2 Esdras 15:15-17

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁵ For the sword and misery draw near them, and nation shall rise up to fight against nation, with swords in their hands. ¹⁶ For there shall be unrest among people; growing strong against one another, they shall in their might have no respect for their king or the chief of their leaders. ¹⁷ For a person will desire to go into a city, and shall not be able to do so.
