2 Esdras 16:75 Context

⁷²For they shall waste and take away their goods, and cast them out of their houses. ⁷³Then shall they be known, who are my chosen; and they shall be tried as the gold in the fire. ⁷⁴Hear, O ye my beloved, saith the Lord: behold, the days of trouble are at hand, but I will deliver you from the same. ⁷⁵Be ye not afraid neither doubt; for God is your guide, ⁷⁶And the guide of them who keep my commandments and precepts, saith the Lord God: let not your sins weigh you down, and let not your iniquities lift up themselves. ⁷⁷Woe be unto them that are bound with their sins, and covered with their iniquities like as a field is covered over with bushes, and the path thereof covered with thorns, that no man may travel through! ⁷⁸It is left undressed, and is cast into the fire to be consumed therewith.
