2 Esdras 4:33-35
Revised Standard Version

Why are our years few and evil?” 34 He answered me and said, “You do not hasten faster than the Most High, for your haste is for yourself,[b] but the Highest hastens on behalf of many. 35 Did not the souls of the righteous in their chambers ask about these matters, saying, ‘How long are we to remain here?[c] And when will come the harvest of our reward?’
