2esd 9:34
King James Version
“And, lo, it is a custom, when the ground hath received seed, or the sea a ship, or any vessel meat or drink, that, that being perished wherein it was sown or cast into,”
Context
31For, behold, I sow my law in you, and it shall bring fruit in you, and ye shall be honoured in it for ever.
32But our fathers, which received the law, kept it not, and observed not thy ordinances: and though the fruit of thy law did not perish, neither could it, for it was thine;
33Yet they that received it perished, because they kept not the thing that was sown in them.
34And, lo, it is a custom, when the ground hath received seed, or the sea a ship, or any vessel meat or drink, that, that being perished wherein it was sown or cast into,
35That thing also which was sown, or cast therein, or received, doth perish, and remaineth not with us: but with us it hath not happened so.
36For we that have received the law perish by sin, and our heart also which received it
37Notwithstanding the law perisheth not, but remaineth in his force.
