LES 5:35 Removed trailing space in p~: And I said, “Why, Lord? Why was I born? Why wasn’t my mother’s womb my grave, that I might not have seen the travail of Jacob, and the wearisome toil of the people of Israel?”

LES 5:40 Removed trailing space in v~: Then said he to me, “Just as you can do none of these things that I have spoken of, even so you can’t find out my judgement, or the end of the love that I have promised to my people.”

LES 5:41 Removed trailing space in v~: I said, “But, behold, O Lord, you have made the promise to those who are alive at the end. What should they do who have been before us, or we ourselves, or those who will come after us?”

LES 5:42 Removed trailing space in v~: He said to me, “I will compare my judgement to a ring. Just as there is no slowness of those who are last, even so there is no swiftness of those who be first.”

LES 7:5 Removed trailing space in v~: Whoever desires to go into the sea to look at it, or to rule it, if he didn’t go through the narrow entrance, how could he come into the broad part?

LES 7:6 Removed trailing space in v~: Another thing also: There is a city built and set in a plain country, and full of all good things,

LES 7:7 Removed trailing space in v~: but its entrance is narrow, and is set in a dangerous place to fall, having fire on the right hand, and deep water on the left.

LES 7:8 Removed trailing space in v~: There is one only path between them both, even between the fire and the water, so that only one person can go there at once.

LES 7:9 Removed trailing space in v~: If this city is now given to a man for an inheritance, if the heir doesn’t pass the danger before him, how will he receive his inheritance?”

LES 7:10 Removed trailing space in v~: I said, “That is so, Lord.”

LES 7:10 Removed trailing space in p~: Then said he to me, “Even so also is Israel’s portion.

LES 7:11 Removed trailing space in v~: I made the world for their sakes. What is now done was decreed when Adam transgressed my statutes.

LES 7:12 Removed trailing space in v~: Then the entrances of this world were made narrow, sorrowful, and toilsome. They are but few and evil, full of perils, and involved in great toils.

LES 7:13 Removed trailing space in v~: For the entrances of the greater world are wide and safe, and produce fruit of immortality.

LES 7:14 Removed trailing space in v~: So if those who live don’t enter these difficult and vain things, they can never receive those that are reserved for them.

LES 7:15 Removed trailing space in v~: Now therefore why are you disturbed, seeing you are but a corruptible man? Why are you moved, since you are mortal?

LES 7:16 Removed trailing space in v~: Why haven’t you considered in your mind that which is to come, rather than that which is present?”

LES 7:17 Removed trailing space in v~: Then I answered and said, “O sovereign Lord, behold, you have ordained in your law that the righteous will inherit these things, but that the ungodly will perish.

LES 7:18 Removed trailing space in v~: The righteous therefore will suffer difficult things, and hope for easier things, but those who have done wickedly have suffered the difficult things, and yet will not see the easier things.”

LES 7:19 Removed trailing space in v~: He said to me, “You are not a judge above God, neither do you have more understanding than the Most High.

LES 7:20 Removed trailing space in v~: Yes, let many perish who now live, rather than that the law of God which is set before them be despised.

LES 7:21 Removed trailing space in v~: For God strictly commanded those who came, even as they came, what they should do to live, and what they should observe to avoid punishment.

LES 7:22 Removed trailing space in v~: Nevertheless, they weren’t obedient to him, but spoke against him and imagined for themselves vain things.

LES 7:23 Removed trailing space in v~: They made cunning plans of wickedness, and said moreover of the Most High that he doesn’t exist, and they didn’t know his ways.

LES 7:24 Removed trailing space in v~: They despised his law and denied his covenants. They haven’t been faithful to his statutes, and haven’t performed his works.

LES 7:25 Removed trailing space in v~: Therefore, Esdras, for the empty are empty things, and for the full are the full things.

LES 7:26 Removed trailing space in v~: For behold, the time will come, and it will be, when these signs of which I told you before will come to pass, that the bride will appear, even the city coming forth, and she will be seen who now is withdrawn from the earth.

LES 7:27 Removed trailing space in v~: Whoever is delivered from the foretold evils will see my wonders.

LES 7:43 Removed trailing space in v~: It will endure as though it were a week of years.

LES 7:44 Removed trailing space in v~: This is my judgement and its prescribed order; but I have only shown these things to you.”

LES 7:45 Removed trailing space in v~: I answered, “I said then, O Lord, and I say now: Blessed are those who are now alive and keep your commandments!

LES 7:46 Removed trailing space in v~: But what about those for whom I prayed? For who is there of those who are alive who has not sinned, and who of the children of men hasn’t transgressed your covenant?

