2 Esdras 15:58-60
Revised Standard Version
58 And those who are in the mountains and highlands[a] shall perish of hunger, and they shall eat their own flesh in hunger for bread and drink their own blood in thirst for water. 59 Unhappy above all others, you shall come and suffer fresh afflictions. 60 And as they pass they shall wreck the hateful[b] city, and shall destroy a part of your land and abolish a portion of your glory, as they return from devastated Babylon.
