2 Esdras 8:20-22
Common English Bible
20 The beginning of the words of Ezra’s prayer before he was taken up.[a] He said:
Lord, you live in eternity.[b] The highest heavens are yours, and your upper chambers are in the air. 21 Your authority[c] is beyond estimation, and your glory is beyond our power to comprehend. The armies of angels wait on in fear, 22 and at your command they are changed into wind and fire. Your word is true, and what you say lasts forever.
