2 Esdras 16:43

43 he that soweth, as if he should not reap; so also he that planteth the vineyard, as he that shall not gather the grapes;

2 Esdras 16:43 In-Context

41 He that selleth, let him be as he that fleeth away; and he that buyeth, as one that will lose;

42 he that tradeth in merchandise, as he that hath no profit by it; and he that buildeth, as he that shall not dwell therein;

43 he that soweth, as if he should not reap; so also he that planteth the vineyard, as he that shall not gather the grapes;

44 they that marry, as they that shall get no children; and they that marry not, as the widowers.

45 And therefore they that labor, labor in vain;
