2 Esdras 15:26

26 For God knows all who sin against him; therefore he will hand them over to death and slaughter.

2 Esdras 15:26 In-Context

24 Alas for those who sin and do not observe my commandments, says the Lord;
25 I will not spare them. Depart, you faithless children! Do not pollute my sanctuary.
26 For God knows all who sin against him; therefore he will hand them over to death and slaughter.
27 Already calamities have come upon the whole earth, and you shall remain in them; God will not deliver you, because you have sinned against him.
28 What a terrifying sight, appearing from the east!
