2 Esdras 8:11

11 By this means, that which is fashioned may be nourished for a time, and afterward you will dispose of this person in your mercy.

2 Esdras 8:11 In-Context

9 But both the container and its contents will be conserved by your care. And when the womb at last gives forth what is created in it,

10 you have commanded that from the members themselves; that is, from the breasts, milk (the fruit of the breasts) should be provided.

11 By this means, that which is fashioned may be nourished for a time, and afterward you will dispose of this person in your mercy.

12 You nourished him with your justice, tutored him in your Law, and reproved him in your wisdom.

13 You will cause him to die as your creation and give him life as your work.
