2 Esdras 2:25-27

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

²⁵ ‘Good nurse, nourish your children; strengthen their feet. ²⁶ Not one of the servants^[a] whom I have given you will perish, for I will require them from among your number. ²⁷ Do not be anxious, for when the day of tribulation and anguish comes, others shall weep and be sorrowful, but you shall rejoice and have abundance.
