2 Esdras 7:82

82 The second reason—because they can't now effectively change their hearts and lives so that they might live.

2 Esdras 7:82 In-Context

80 these spirits don't go into their dwellings but will immediately wander about in torments. They will constantly grieve and be sorrowful for seven reasons:
81 The first reason—because they despised the Law of the Most High.
82 The second reason—because they can't now effectively change their hearts and lives so that they might live.
83 The third reason—because they will see the reward laid up for those who have believed the Most High's testimonies.
84 The fourth reason—because they will consider the torment laid up for themselves in the last days.
