2 Esdras 1:27

Listen to 2 Esdras 1:27

2 Esdras 1:27 In-Context

25 Because you have abandoned me, I will abandon you. You will beg me for mercy, but I will show you none.
26 When you pray to me, I will not hear you. You never hesitate to commit murder; your hands are stained with the blood of those you have killed.
27 It is not me that you have betrayed; you have betrayed yourselves.
28 "The Lord Almighty says: I have pleaded with you as a father pleads with his sons, as a mother pleads with her daughters, or as a nursemaid pleads with her small children.
29 I begged you to be my people so that I could be your God, to be my children so that I could be your father.
Scripture taken from the Good News Translation - Second Edition, Copyright 1992 by American Bible Society. Used by Permission.
