26 O look not upon the sins of thy people, but at those who have served thee in truth.

2 Esdras 8:26 In-Context

24 hear, O Lord, the prayer of thy servant, and give ear to the petition of thy creature; attend to my words.

25 For as long as I live I will speak, and as long as I have understanding I will answer.

26 O look not upon the sins of thy people, but at those who have served thee in truth.

27 Regard not the endeavors of those who act wickedly, but the endeavors of those who have kept thy covenants amid afflictions.

28 Think not on those who have lived wickedly in thy sight; but remember those who have willingly acknowledged that thou art to be feared.
