2 Esdras 10:1-3

Revised Standard Version

10 “But it happened that when my son entered his wedding chamber, he fell down and died. ² Then we all put out the lamps, and all my neighbors^[a] attempted to console me; and I remained quiet until evening of the second day. ³ But when they all had stopped consoling me, that I might be quiet, I got up in the night and fled, and came to this field, as you see.
