2 Esdras 1:21

21 I divided fertile lands among you; I drove out the Canaanites, the Perizzites, and the Philistines ^[a] before you. What more can I do for you? says the Lord.

2 Esdras 1:21 In-Context

19 I pitied your groanings and gave you manna for food; you ate the bread of angels.

20 When you were thirsty, did I not split the rock so that waters flowed in abundance? Because of the heat I clothed you with the leaves of trees.

21 I divided fertile lands among you; I drove out the Canaanites, the Perizzites, and the Philistines before you. What more can I do for you? says the Lord.

22 Thus says the Lord Almighty: When you were in the wilderness, at the bitter stream, thirsty and blaspheming my name,

23 I did not send fire on you for your blasphemies, but threw a tree into the water and made the stream sweet.
