2 Esdras 2:21
King James VersionSource notes
“Heal the broken and the weak, laugh not a lame man to scorn, defend the maimed, and let the blind man come into the sight of my clearness.”
Context
18For thy help will I send my servants Esau and Jeremy, after whose counsel I have sanctified and prepared for thee twelve trees laden with divers fruits,
19And as many fountains flowing with milk and honey, and seven mighty mountains, whereupon there grow roses and lilies, whereby I will fill thy children with joy.
20Do right to the widow, judge for the fatherless, give to the poor, defend the orphan, clothe the naked,
21Heal the broken and the weak, laugh not a lame man to scorn, defend the maimed, and let the blind man come into the sight of my clearness.
22Keep the old and young within thy walls.
23Wheresoever thou findest the dead, take them and bury them, and I will give thee the first place in my resurrection.
24Abide still, O my people, and take thy rest, for thy quietness still come.
