2 Baruch 73

1'And it shall come to pass, when He has brought low everything that is in the world, And has sat down in peace for the age on the throne of His kingdom, That joy shall then be revealed, And rest shall appear.

2And then healing shall descend in dew, And disease shall withdraw, And anxiety and anguish and lamentation pass from amongst men, And gladness proceed through the whole earth.

3And no one shall again die untimely, Nor shall any adversity suddenly befall.

4And judgments, and abusive talk, and contentions, and revenges, And blood, and passions, and envy, and hatred, And whatsoever things are like these shall go into condemnation when they are removed.

5For it is these very things which have filled this world with evils, And on account of these the life of man has been greatly troubled.

6And wild beasts shall come from the forest and minister unto men And asps and dragons shall come forth from their holes to submit themselves to a little child.

7And women shall no longer then have pain when they bear, Nor shall they suffer torment when they yield the fruit of the womb.
