2 Esdras 12:1 In-Context

1 And it came to pass, while the lion spoke these words unto the eagle, I saw,
2 and behold, the head that remained and the four wings appeared no more; and the two went unto it and set themselves up to reign, and their kingdom was small and full of uproar.
3 And I saw, and behold, they appeared no more; and the whole body of the eagle was burned so that the earth was in great fear. Then I awoke out of the trouble and trance of my mind and from great fear, and said unto my spirit,
4 "Lo, this hast thou done unto me, in that thou searchest out the ways of the Highest.
5 Lo, yet am I weary in my mind and very weak in my spirit; and little strength is there in me because of the great fear wherewith I was afflicted this night.
