Reading From Apocrypha Today
2 Esdras 5: 23 And said, O Lord that bearest rule, of every
wood of the earth, and of all the trees
thereof, thou hast chosen thee one only vine:
2 Esdras 5: 24 And of all lands of the whole world thou
hast chosen thee one pit: and of all the flowers thereof one lily:
2 Esdras 5: 25 And of all the depths of the sea thou hast filled thee one river: and of all builded cities thou hast hallowed Sion unto thyself:
2 Esdras 5: 26 And of all the fowls that are created thou hast named thee one dove: and of all the cattle that are made thou hast provided thee one sheep:
2 Esdras 5: 27 And among all the multitudes of people thou
hast gotten thee one people: and unto this people, whom thou
lovedst, thou gavest a law that is approved of all.
