2 Esdras 9:11

11 and as many as scorned my law while they still had freedom, and did not understand but despised it while an opportunity of repentance was still open to them,

2 Esdras 9:11 In-Context

9 Then those who have now abused my ways shall be amazed, and those who have rejected them with contempt shall live in torments.

10 For as many as did not acknowledge me in their lifetime, though they received my benefits,

11 and as many as scorned my law while they still had freedom, and did not understand but despised it while an opportunity of repentance was still open to them,

12 these must in torment acknowledge it after death.

13 Therefore, do not continue to be curious about how the ungodly will be punished; but inquire how the righteous will be saved, those to whom the age belongs and for whose sake the age was made."
