2 Esdras 4:33

33 I answered: "Where and when will these things be? Why are our years few and evil?"

2 Esdras 4:33 In-Context

31 Calculate for yourself how much godless fruit the grain of evil seed will have produced!
32 When the innumerable ears of grain are sown, how great a threshing floor will they begin to make!"
33 I answered: "Where and when will these things be? Why are our years few and evil?"
34 He answered: "Don't be in a greater hurry than the Most High. You hurry only for yourself, but the Most High on behalf of many.
35 Didn't the souls of the just in their resting places ask about these things, saying, ‘How long are we to remain here, and when will the harvest of our reward come?'