LES 7:47 Removed trailing space in v~: Now I see that the world to come will bring delight to few, but torments to many.

LES 7:48 Removed trailing space in v~: For an evil heart has grown up in us, which has led us astray from these commandments and has brought us into corruption and into the ways of death. It has shown us the paths of perdition and removed us far from life—and that, not a few only, but nearly all who have been created.”

LES 7:49 Removed trailing space in v~: He answered me, “Listen to me, and I will instruct you. I will admonish you yet again.

LES 7:50 Removed trailing space in v~: For this reason, the Most High has not made one world, but two.

LES 7:51 Removed trailing space in v~: For because you have said that the just are not many, but few, and the ungodly abound, hear the explanation.

LES 7:52 Removed trailing space in v~: If you have just a few precious stones, will you add them to lead and clay?”

LES 7:53 Removed trailing space in v~: I said, “Lord, how could that be?”

LES 7:54 Removed trailing space in v~: He said to me, “Not only that, but ask the earth, and she will tell you. Defer to her, and she will declare it to you.

LES 7:55 Removed trailing space in v~: Say to her, ‘You produce gold, silver, and brass, and also iron, lead, and clay;

LES 7:56 Removed trailing space in v~: but silver is more abundant than gold, and brass than silver, and iron than brass, and lead than iron, and clay than lead.’

LES 7:57 Removed trailing space in v~: Judge therefore which things are precious and to be desired, what is abundant or what is rare?”

LES 7:58 Removed trailing space in v~: I said, “O sovereign Lord, that which is plentiful is of less worth, for that which is more rare is more precious.”

LES 7:59 Removed trailing space in v~: He answered me, “Weigh within yourself the things that you have thought, for he who has what is hard to get rejoices over him who has what is plentiful.

LES 7:60 Removed trailing space in v~: So also is the judgement which I have promised; for I will rejoice over the few that will be saved, because these are those who have made my glory to prevail now, and through them, my name is now honoured.

LES 7:61 Removed trailing space in v~: I won’t grieve over the multitude of those who perish; for these are those who are now like mist, and have become like flame and smoke; they are set on fire and burn hotly, and are extinguished.”

LES 7:62 Removed trailing space in v~: I answered, “O earth, why have you produced, if the mind is made out of dust, like all other created things?

LES 7:63 Removed trailing space in v~: For it would have been better that the dust itself had been unborn, so that the mind might not have been made from it.

LES 7:64 Removed trailing space in v~: But now the mind grows with us, and because of this we are tormented, because we perish and we know it.

LES 7:65 Removed trailing space in v~: Let the race of men lament and the animals of the field be glad. Let all who are born lament, but let the four-footed animals and the livestock rejoice.

LES 7:66 Removed trailing space in v~: For it is far better with them than with us; for they don’t look forward to judgement, neither do they know of torments or of salvation promised to them after death.

LES 7:67 Removed trailing space in v~: For what does it profit us, that we will be preserved alive, but yet be afflicted with torment?

LES 7:68 Removed trailing space in v~: For all who are born are defiled with iniquities, and are full of sins and laden with transgressions.

LES 7:69 Removed trailing space in v~: If after death we were not to come into judgement, perhaps it would have been better for us.”

LES 7:70 Removed trailing space in v~: He answered me, “When the Most High made the world and Adam and all those who came from him, he first prepared the judgement and the things that pertain to the judgement.

LES 7:71 Removed trailing space in v~: Now understand from your own words, for you have said that the mind grows with us.

LES 7:72 Removed trailing space in v~: They therefore who dwell on the earth will be tormented for this reason, that having understanding they have committed iniquity, and receiving commandments have not kept them, and having obtained a law they dealt unfaithfully with that which they received.

LES 7:73 Removed trailing space in v~: What then will they have to say in the judgement, or how will they answer in the last times?

LES 7:74 Removed trailing space in v~: For how long a time has the Most High been patient with those who inhabit the world, and not for their sakes, but because of the times which he has foreordained!”

LES 7:75 Removed trailing space in v~: I answered, “If I have found grace in your sight, O Lord, show this also to your servant, whether after death, even now when every one of us gives up his soul, we will be kept in rest until those times come, in which you renew the creation, or whether we will be tormented immediately.”

LES 7:76 Removed trailing space in v~: He answered me, “I will show you this also; but don’t join yourself with those who are scorners, nor count yourself with those who are tormented.

LES 7:77 Removed trailing space in v~: For you have a treasure of works laid up with the Most High, but it won’t be shown you until the last times.

