2 Esdras 7:54

2 Esdras 7:54 Context

⁵²And that the glory of the most high is kept to defend them which haue led a wary life, whereas we haue walked in the most wicked wayes of all? ⁵³And that there should be shewed a paradise whose fruite endureth for euer, wherein is securitie and medicine, sith we shall not enter into it? ⁵⁴For we haue walked in vnpleasant places. ⁵⁵And that the faces of them which haue vsed abstinence, shall shine aboue the starres, whereas our faces shall bee blacker then darkenesse? ⁵⁶For while we liued and committed iniquitie, we considered not that we should begin to suffer for it after death.
