61 The Lord created human beings and gave each one of them a heart. He gave them life, breath, and understanding,

2 Esdras 16:61 In-Context

59 The Lord stretched out the sky and fixed it firmly over the water like a dome.
60 He put springs of water in the desert and lakes in the high mountains, so that water could flow down in the rivers and water the land.
61 The Lord created human beings and gave each one of them a heart. He gave them life, breath, and understanding,
62 which is the spirit of God the Almighty, who created everything and who knows all secrets and sees into all hidden places.
63 My people, the Lord knows everything you plan and the secret thoughts of your heart. Sinners who try to hide their sins are doomed.
