2 Esdras 10:44-46

Common English Bible

⁴⁴ This woman whom you saw is Zion, whom you now see built as a city. ⁴⁵ As for what she said to you, that she was infertile for thirty years, it is because there were three thousand^[a] years in the world when offerings weren’t yet made in her. ⁴⁶ After three thousand^[b] years, Solomon built the city and made offerings. That is when the infertile woman bore a son.
