2 Esdras 2:11

11 Moreover, I will take back to myself their glory, and will give to these others the everlasting habitations, which I had prepared for Israel.

2 Esdras 2:11 In-Context

9 whose land lies in lumps of pitch and heaps of ashes. That is what I will do to those who have not listened to me, says the Lord Almighty."

10 Thus says the Lord to Ezra: "Tell my people that I will give them the kingdom of Jerusalem, which I was going to give to Israel.

11 Moreover, I will take back to myself their glory, and will give to these others the everlasting habitations, which I had prepared for Israel.

12 The tree of life shall give them fragrant perfume, and they shall neither toil nor become weary.

13 Go and you will receive; pray that your days may be few, that they may be shortened. The kingdom is already prepared for you; be on the watch!
