2 Esdras 16:21

21 But in the midst of all these, they won't turn from their sins and won't keep the plagues in mind.

2 Esdras 16:21 In-Context

19 What will they do when the disasters come?

20 Look! A plague of famine has been sent out, and the distress it inflicts is like a whip, a punishment for discipline.

21 But in the midst of all these, they won't turn from their sins and won't keep the plagues in mind.

22 Look! In a short time provisions will be so cheap on earth that people will think that peace has been established for them, but then disasters will blossom all over the earth—the sword and famine.

23 They will lack life's necessities, and the sword will scatter those who survive the famine.
