2 Esdras 11:26
King James VersionSource notes
“And I beheld, and, lo, there was one set up, but shortly it appeared no more.”
Context
23And there was no more upon the eagle’s body, but three heads that rested, and six little wings.
24Then 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.
25And I beheld, and, lo, the feathers that were under the wing thought to set up themselves and to have the rule.
26And I beheld, and, lo, there was one set up, but shortly it appeared no more.
27And the second was sooner away than the first.
28And I beheld, and, lo, the two that remained thought also in themselves to reign:
29And when they so thought, behold, there awaked one of the heads that were at rest, namely, it that was in the midst; for that was greater than the two other heads.
