2 Esdras 12:48

48 And I haven't left you or abandoned you. I came here to pray for Jerusalem in her time of trouble and to ask mercy for her and for your Temple, now in disgrace.

2 Esdras 12:48 In-Context

46 "Be brave, Israel, put away your sorrow.

47 God Most High will keep you in mind; the Almighty One has not forgotten you in all your troubles.

48 And I haven't left you or abandoned you. I came here to pray for Jerusalem in her time of trouble and to ask mercy for her and for your Temple, now in disgrace.

49 Please return to your homes, all of you. I will come back to you in a few days."

50 So they left me and went back to the city.