LES 7:78 Removed trailing space in v~: For concerning death the teaching is: When the decisive sentence has gone out from the Most High that a man shall die, as the spirit leaves the body to return again to him who gave it, it adores the glory of the Most High first of all.

LES 7:79 Removed trailing space in v~: And if it is one of those who have been scorners and have not kept the way of the Most High, and that have despised his law, and who hate those who fear God,

LES 7:80 Removed trailing space in v~: these spirits won’t enter into habitations, but will wander and be in torments immediately, ever grieving and sad, in seven ways.

LES 7:81 Removed trailing space in v~: The first way, because they have despised the law of the Most High.

LES 7:82 Removed trailing space in v~: The second way, because they can’t now make a good repentance that they may live.

LES 7:83 Removed trailing space in v~: The third way, they will see the reward laid up for those who have believed the covenants of the Most High.

LES 7:84 Removed trailing space in v~: The fourth way, they will consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days.

LES 7:85 Removed trailing space in v~: The fifth way, they will see the dwelling places of the others guarded by angels, with great quietness.

LES 7:86 Removed trailing space in v~: The sixth way, they will see how immediately some of them will pass into torment.

LES 7:87 Removed trailing space in v~: The seventh way, which is more grievous than all the aforesaid ways, because they will pine away in confusion and be consumed with shame, and will be withered up by fears, seeing the glory of the Most High before whom they have sinned while living, and before whom they will be judged in the last times.

LES 7:88 Removed trailing space in v~: “Now this is the order of those who have kept the ways of the Most High, when they will be separated from their mortal body.

LES 7:89 Removed trailing space in v~: In the time that they lived in it, they painfully served the Most High, and were in jeopardy every hour, that they might keep the law of the lawgiver perfectly.

LES 7:90 Removed trailing space in v~: Therefore this is the teaching concerning them:

LES 7:91 Removed trailing space in v~: First of all they will see with great joy the glory of him who takes them up, for they will have rest in seven orders.

LES 7:92 Removed trailing space in v~: The first order, because they have laboured with great effort to overcome the evil thought which was fashioned together with them, that it might not lead them astray from life into death.

LES 7:93 Removed trailing space in v~: The second order, because they see the perplexity in which the souls of the ungodly wander, and the punishment that awaits them.

LES 7:94 Removed trailing space in v~: The third order, they see the testimony which he who fashioned them gives concerning them, that while they lived they kept the law which was given them in trust.

LES 7:95 Removed trailing space in v~: The fourth order, they understand the rest which, being gathered in their chambers, they now enjoy with great quietness, guarded by angels, and the glory that awaits them in the last days.

LES 7:96 Removed trailing space in v~: The fifth order, they rejoice that they have now escaped from that which is corruptible, and that they will inherit that which is to come, while they see in addition the difficulty and the pain from which they have been delivered, and the spacious liberty which they will receive with joy and immortality.

LES 7:97 Removed trailing space in v~: The sixth order, when it is shown to them how their face will shine like the sun, and how they will be made like the light of the stars, being incorruptible from then on.

LES 7:98 Removed trailing space in v~: The seventh order, which is greater than all the previously mentioned orders, because they will rejoice with confidence, and because they will be bold without confusion, and will be glad without fear, for they hurry to see the face of him whom in their lifetime they served, and from whom they will receive their reward in glory.

LES 7:99 Removed trailing space in v~: This is the order of the souls of the just, as from henceforth is announced to them. Previously mentioned are the ways of torture which those who would not give heed will suffer from after this.”

LES 7:100 Removed trailing space in v~: I answered, “Will time therefore be given to the souls after they are separated from the bodies, that they may see what you have described to me?”

LES 7:101 Removed trailing space in v~: He said, “Their freedom will be for seven days, that for seven days they may see the things you have been told, and afterwards they will be gathered together in their habitations.”

LES 7:102 Removed trailing space in v~: I answered, “If I have found favour in your sight, show further to me your servant whether in the day of judgement the just will be able to intercede for the ungodly or to entreat the Most High for them,

LES 7:103 Removed trailing space in v~: whether fathers for children, or children for parents, or kindred for kindred, or kinsfolk for their next of kin, or friends for those who are most dear.”

LES 7:104 Removed trailing space in v~: He answered me, “Since you have found favour in my sight, I will show you this also.

LES 7:105 Removed trailing space in v~: so no one will ever pray for another in that day, neither will one lay a burden on another, for then everyone will each bear his own righteousness or unrighteousness.”

LES 7:106 Removed trailing space in v~: I answered, “How do we now find that first Abraham prayed for the people of Sodom, and Moses for the ancestors who sinned in the wilderness,

LES 7:111 Removed trailing space in v~: If therefore now, when corruption has grown and unrighteousness increased, the righteous have prayed for the ungodly, why will it not be so then also?”

