2 Esdras 16:12-22

12 The earth quaketh and the foundations thereof; the sea ariseth up with waves from the deep, and the waves of it are troubled, and the fishes thereof also before the Lord, and before the glory of His power.
13 For strong is His right hand that bendeth the bow; His arrows that He shooteth are sharp and shall not miss when they begin to be shot into the ends of the world.
14 Behold, the plagues are sent, and shall not return again until they come upon the earth.
15 The fire is kindled, and shall not be put out till it consume the foundation of the earth.
16 As an arrow which is shot by a mighty archer returneth not backward, even so the plagues that shall be sent upon earth shall not return again.
17 Woe is me! Woe is me! Who will deliver me in those days?
18 The beginning of sorrows and great mournings; the beginning of famine and great death; the beginning of wars, and the powers shall stand in fear; the beginning of evils! What shall I do when these evils shall come?
19 Behold, famine and plague, tribulation and anguish, are sent as scourges for amendment.
20 But for all these things they shall not turn from their wickedness, nor be always mindful of the scourges.
21 Behold, victuals shall be so good and cheap upon earth that they shall think themselves to be in a good state, and even then shall evils grow upon earth; sword, famine, and great confusion.
22 For many of them that dwell upon earth shall perish of famine; and the others that escape the hunger shall the sword destroy.
