2 Esdras 16:21-23 Good News Bible Anglicised (GNBDC)

21. The time is coming when food will be so cheap that people will think a time of peace and plenty has arrived. But then disasters will spring up everywhere — wars, famine, and great confusion.

22. Many people on earth will starve to death, and those who escape starvation will be killed in war.

23. Their corpses will be thrown out like dung, and there will be no one left to comfort the living. The earth will be deserted and its cities demolished.