LES 7:112 Removed trailing space in v~: He answered me, “This present world is not the end. The full glory doesn’t remain in it. Therefore those who were able prayed for the weak.

LES 7:113 Removed trailing space in v~: But the day of judgement will be the end of this age, and the beginning of the immortality to come, in which corruption has passed away,

LES 7:114 Removed trailing space in v~: intemperance is at an end, infidelity is cut off, but righteousness has grown, and truth has sprung up.

LES 7:115 Removed trailing space in v~: Then no one will be able to have mercy on him who is condemned in judgement, nor to harm someone who is victorious.”

LES 7:116 Removed trailing space in v~: I answered then, “This is my first and last saying, that it would have been better if the earth had not produced Adam, or else, when it had produced him, to have restrained him from sinning.

LES 7:117 Removed trailing space in v~: For what profit is it for all who are in this present time to live in heaviness, and after death to look for punishment?

LES 7:118 Removed trailing space in v~: O Adam, what have you done? For though it was you who sinned, the evil hasn’t fallen on you alone, but on all of us who come from you.

LES 7:119 Removed trailing space in v~: For what profit is it to us, if an immortal time is promised to us, but we have done deeds that bring death?

LES 7:120 Removed trailing space in v~: And that there is promised us an everlasting hope, but we have most miserably failed?

LES 7:121 Removed trailing space in v~: And that there are reserved habitations of health and safety, but we have lived wickedly?

LES 7:122 Removed trailing space in v~: And that the glory of the Most High will defend those who have led a pure life, but we have walked in the most wicked ways of all?

LES 7:123 Removed trailing space in v~: And that a paradise will be revealed, whose fruit endures without decay, in which is abundance and healing, but we won’t enter into it,

LES 7:124 Removed trailing space in v~: for we have lived in perverse ways?

LES 7:125 Removed trailing space in v~: And that the faces of those who have practised self-control will shine more than the stars, but our faces will be blacker than darkness?

LES 7:126 Removed trailing space in v~: For while we lived and committed iniquity, we didn’t consider what we would have to suffer after death.”

LES 7:127 Removed trailing space in v~: Then he answered, “This is the significance of the battle which humans born on the earth will fight:

LES 7:128 Removed trailing space in v~: if they are overcome, they will suffer as you have said, but if they get the victory, they will receive the thing that I say.

LES 7:129 Removed trailing space in v~: For this is the way that Moses spoke to the people while he lived, saying, ‘Choose life, that you may live!’

LES 7:130 Removed trailing space in v~: Nevertheless they didn’t believe him or the prophets after him, not even me, who have spoken to them.

LES 7:131 Removed trailing space in v~: Therefore there won’t be such heaviness in their destruction, as there will be joy over those who are assured of salvation.”

LES 7:132 Removed trailing space in v~: Then I answered, “I know, Lord, that the Most High is now called merciful, in that he has mercy upon those who have not yet come into the world;

LES 7:133 Removed trailing space in v~: and compassionate, in that he has compassion upon those who turn to his law;

LES 7:134 Removed trailing space in v~: and patient, in that he is patient with those who have sinned, since they are his creatures;

LES 7:135 Removed trailing space in v~: and bountiful, in that he is ready to give rather than to take away;

LES 7:136 Removed trailing space in v~: and very merciful, in that he multiplies more and more mercies to those who are present, and who are past, and also to those who are to come—

LES 7:137 Removed trailing space in v~: for if he wasn’t merciful, the world wouldn’t continue with those who dwell in it—

LES 7:138 Removed trailing space in v~: and one who forgives, for if he didn’t forgive out of his goodness, that those who have committed iniquities might be relieved of them, not even one ten thousandth part of mankind would remain living;

LES 10:6 Removed trailing space in v~: “You most foolish woman, don’t you see our mourning, and what has happened to us?

LES 10:7 Removed trailing space in v~: For Zion the mother of us all is full of sorrow, and much humbled.

LES 10:23 Removed trailing space in v~: What is more than all, the seal of Zion has now lost the seal of her honour, and is delivered into the hands of those who hate us.

LES 10:24 Removed trailing space in v~: Therefore shake off your great heaviness, and put away from yourself the multitude of sorrows, that the Mighty One may be merciful to you again, and the Most High may give you rest, even ease from your troubles.”

LES 10:25 Removed trailing space in v~: It came to pass while I was talking with her, behold, her face suddenly began to shine exceedingly, and her countenance glistered like lightning, so that I was very afraid of her, and wondered what this meant.

