2 Esdras 10:54
King James VersionSource notes
“For in the place wherein the Highest beginneth to shew his city, there can no man’s building be able to stand.”
Context
51And therefore I bade thee remain in the field where no house was builded:
52For I knew that the Highest would shew this unto thee.
53Therefore I commanded thee to go into the field, where no foundation of any building was.
54For in the place wherein the Highest beginneth to shew his city, there can no man’s building be able to stand.
55And therefore fear not, let not thine heart be affrighted, but go thy way in, and see the beauty and greatness of the building, as much as thine eyes be able to see:
56And then shalt thou hear as much as thine ears may comprehend.
57For thou art blessed above many other, and art called with the Highest; and so are but few.
