LUX VERITAS

Apócrifos

4 Esdras 13

1After seven days, I dreamed a dream at night. And behold, a wind rose from the sea and stirred up all its waves.

2And I looked, and behold, this wind made to rise from the heart of the sea as it were the figure of a man. And I looked, and behold, that man flew with the clouds of heaven.

3And wherever he turned his face to look, everything he saw trembled.

4And whenever the voice went out of his mouth, all who heard it melted, as wax melts before fire.

5After this, I looked and behold, an innumerable multitude of men gathered from the four winds of heaven to make war against the man who rose from the sea.

6And I looked, and behold, he carved for himself a great mountain and flew upon it.

7And I sought to see the region or place from which the mountain had been carved, but I could not.

8After this, I looked and behold, all who had gathered against him to make war were very frightened, but they dared to fight.

9And behold, when he saw the attack of the multitude that came, he did not raise his hand nor hold a sword or any weapon of war.

10But I saw only how he sent from his mouth as it were a stream of fire, and from his lips a flaming breath, and from his tongue he shot a storm of sparks.
