1 On the third day, while I was sitting under an oak tree,
2 suddenly a voice came out of a bush near me and called, “Ezra! Ezra!”I stood up and answered, “Here I am, Lord.”
3 The voice continued, “I revealed myself from a bush and spoke to Moses when my people were slaves in Egypt.
4 I sent him to lead them out of Egypt, and I brought them to Mount Sinai. I kept Moses with me there on the mountain for a long time,
5 while I told him the secrets about the ages and the end of time. I told him
6 what to make public and what to keep secret.
