2 Esdras 3:30

Listen to 2 Esdras 3:30
30 when I saw how you tolerate sinners and do not punish them, how you protect your enemies and yet destroy your own people.

2 Esdras 3:30 In-Context

28 "I said to myself, "Perhaps Babylon has been allowed to conquer Jerusalem because the people who live there are better than we are.'
29 But when I got to Babylon, I saw more sins than I could count, and now for thirty years I have seen many sinners here. So I was perplexed
30 when I saw how you tolerate sinners and do not punish them, how you protect your enemies and yet destroy your own people.
31 You haven't given the faintest hint as to how these ways of yours can be changed. Surely Babylon is no better than Jerusalem.
32 No other nation, except Israel, has ever known you or accepted your covenants.
