you, and will not hide his face from you. Therefore see what he will do with you, and confess him with your whole mouth, and praise the Lord of might, and extol the everlasting King. In the land of my captivity do I praise him, and declare his might and majesty to a sinful nation. O ye sinners, turn and do justice before him: who can tell if he will accept you, and have mercy on you?

Tobit 13:7
I will extol my God, and my soul shall praise the King of heaven, and shall rejoice in his greatness.

Tobit 14:3
And when he was very aged he called his son, and the sons of his son, and said to him, My son, take thy children; for, behold, I am aged, and am ready to depart out of this life.

Tobit 14:4
Go into Media my son, for I surely believe those things which Jonas the prophet spake of Nineve, that it shall be overthrown; and that for a time peace shall rather be in Media; and that our brethren shall lie scattered in the earth from that good land: and Jerusalem shall be desolate, and the house of God in it shall be burned, and shall be desolate for a time;

Judith 2:7
And thou shalt declare unto that they prepare for me earth and water: for I will go forth in my wrath against them and will cover the whole face of the earth with the feet of mine army, and I will give them for a spoil unto them:

Judith 2:9
And I will lead them captives to the utmost parts of all the earth.

Judith 2:12
For as I live, and by the power of my kingdom, whatsoever I have spoken, that will I do by mine hand.

Judith 2:13
And take thou heed that thou transgress none of the commandments of thy lord, but accomplish them fully, as I have commanded thee, and defer not to do them.

Judith 5:5
Then said Achior, the captain of all the sons of Ammon, Let my lord now hear a word from the mouth of thy servant, and I will declare unto thee the truth concerning this people, which dwelleth near thee, and inhabiteth the hill countries: and there shall no lie come out of the mouth of thy servant.

Judith 6:5
And thou, Achior, an hireling of Ammon, which hast spoken these words in the day of thine iniquity, shalt see my face no more from this day, until I take vengeance of this nation that came out of Egypt.

Judith 6:6
And then shall the sword of mine army, and the multitude of them that serve me, pass through thy sides, and thou shalt fall among their slain, when I return.

Judith 6:9
And if thou persuade thyself in thy mind that they shall be taken, let not thy countenance fall: I have spoken it, and none of my words shall be in vain.

Judith 7:31
And if these days pass, and there come no help unto us, I will do according to your word.

Judith 8:32
Then said Judith unto them, Hear me, and I will do a thing, which shall go throughout all generations to the children of our nation.

Judith 8:33
Ye shall stand this night in the gate, and I will go forth with my waitingwoman: and within the days that ye have promised to deliver the city to our enemies the Lord will visit Israel by mine hand.

Judith 8:34
But enquire not ye of mine act: for I will not declare it unto you, till the things be finished that I do.

Judith 9:9
Behold their pride, and send thy wrath upon their heads: give into mine hand, which am a widow, the power that I have conceived.

Judith 9:12
I pray thee, I pray thee, O God of my father, and God of the inheritance of Israel, Lord of the heavens and earth, Creator of the waters, king of every creature, hear thou my prayer:

Judith 10:9
And she said unto them, Command the gates of the city to be opened unto me, that I may go forth to accomplish the things whereof ye have spoken with me. So they commanded the young men to open unto her, as she had spoken.

Judith 10:12
And took her, and asked her, Of what people art thou? and whence comest thou? and whither goest thou? And she said, I am a woman of the Hebrews, and am fled from them: for they shall be given you to be consumed:

Judith 10:13
And I am coming before Holofernes the chief captain of your army, to declare words of truth; and I will shew him a way, whereby he shall go, and win all the hill country, without losing the body or life of any one of his men.

Judith 11:1
Then said Holofernes unto her, Woman, be of good comfort, fear not in thine heart: for I never hurt any that was willing to serve Nabuchodonosor, the king of all the earth.

