2 Esdras 12:24

24 and greatly oppress those who dwell on it, more than all the rest who were before them. Therefore, they are called the heads of the eagle,

2 Esdras 12:24 In-Context

22 “As for the fact that you saw three heads at rest,
23 this is the interpretation: In the last period the Most High will raise up three kings, and he will renew many things in it, and they will rule the earth
24 and greatly oppress those who dwell on it, more than all the rest who were before them. Therefore, they are called the heads of the eagle,
25 because they will sum up its acts of impiety and complete its last deeds.
26 “As for your seeing the biggest head disappear, one of the kings will die on his bed, though in agonies.
