1 Esdras 8:88

88 Were you not angry enough with us to destroy us without leaving a root or seed or name?

1 Esdras 8:88 In-Context

86 And all that has happened to us has come about because of our evil deeds and our great sins. For you, O Lord, lifted the burden of our sins

87 and gave us such a root as this; but we turned back again to transgress your law by mixing with the uncleanness of the peoples of the land.

88 Were you not angry enough with us to destroy us without leaving a root or seed or name?

89 O Lord of Israel, you are faithful; for we are left as a root to this day.

90 See, we are now before you in our iniquities; for we can no longer stand in your presence because of these things."
