2 Esdras 4:44-48

1. 44 Then answered I and said, If I have found favour in thy sight, and if it be possible, and if I be meet therefore,

2. 45 Shew me then whether there be more to come than is past, or more past than is to come.

3. 46 What is past I know, but what is for to come I know not.

4. 47 And he said unto me, Stand up upon the right side, and I shall expound the similitude unto thee.

5. 48 So I stood, and saw, and, behold, an hot burning oven passed by before me: and it happened that when the flame was gone by I looked, and, behold, the smoke remained still.
