The Beginning Of Sorrows & Great Mornings, Running Out Of Time, Play Time Over!!! 5/13/2021

2 Esdras 16:17-35
Woe is me! woe is me! who will deliver me in those days?
18The beginning of sorrows and great mournings; the beginning of famine and great death; the beginning of wars, and the powers shall stand in fear; the beginning of evils! what shall I do when these evils shall come?
19Behold, famine and plague, tribulation and anguish, are sent as scourges for amendment.
20But for all these things they shall not turn from their wickedness, nor be always mindful of the scourges.
21Behold, victuals shall be so good cheap upon earth, that they shall think themselves to be in good case, and even then shall evils grow upon earth, sword, famine, and great confusion.
22For many of them that dwell upon earth shall perish of famine; and the other, that escape the hunger, shall the sword destroy.
23And the dead shall be cast out as dung, and there shall be no man to comfort them: for the earth shall be wasted, and the cities shall be cast down.
24There shall be no man left to till the earth, and to sow it
25The trees shall give fruit, and who shall gather them?
26The grapes shall ripen, and who shall tread them? for all places shall be desolate of men:
27So that one man shall desire to see another, and to hear his voice.
28For of a city there shall be ten left, and two of the field, which shall hide themselves in the thick groves, and in the clefts of the rocks.
29As in an orchard of Olives upon every tree there are left three or four olives;
30Or as when a vineyard is gathered, there are left some clusters of them that diligently seek through the vineyard:
31Even so in those days there shall be three or four left by them that search their houses with the sword.
32And the earth shall be laid waste, and the fields thereof shall wax old, and her ways and all her paths shall grow full of thorns, because no man shall travel therethrough.
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.