Judith 11:2
Now therefore, if thy people that dwelleth in the mountains had not set light by me, I would not have lifted up my spear against them: but they have done these things to themselves.

Judith 11:5
Then Judith said unto him, Receive the words of thy servant, and suffer thine handmaid to speak in thy presence, and I will declare no lie to my lord this night.

Judith 11:16
Wherefore I thine handmaid, knowing all this, am fled from their presence; and God hath sent me to work things with thee, whereat all the earth shall be astonished, and whosoever shall hear it.

Judith 11:17
For thy servant is religious, and serveth the God of heaven day and night: now therefore, my lord, I will remain with thee, and thy servant will go out by night into the valley, and I will pray unto God, and he will tell me when they have committed their sins:

Judith 11:18
And I will come and shew it unto thee: then thou shalt go forth with all thine army, and there shall be none of them that shall resist thee.

Judith 11:19
And I will lead thee through the midst of Judea, until thou come before Jerusalem; and I will set thy throne in the midst thereof; and thou shalt drive them as sheep that have no shepherd, and a dog shall not so much as open his mouth at thee: for these things were told me according to my foreknowledge, and they were declared unto me, and I am sent to tell thee.

Judith 12:2
And Judith said, I will not eat thereof, lest there be an offence: but provision shall be made for me of the things that I have brought.

Judith 12:4
Then said Judith unto him As thy soul liveth, my lord, thine handmaid shall not spend those things that I have, before the Lord work by mine hand the things that he hath determined.

Judith 12:14
Then said Judith unto him, Who am I now, that I should gainsay my lord? surely whatsoever pleaseth him I will do speedily, and it shall be my joy unto the day of my death.

Judith 12:18
So Judith said, I will drink now, my lord, because my life is magnified in me this day more than all the days since I was born.

Judith 13:14
Then she said to them with a loud voice, Praise, praise God, praise God, I say, for he hath not taken away his mercy from the house of Israel, but hath destroyed our enemies by mine hands this night.

Judith 13:16
As the Lord liveth, who hath kept me in my way that I went, my countenance hath deceived him to his destruction, and yet hath he not committed sin with me, to defile and shame me.

Judith 16:13
I will sing unto the Lord a new song: O Lord, thou art great and glorious, wonderful in strength, and invincible.

Wisdom of Solomon 6:9
Unto you therefore, O kings, do I speak, that ye may learn wisdom, and not fall away.

Wisdom of Solomon 6:22
As for wisdom, what she is, and how she came up, I will tell you, and will not hide mysteries from you: but will seek her out from the beginning of her nativity, and bring the knowledge of her into light, and will not pass over the truth.

Wisdom of Solomon 6:23
Neither will I go with consuming envy; for such a man shall have no fellowship with wisdom.

Wisdom of Solomon 7:1
I myself also am a mortal man, like to all, and the offspring of him that was first made of the earth,

Wisdom of Solomon 7:3
And when I was born, I drew in the common air, and fell upon the earth, which is of like nature, and the first voice which I uttered was crying, as all others do.

Wisdom of Solomon 7:4
I was nursed in swaddling clothes, and that with cares.

Wisdom of Solomon 7:7
Wherefore I prayed, and understanding was given me: I called upon God, and the spirit of wisdom came to me.

Wisdom of Solomon 7:8
I preferred her before sceptres and thrones, and esteemed riches nothing in comparison of her.

Wisdom of Solomon 7:9
Neither compared I unto her any precious stone, because all gold in respect of her is as a little sand, and silver shall be counted as clay before her.

Wisdom of Solomon 7:10
I loved her above health and beauty, and chose to have her instead of light: for the light that cometh from her never goeth out.

Wisdom of Solomon 7:12
And I rejoiced in them all, because wisdom goeth before them: and I knew not that she was the mother of them.

Wisdom of Solomon 7:13
I learned diligently, and do communicate her liberally: I do not hide her riches.

