2 Esdras 9:30

30 "Listen to me, people of Israel.

2 Esdras 9:30 In-Context

28 Then I began to speak and said to God Most High,

29 "O Lord, you revealed yourself to our ancestors when they were traveling through the trackless, barren desert after they had left Egypt. You said to them,

30 "Listen to me, people of Israel.

31 I am giving you my Law. It will be like a seed planted among you that produces fruit, and it will be your crowning glory forever.'

32 Our ancestors received the Law, but they disobeyed its commands. Yet the fruit of the Law was not destroyed - it could not be destroyed because it was yours.
