20. So I considered my world, and, behold, it was destroyed, and my earth, and, behold, it was in peril, because of the devices that were come into it.
21. And I saw, and spared them, but not greatly, and saved me a grape out of a cluster, and a plant out of a great forest.
22. Let the multitude perish then, which was born in vain; and let my grape be saved, and my plant; for with great labor have I made them perfect.
23. Nevertheless if you will cease yet seven days more, (howbeit you shall not fast in them,
24. but shall go into a field of flowers, where no house is builded, and eat only of the flowers of the field; and you shall taste no flesh, and shall drink no wine, but shall eat flowers only;)
25. and pray to the Most High continually, then will I come and talk with you.
26. So I went my way, like as he commanded me, into the field which is called Ardat; and there I sat among the flowers, and did eat of the herbs of the field, and the meat of the same satisfied me.
