2esd 16:43
King James Version
“He that soweth, as if he should not reap: so also he that planteth the vineyard, as he that shall not gather the grapes:”
Context
40O my people, hear my word: make you ready to thy battle, and in those evils be even as pilgrims upon the earth.
41He that selleth, let him be as he that fleeth away: and he that buyeth, as one that will lose:
42He that occupieth merchandise, as he that hath no profit by it: and he that buildeth, as he that shall not dwell therein:
43He that soweth, as if he should not reap: so also he that planteth the vineyard, as he that shall not gather the grapes:
44They that marry, as they that shall get no children; and they that marry not, as the widowers.
45And therefore they that labour labour in vain:
46For strangers shall reap their fruits, and spoil their goods, overthrow their houses, and take their children captives, for in captivity and famine shall they get children.