Wisdom of Solomon 7:15
God hath granted me to speak as I would, and to conceive as is meet for the things that are given me: because it is he that leadeth unto wisdom, and directeth the wise.

Wisdom of Solomon 7:21
And all such things as are either secret or manifest, them I know.

Wisdom of Solomon 8:2
I loved her, and sought her out from my youth, I desired to make her my spouse, and I was a lover of her beauty.

Wisdom of Solomon 8:9
Therefore I purposed to take her to me to live with me, knowing that she would be a counsellor of good things, and a comfort in cares and grief.

Wisdom of Solomon 8:10
For her sake I shall have estimation among the multitude, and honour with the elders, though I be young.

Wisdom of Solomon 8:11
I shall be found of a quick conceit in judgment, and shall be admired in the sight of great men.

Wisdom of Solomon 8:12
When I hold my tongue, they shall bide my leisure, and when I speak, they shall give good ear unto me: if I talk much, they shall lay their hands upon their mouth.

Wisdom of Solomon 8:13
Moreover by the means of her I shall obtain immortality, and leave behind me an everlasting memorial to them that come after me.

Wisdom of Solomon 8:14
I shall set the people in order, and the nations shall be subject unto me.

Wisdom of Solomon 8:15
Horrible tyrants shall be afraid, when they do but hear of me; I shall be found good among the multitude, and valiant in war.

Wisdom of Solomon 8:16
After I am come into mine house, I will repose myself with her: for her conversation hath no bitterness; and to live with her hath no sorrow, but mirth and joy.

Wisdom of Solomon 8:17
Now when I considered these things in myself, and pondered them in my heart, how that to be allied unto wisdom is immortality;

Wisdom of Solomon 8:18
And great pleasure it is to have her friendship; and in the works of her hands are infinite riches; and in the exercise of conference with her, prudence; and in talking with her, a good report; I went about seeking how to take her to me.

Wisdom of Solomon 8:19
For I was a witty child, and had a good spirit.

Wisdom of Solomon 8:20
Yea rather, being good, I came into a body undefiled.

Wisdom of Solomon 8:21
Nevertheless, when I perceived that I could not otherwise obtain her, except God gave her me; and that was a point of wisdom also to know whose gift she was; I prayed unto the Lord, and besought him, and with my whole heart I said,

Wisdom of Solomon 9:5
For I thy servant and son of thine handmaid am a feeble person, and of a short time, and too young for the understanding of judgment and laws.

Wisdom of Solomon 9:10
O send her out of thy holy heavens, and from the throne of thy glory, that being present she may labour with me, that I may know what is pleasing unto thee.

Wisdom of Solomon 9:12
So shall my works be acceptable, and then shall I judge thy people righteously, and be worthy to sit in my father's seat.

Sirach 5:1

Lest mine ignorances increase, and my sins abound to my destruction, and I fall before mine adversaries, and mine enemy rejoice over me, whose hope is far from thy mercy.

Sirach 23:18
A man that breaketh wedlock, saying thus in his heart, Who seeth me? I am compassed about with darkness, the walls cover me, and no body seeth me; what need I to fear? the most High will not remember my sins:

I came out of the mouth of the most High, and covered the earth as a cloud.

Sirach 24:4
I dwelt in high places, and my throne is in a cloudy pillar.

Sirach 24:5

Sirach 24:15
I gave a sweet smell like cinnamon and aspalathus, and I yielded a pleasant odour like the best myrrh, as galbanum, and onyx, and sweet storax, and as the fume of frankincense in the tabernacle.

Sirach 24:16
As the turpentine tree I stretched out my branches, and my branches are the branches of honour and grace.

Sirach 24:17
As the vine brought I forth pleasant savour, and my flowers are the fruit of honour and riches.

Sirach 24:18
I am the mother of fair love, and fear, and knowledge, and holy hope: I therefore, being eternal, am given to all my children which are named of him.
