2 Esdras 10:1-3

Common English Bible

10 “But it happened that when my son went into his wedding chamber, he fell down and died. ² We extinguished all our lamps, and all my fellow citizens rose to console me. I was quiet until the next day, until nightfall. ³ But when all ceased consoling me so that I would be quiet, I got up at night and fled, and I came into this field, as you see.
