2 Esdras 15:15-17

Revised Standard Version

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 men; 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 man will desire to go into a city, and shall not be able.
