2 Esdras 14:22

22 If then I have found favor before you, send a holy spirit into me, and I will write everything that has happened in the world from the beginning, the things that were written in your Law, so that human beings can find the path, and those who want to live in the last days may live."

2 Esdras 14:22 In-Context

20 The world is in darkness. Those who live in it have no light,

21 because your Law has been burned, and so no one knows what things you have done or what works are about to come to pass.

22 If then I have found favor before you, send a holy spirit into me, and I will write everything that has happened in the world from the beginning, the things that were written in your Law, so that human beings can find the path, and those who want to live in the last days may live."

23 He replied to me: "Go, gather the people and say to them that they shouldn't seek you for forty days.

24 Gather up many writing tablets, and take with you Sarea, Dabria, Selemia, Ethanus, and Asiel, these five, who are trained to write fast.
