2 Esdras 9:14

14 I answered and said,

2 Esdras 9:14 In-Context

12 these must in torment acknowledge it after death.
13 Therefore, do not continue to be curious as to 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."
14 I answered and said,
15 "I said before, and I say now, and will say it again: there are more who perish than those who will be saved,
16 as a wave is greater than a drop of water."