LES 10:26 Removed trailing space in v~: Behold, suddenly she made a great and very fearful cry, so that the earth shook at the noise.

LES 10:27 Removed trailing space in v~: I looked, and behold, the woman appeared to me no more, but there was a city built, and a place shown itself from large foundations. Then I was afraid, and cried with a loud voice,

LES 10:28 Removed trailing space in v~: “Where is Uriel the angel, who came to me at the first? For he has caused me to fall into this great trance, and my end has turned into corruption, and my prayer a reproach!”

LES 10:29 Removed trailing space in v~: As I was speaking these words, behold, the angel who had come to me at first came to me, and he looked at me.

LES 10:30 Removed trailing space in v~: Behold, I lay as one who had been dead, and my understanding was taken from me. He took me by the right hand, and comforted me, and set me on my feet, and said to me,

LES 10:31 Removed trailing space in v~: “What ails you? Why are you so troubled? Why is your understanding and the thoughts of your heart troubled?”

LES 10:32 Removed trailing space in v~: I said, “Because you have forsaken me; yet I did according to your words, and went into the field, and, behold, I have seen, and still see, that which I am not able to explain.”

LES 10:33 Removed trailing space in v~: He said to me, “Stand up like a man, and I will instruct you.”

LES 10:34 Removed trailing space in v~: Then I said, “Speak on, my Lord; only don’t forsake me, lest I die before my time.

LES 10:35 Removed trailing space in v~: For I have seen what I didn’t know, and hear what I don’t know.

LES 10:36 Removed trailing space in v~: Or is my sense deceived, or my soul in a dream?

LES 10:37 Removed trailing space in v~: Now therefore I beg you to explain to your servant what this vision means.”

LES 10:38 Removed trailing space in v~: He answered me, “Listen to me, and I will inform you, and tell you about the things you are afraid of, for the Most High has revealed many secret things to you.

LES 10:39 Removed trailing space in v~: He has seen that your way is righteous, because you are continually sorry for your people, and make great lamentation for Zion.

LES 10:40 Removed trailing space in v~: This therefore is the meaning of the vision.

LES 10:41 Removed trailing space in v~: The woman who appeared to you a little while ago, whom you saw mourning, and began to comfort her,

LES 10:42 Removed trailing space in v~: but now you no longer see the likeness of the woman, but a city under construction appeared to you,

LES 10:43 Removed trailing space in v~: and she told you of the death of her son, this is the interpretation:

LES 10:44 Removed trailing space in v~: This woman, whom you saw, is Zion,\f + \fr 10:44 \ft So the Syriac and other versions. The Latin is incorrect.\f* whom you now see as a city being built.

LES 10:45 Removed trailing space in v~: She told you that she had been barren for thirty years because there were three thousand years in the world in which there was no offering as yet offered in her.

LES 10:46 Removed trailing space in v~: And it came to pass after three thousand years that Solomon built the city and offered offerings. It was then that the barren bore a son.

LES 10:47 Removed trailing space in v~: She told you that she nourished him with great care. That was the dwelling in Jerusalem.

LES 10:48 Removed trailing space in v~: When she said to you, ‘My son died when he entered into his marriage chamber, and that misfortune befell her,’ this was the destruction that came to Jerusalem.

LES 10:49 Removed trailing space in v~: Behold, you saw her likeness, how she mourned for her son, and you began to comfort her for what has happened to her. These were the things to be opened to you.

LES 10:50 Removed trailing space in v~: For now the Most High, seeing that you are sincerely grieved and suffer from your whole heart for her, has shown you the brightness of her glory and the attractiveness of her beauty.

LES 10:51 Removed trailing space in v~: Therefore I asked you to remain in the field where no house was built,

LES 10:52 Removed trailing space in v~: for I knew that the Most High would show this to you.

LES 10:53 Removed trailing space in v~: Therefore I commanded you to come into the field, where no foundation of any building was.

LES 10:54 Removed trailing space in v~: For no human construction could stand in the place in which the city of the Most High was to be shown.

LES 10:55 Removed trailing space in v~: Therefore don’t be afraid nor let your heart be terrified, but go your way in and see the beauty and greatness of the building, as much as your eyes are able to see.

LES 10:56 Removed trailing space in v~: Then will you hear as much as your ears may comprehend.

LES 10:57 Removed trailing space in v~: For you are more blessed than many, and are called by name to be with the Most High, like only a few.

LES 10:58 Removed trailing space in v~: But tomorrow at night you shall remain here,

LES 10:59 Removed trailing space in v~: and so the Most High will show you those visions in dreams of what the Most High will do to those who live on the earth in the last days.”

