2 Esdras 4:25-27
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
25 But what will he do for his[a] name that is invoked over us? It is about these things that I have asked.’
26 He answered me and said, ‘If you are alive, you will see, and if you live long,[b] you will often marvel, because the age is hurrying swiftly to its end. 27 It will not be able to bring the things that have been promised to the righteous in their appointed times, because this age is full of sadness and infirmities.
