122 Or that the glory of the Most High will defend those who have led a pure life, but we have walked in the most wicked ways?

2 Esdras 7:122 In-Context

120 And what good is it that an everlasting hope has been promised to us, but we have miserably failed?
121 Or that safe and healthful habitations have been reserved for us, but we have lived wickedly?
122 Or that the glory of the Most High will defend those who have led a pure life, but we have walked in the most wicked ways?
123 Or that a paradise shall be revealed, whose fruit remains unspoiled and in which are abundance and healing, but we shall not enter it
124 because we have lived in perverse ways?[ah]
