2 Esdras 3:18 In-Context

16 You set Jacob apart for yourself, but you set Esau aside, and Jacob became a great multitude.

17 When you brought his descendants out of Egypt, you led them to Mount Sinai.

18 You bent down the heavens; you shook the earth; you moved the world; you made the abyss tremble; you made the whole cosmos shudder.

19 Your glory passed through the four gates of fire, earthquake, wind, and ice so that you would give the Law to Jacob's descendants, the rules to be observed to Israel's offspring.

20 “But you didn't take away from them the inclination to do evil so that your Law might bear fruit in them.
