2 Esdras 7:66-68
Revised Standard Version
66 For it is much better with them than with us; for they do not look for a judgment, nor do they know of any torment or salvation promised to them after death. 67 For what does it profit us that we shall be preserved alive but cruelly tormented? 68 For all who have been born are involved in iniquities, and are full of sins and burdened with transgressions.
