2 Esdras 15:53

53 "If you had not always killed my chosen people, exulting and clapping your hands and talking about their death when you were drunk?

2 Esdras 15:53 In-Context

51 You shall be weakened like a wretched woman who is beaten and wounded, so that you cannot receive your mighty lovers.
52 Would I have dealt with you so violently," says the Lord,
53 "If you had not always killed my chosen people, exulting and clapping your hands and talking about their death when you were drunk?
54 Trick out the beauty of your face!
55 The reward of a harlot is in your bosom, therefore you shall receive your recompense.
