2 Esdras 3:13-15

Revised Standard Version

¹³ And when they were committing iniquity before thee, thou didst choose for thyself one of them, whose name was Abraham; ¹⁴ and thou didst love him, and to him only didst thou reveal the end of the times, secretly by night. ¹⁵ Thou didst make with him an everlasting covenant, and promise him that thou wouldst never forsake his descendants; and thou gavest to him Isaac, and to Isaac thou gavest Jacob and Esau.