LES 10:59 Removed trailing space in p~: So I slept that night and another, as he commanded me.

LES 11:4 Removed trailing space in v~: But her heads were at rest. The head in the middle was larger than the other heads, yet rested it with them.

LES 11:5 Removed trailing space in v~: Moreover I saw, and behold, the eagle flew with her wings to reign over the earth and over those who dwell therein.

LES 11:6 Removed trailing space in v~: I saw how all things under heaven were subject to her, and no one spoke against her—no, not one creature on earth.

LES 14:22 Removed trailing space in v~: But if I have found favour before you, send the Holy Spirit to me, and I will write all that has been done in the world since the beginning, even the things that were written in your law, that men may be able to find the path, and that those who would live in the latter days may live.”

LES 14:23 Removed trailing space in v~: He answered me and said, “Go your way, gather the people together, and tell them not to seek you for forty days.

LES 14:24 Removed trailing space in v~: But prepare for yourself many tablets, and take with you Sarea, Dabria, Selemia, Ethanus, and Asiel, these five, which are ready to write swiftly;

LES 14:25 Removed trailing space in v~: and come here, and I will light a lamp of understanding in your heart which will not be put out until the things have ended about which you will write.

LES 14:26 Removed trailing space in v~: When you are done, some things you shall publish openly, and some things you shall deliver in secret to the wise. Tomorrow at this hour you will begin to write.”

LES 14:27 Removed trailing space in v~: Then went I out, as he commanded me, and gathered all the people together, and said,

LES 14:28 Removed trailing space in v~: “Hear these words, O Israel!

LES 14:29 Removed trailing space in v~: Our fathers at the beginning were foreigners in Egypt, and they were delivered from there,

LES 14:30 Removed trailing space in v~: and received the law of life, which they didn’t keep, which you also have transgressed after them.

LES 14:31 Removed trailing space in v~: Then the land of Zion was given to you for a possession; but you yourselves and your ancestors have done unrighteousness, and have not kept the ways which the Most High commanded you.

LES 14:32 Removed trailing space in v~: Because he is a righteous judge, in due time, he took from you what he had given you.

LES 14:33 Removed trailing space in v~: Now you are here, and your kindred are amongst you.

LES 14:34 Removed trailing space in v~: Therefore if you will rule over your own understanding and instruct your hearts, you will be kept alive, and after death you will obtain mercy.

LES 14:35 Removed trailing space in v~: For after death the judgement will come, when we will live again. Then the names of the righteous will become manifest, and the works of the ungodly will be declared.

LES 14:36 Removed trailing space in v~: Let no one therefore come to me now, nor seek me for forty days.”

LES 14:37 Removed trailing space in v~: So I took the five men, as he commanded me, and we went out into the field, and remained there.

LES 14:38 Removed trailing space in v~: It came to pass on the next day that, behold, a voice called me, saying, “Esdras, open your mouth, and drink what I give you to drink.”

LES 14:39 Removed trailing space in v~: Then opened I my mouth, and behold, a full cup was handed to me. It was full of something like water, but its colour was like fire.

LES 14:40 Removed trailing space in v~: I took it, and drank. When I had drunk it, my heart uttered understanding, and wisdom grew in my breast, for my spirit retained its memory.

LES 14:41 Removed trailing space in v~: My mouth was opened, and shut no more.

LES 14:42 Removed trailing space in v~: The Most High gave understanding to the five men, and they wrote by course the things that were told them, in \f + \fr 14:42 \ft So the Oriental versions. \f*characters which they didn’t know, and they sat forty days. Now they wrote in the day-time, and at night they ate bread.

Now they wrote in the day-time, and at night they ate bread.

LES 14:43 Removed trailing space in v~: As for me, I spoke in the day, and by night I didn’t hold my tongue.

LES 14:44 Removed trailing space in v~: So in forty days, ninety-four books were written.

LES 14:45 Removed trailing space in v~: It came to pass, when the forty days were fulfilled, that the Most High spoke to me, saying, “The first books that you have written, publish openly, and let the worthy and unworthy read them;

LES 14:46 Removed trailing space in v~: but keep the last seventy, that you may deliver them to those who are wise amongst your people;

LES 14:47 Removed trailing space in v~: for in them is the spring of understanding, the fountain of wisdom, and the stream of knowledge.”

LES 14:48 Removed trailing space in v~: I did so.

LES 15:31 Removed trailing space in v~: Then the dragons will have the upper hand, remembering their nature. If they will turn themselves, conspiring together in great power to persecute them,

LES 15:32 Removed trailing space in v~: then these will be troubled, and keep silence through their power, and will turn and flee.

