30For the grain of evil seed hath been sown in the heart of Adam from the beginning, and how much ungodliness hath it brought up unto this time? and how much shall it yet bring forth until the time of threshing come?
31Ponder now by thyself, how great fruit of wickedness the grain of evil seed hath brought forth.
32And when the ears shall be cut down, which are without number, how great a floor shall they fill?
33Then I answered and said, How, and when shall these things come to pass? wherefore are our years few and evil?
34And he answered me, saying, Do not thou hasten above the most Highest: for thy haste is in vain to be above him, for thou hast much exceeded.
