2 Esdras 8:16
15. Now therefore, Lord, I will speak; touching man in general, thou knowest best; but touching thy people, for whose sake I am sorry;16. And for thine inheritance, for whose cause I mourn; and for Israel, for whom I am heavy; and for Jacob, for whose sake I am troubled;17. Therefore will I begin to pray before thee for myself and for them: for I see the falls of us that dwell in the land.
