8
And He said unto me, "From Abraham unto Isaac, when Jacob and Esau were born of him, Jacob's hand held from the beginning the heel of Esau.
9
For Esau is the end of the world, and Jacob is the beginning of that which followeth.
10
The hand of man is between the heel and the hand. The other question, Ezra, ask thou not."
11
I answered then and said, "O Lord who bearest rule, if I have found favor in Thy sight,
12
I beseech Thee, show Thy servant the end of Thy signs, whereof Thou showed me part the last night."
13
So He answered and said unto me, "Stand up upon thy feet, and hear a mighty sounding voice.
14
And it shall be, as it were, a great motion; but the place where thou standest shall not be moved.
15
And therefore when it speaketh be not afraid; for the word is concerning the end, and the foundation of the earth is understood.
16
And why? Because the speech of these things trembleth and is moved, for it knoweth that the end of these things must be changed."
