2 Esdras 12:48

48 As for me, I have not forsaken you, neither have I departed from you, but have come into this place to pray for the desolation of Zion, and that I might seek mercy for the low estate of your sanctuary.

2 Esdras 12:48 In-Context

46 "Be of good comfort, O Israel; and be not heavy, thou house of Jacob.Œ
47 For the Highest hath you in remembrance, and the Mighty hath not forgotten you in temptation.
48 As for me, I have not forsaken you, neither have I departed from you, but have come into this place to pray for the desolation of Zion, and that I might seek mercy for the low estate of your sanctuary.
49 And now go your way home every man, and after these days will I come unto you."
50 So the people went their way into the city, as I commanded them.
