2 Esdras 7:123

123 What good is it that paradise will be revealed, whose fruit remains uncorrupted, in which there is plenty and healing,

2 Esdras 7:123 In-Context

121 What good is it that safe and healthy dwelling places are reserved, but we have behaved badly?
122 What good is it that the glory of the Most High will protect those who have conducted themselves decently, but we have conducted ourselves indecently?
123 What good is it that paradise will be revealed, whose fruit remains uncorrupted, in which there is plenty and healing,
124 but we won't enter it, for we have visited unseemly places?
125 What good is it that the faces of those who practiced abstinence will shine brighter than stars when our faces are blacker than darkness?
