2 Esdras 12:21

21 And two of them shall perish, the middle time approaching; four shall be kept until their end begin to approach, but two shall be kept until the end.

2 Esdras 12:21 In-Context

19 And whereas thou sawest the eight small under feathers sticking to her wings, this is the interpretation:
20 that in him there shall arise eight kings, whose time shall be but small and their years swift.
21 And two of them shall perish, the middle time approaching; four shall be kept until their end begin to approach, but two shall be kept until the end.
22 And whereas thou sawest three heads resting, this is the interpretation:
23 in his last days shall the Most High raise up three kingdoms, and renew many things therein; and they shall have the dominion of the earth,
