2 Esdras 11:21

21 and others of them rose up, but did not hold the rule.

2 Esdras 11:21 In-Context

19 And so it went with all the wings; they wielded power one after another and then were never seen again.
20 And I looked, and behold, in due course the wings that followed also rose up on the right side, in order to rule. There were some of them that ruled, yet disappeared suddenly;
21 and others of them rose up, but did not hold the rule.
22 And after this I looked, and behold, the twelve wings and the two little wings disappeared;
23 and nothing remained on the eagle's body except the three heads that were at rest and six little wings.
