2 Esdras 6:55-57
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
Why Do God’s People Suffer?
55 ‘All this I have spoken before you, O Lord, because you have said that it was for us that you created this world.[a] 56 As for the other nations that have descended from Adam, you have said that they are nothing, and that they are like spittle, and you have compared their abundance to a drop from a bucket. 57 And now, O Lord, these nations, which are reputed to be as nothing, domineer over us and devour us.
