2 Esdras 7:65

2 Esdras 7:65 Context

⁶²I answered then, and said, I know, Lord, that the most High is called merciful, in that he hath mercy upon them which are not yet come into the world, ⁶³And upon those also that turn to his law; ⁶⁴And that he is patient, and long suffereth those that have sinned, as his creatures; ⁶⁵And that he is bountiful, for he is ready to give where it needeth; ⁶⁶And that he is of great mercy, for he multiplieth more and more mercies to them that are present, and that are past, and also to them which are to come. ⁶⁷For if he shall not multiply his mercies, the world would not continue with them that inherit therein. ⁶⁸And he pardoneth; for if he did not so of his goodness, that they which have committed iniquities might be eased of them, the ten thousandth part of men should not remain living.
