2 Esdras 11:8 In-Context

6 And I saw how all things under heaven were subjected to him, and no one spoke against him, not even one creature that was on the earth.

7 And I looked, and behold, the eagle rose upon his talons, and uttered a cry to his wings, saying,

8 "Do not all watch at the same time; let each sleep in his own place, and watch in his turn;

9 but let the heads be reserved for the last."

10 And I looked, and behold, the voice did not come from his heads, but from the midst of his body.