LES 15:33 Removed trailing space in v~: From the land of the Assyrians, an enemy in ambush will attack them and destroy one of them. Upon their army will be fear and trembling, and indecision upon their kings.

LES 15:34 Removed trailing space in v~: Behold, clouds from the east, and from the north to the south! They are very horrible to look at, full of wrath and storm.

LES 15:35 Removed trailing space in v~: They will clash against one another. They will pour out a heavy storm on the earth, even their own storm. There will be blood from the sword to the horse’s belly,

LES 15:36 Removed trailing space in v~: and to the thigh of man, and to the camel’s hock.

LES 15:37 Removed trailing space in v~: There will be fearfulness and great trembling upon earth. They who see that wrath will be afraid, and trembling will seize them.

LES 15:38 Removed trailing space in v~: After this, great storms will be stirred up from the south, from the north, and another part from the west.

LES 15:39 Removed trailing space in v~: Strong winds will arise from the east, and will shut it up, even the cloud which he raised up in wrath; and the storm that was to cause destruction by the east wind will be violently driven towards the south and west.

LES 15:40 Removed trailing space in v~: Great and mighty clouds, full of wrath, will be lifted up with the storm, that they may destroy all the earth and those who dwell in it. They will pour out over every high and lofty one a terrible storm,

LES 15:43 Removed trailing space in v~: They will go on steadily to Babylon and destroy her.

LES 15:45 Removed trailing space in v~: Those who remain will serve those who have destroyed it.

LES 15:46 Removed trailing space in v~: You, Asia, who are partaker in the beauty of Babylon, and in the glory of her person—

LES 15:47 Removed trailing space in v~: woe to you, you wretch, because you have made yourself like her. You have decked out your daughters for prostitution, that they might please and glory in your lovers, which have always lusted after you!

LES 15:48 Removed trailing space in v~: You have followed her who is hateful in all her works and inventions. Therefore God says,

LES 15:49 Removed trailing space in v~: “I will send evils on you: widowhood, poverty, famine, sword, and pestilence, to lay waste your houses and bring you to destruction and death.

LES 15:50 Removed trailing space in v~: The glory of your power will be dried up like a flower when the heat rises that is sent over you.

LES 15:51 Removed trailing space in v~: You will be weakened like a poor woman who is beaten and wounded, so that you won’t be able to receive your mighty ones and your lovers.

LES 15:53 Removed trailing space in v~: “if you had not always slain my chosen, exalting and clapping of your hands, and saying over their dead, when you were drunk?

LES 15:54 Removed trailing space in v~: “Beautify your face!

LES 15:55 Removed trailing space in v~: The reward of a prostitute will be in your bosom, therefore you will be repaid.

LES 16:21 Removed trailing space in v~: Behold, food will be so cheap on earth that they will think themselves to be in good condition, and even then calamities will grow on earth: sword, famine, and great confusion.

LES 16:22 Removed trailing space in v~: For many of those who dwell on earth will perish of famine; and others who escape the famine, the sword will destroy.

LES 16:23 Removed trailing space in v~: The dead will be cast out like dung, and there will be no one to comfort them; for the earth will be left desolate, and its cities will be cast down.

LES 16:32 Removed trailing space in v~: The earth will be left desolate, and its fields will be for briers, and its roads and all her paths will grow thorns, because no sheep will pass along them.

LES 16:33 Removed trailing space in v~: The virgins will mourn, having no bridegrooms. The women will mourn, having no husbands. Their daughters will mourn, having no helpers.

LES 16:34 Removed trailing space in v~: Their bridegrooms will be destroyed in the wars, and their husbands will perish of famine.

LES 16:35 Removed trailing space in v~: Hear now these things, and understand them, you servants of the Lord.

LES 16:36 Removed trailing space in v~: Behold, the Lord’s word: receive it. Don’t doubt the things about which the Lord speaks.

LES 16:37 Removed trailing space in v~: Behold, the calamities draw near, and are not delayed.

LES 16:39 Removed trailing space in v~: even so the calamities won’t delay coming upon the earth. The world will groan, and sorrows will seize it on every side.

LES 16:40 Removed trailing space in v~: “O my people, hear my word: prepare for battle, and in those calamities be like strangers on the earth.

LES 16:41 Removed trailing space in v~: He who sells, let him be as he who flees away, and he who buys, as one who will lose.

LES 16:43 Removed trailing space in v~: and he who sows, as if he wouldn’t reap, so also he who prunes the vines, as he who won’t gather the grapes,

LES 16:44 Removed trailing space in v~: those who marry, as those who will have no children, and those who don’t marry, as the widowed.

