2 Esdras 4:46

46 What is past I know, but what is to come I know not."

2 Esdras 4:46 In-Context

44 Then answered I and said, "If I have found favor in thy sight, and if it be possible, and if I be meet therefore,

45 show me then whether there be more to come than is past, or more past than is to come.

46 What is past I know, but what is to come I know not."

47 And he said unto me, "Stand up upon the right side, and I shall expound a similitude unto thee."

48 So I stood and saw and, behold, a hot burning oven passed by before me; and it happened that when the flame had gone by I looked and, behold, the smoke remained still.
