2 Esdras 4:25-27
Revised Standard Version
25 But what will he do for his name, by which we are called? 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,[a] you will often marvel, because the age is hastening swiftly to its end. 27 For 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.
