2 Esdras 1:6-9 Common English Bible (CEB)

6. because the children have added to their parents’ sins. They forgot me and offered sacrifices to foreign gods!

7. Didn’t I bring them out of the land of Egypt where they lived in slavery? Why then have they angered me and rejected my advice?

8. Therefore, the Lord says: Tear out your hair and hurl every kind of disaster at them, because they haven’t obeyed my Law. Undisciplined people!

9. How long will I put up with them—and after I granted them so many favors?
