2 Esdras 8:51

51 But think of yourself and ask about the glory of those like you.

2 Esdras 8:51 In-Context

49 because you have humbled yourself, as befits you, and didn't count yourself among the righteous so that you may be glorified the more.

50 Many miseries will afflict those who inhabit the world in the last times because they will walk in great pride.

51 But think of yourself and ask about the glory of those like you.

52 For you, paradise is opened, the tree of life is planted, the future time is prepared, abundance is made ready, the city is built, rest is appointed, goodness is perfected, and wisdom is perfected in advance.

53 The root of evil is sealed off from you, weakness is abolished from you, and death is hidden; the netherworld and decay have fled into oblivion.