LES 16:45 Removed trailing space in v~: Because of this, those who labour, labour in vain;

LES 16:46 Removed trailing space in v~: for foreigners will reap their fruits, plunder their goods, overthrow their houses, and take their children captive, for in captivity and famine they will conceive their children.

LES 16:47 Removed trailing space in v~: Those who conduct business, do so only to be plundered. The more they adorn their cities, their houses, their possessions, and their own persons,

LES 16:48 Removed trailing space in v~: the more I will hate them for their sins,” says the Lord.

LES 16:49 Removed trailing space in v~: Just as a respectable and virtuous woman hates a prostitute,

LES 16:50 Removed trailing space in v~: so will righteousness hate iniquity, when she adorns herself, and will accuse her to her face, when he comes who will defend him who diligently searches out every sin on earth.

LES 16:51 Removed trailing space in v~: Therefore don’t be like her or her works.

LES 16:52 Removed trailing space in v~: For yet a little while, and iniquity will be taken away out of the earth, and righteousness will reign over us.

LES 16:53 Removed trailing space in v~: Don’t let the sinner say that he has not sinned; for God will burn coals of fire on the head of one who says “I haven’t sinned before God and his glory.”

LES 16:54 Removed trailing space in v~: Behold, the Lord knows all the works of men, their imaginations, their thoughts, and their hearts.

LES 16:55 Removed trailing space in v~: He said, “Let the earth be made,” and it was made, “Let the sky be made,” and it was made.

LES 16:56 Removed trailing space in v~: At his word, the stars were established, and he knows the number of the stars.

LES 16:57 Removed trailing space in v~: He searches the deep and its treasures. He has measured the sea and what it contains.

LES 16:58 Removed trailing space in v~: He has shut the sea in the midst of the waters, and with his word, he hung the earth over the waters.

LES 16:59 Removed trailing space in v~: He has spread out the sky like a vault. He has founded it over the waters.

LES 16:60 Removed trailing space in v~: He has made springs of water in the desert and pools on the tops of the mountains to send out rivers from the heights to water the earth.

LES 16:61 Removed trailing space in v~: He formed man, and put a heart in the midst of the body, and gave him breath, life, and understanding,

LES 16:62 Removed trailing space in v~: yes, the spirit of God Almighty. He who made all things and searches out hidden things in hidden places,

LES 16:63 Removed trailing space in v~: surely he knows your imagination, and what you think in your hearts. Woe to those who sin, and try to hide their sin!

LES 16:64 Removed trailing space in v~: Because the Lord will exactly investigate all your works, and he will put you all to shame.

LES 16:65 Removed trailing space in v~: When your sins are brought out before men, you will be ashamed, and your own iniquities will stand as your accusers in that day.

LES 16:66 Removed trailing space in v~: What will you do? Or how will you hide your sins before God and his angels?

LES 16:67 Removed trailing space in v~: Behold, God is the judge. Fear him! Stop sinning, and forget your iniquities, to never again commit them. So will God lead you out, and deliver you from all suffering.

LES 16:68 Removed trailing space in v~: For, behold, the burning wrath of a great multitude is kindled over you, and they will take away some of you, and feed you with that which is sacrificed to idols.

LES 16:69 Removed trailing space in v~: Those who consent to them will be held in derision and in contempt, and be trodden under foot.

LES 16:70 Removed trailing space in v~: For there will be in various places, and in the next cities, a great insurrection against those who fear the Lord.

LES 16:71 Removed trailing space in v~: They will be like mad men, sparing none, but spoiling and destroying those who still fear the Lord.

LES 16:72 Removed trailing space in v~: For they will destroy and plunder their goods, and throw them out of their houses.

LES 16:73 Removed trailing space in v~: Then the trial of my elect will be made known, even as the gold that is tried in the fire.

LES 16:74 Removed trailing space in v~: Hear, my elect ones, says the Lord: “Behold, the days of suffering are at hand, and I will deliver you from them.

LES 16:75 Removed trailing space in v~: Don’t be afraid, and don’t doubt, for God is your guide.

LES 16:76 Removed trailing space in v~: You who keep my commandments and precepts,” says the Lord God, “don’t let your sins weigh you down, and don’t let your iniquities lift themselves up.”

LES 16:77 Removed trailing space in v~: Woe to those who are choked with their sins and covered with their iniquities, like a field is choked with bushes, and its path covered with thorns, that no one may travel through!

LES 16:78 Removed trailing space in v~: It is shut off and given up to be consumed by fire.
