2 Esdras 14:34

34 Therefore if so be that ye will subdue your own understanding and reform your hearts, ye shall be kept alive, and after death ye shall obtain mercy.

2 Esdras 14:34 In-Context

32 And forasmuch as He is a righteous judge, He took from you in time the thing that He had given you.
33 And now are ye here, and your brethren among you.
34 Therefore if so be that ye will subdue your own understanding and reform your hearts, ye shall be kept alive, and after death ye shall obtain mercy.
35 For after death shall the Judgment come, when we shall live again; and then shall the names of the righteous be manifest, and the works of the ungodly shall be declared.
36 Let no man therefore come unto me now, nor seek after me these forty days."
