2esd 16:36
King James Version
“Behold, the word of the Lord, receive it: believe not the gods of whom the Lord spake.”
Context
33The virgins shall mourn, having no bridegrooms; the women shall mourn, having no husbands; their daughters shall mourn, having no helpers.
34In the wars shall their bridegrooms be destroyed, and their husbands shall perish of famine.
35Hear now these things and understand them, ye servants of the Lord.
36Behold, the word of the Lord, receive it: believe not the gods of whom the Lord spake.
37Behold, the plagues draw nigh, and are not slack.
38As when a woman with child in the ninth month bringeth forth her son, with two or three hours of her birth great pains compass her womb, which pains, when the child cometh forth, they slack not a moment:
39Even so shall not the plagues be slack to come upon the earth, and the world shall mourn, and sorrows shall come upon it on every side.
