2 Esdras 10:24-26

Common English Bible

²⁴ Shake off your great sadness then, and put away the multitude of your sorrows so that the mighty one may show you favor and the Most High may give you peace and rest from your labors.”

²⁵ While I was speaking to her, look! Suddenly her face shone brightly and her countenance became a flashing splendor. I became afraid of her, and I wondered what was happening. ²⁶ Without warning she let out a noise, a great voice full of fear, so that the earth itself shook with the sound.
