2 Esdras 8:53-55

Common English Bible

⁵³ The root of evil^[a] is sealed off from you, weakness is abolished from you, and death is hidden; the netherworld^[b] and decay have fled into oblivion. ⁵⁴ Sorrows have passed, and the treasure of immortality is displayed to the end. ⁵⁵ Therefore, don’t continue to ask about the great many who perish.
