2 Esdras 15:23

23 The fire is gone forth from His wrath, and hath consumed the foundations of the earth, and the sinners like the straw that is kindled.

2 Esdras 15:23 In-Context

21 As they do yet this day unto My chosen, so will I do also and recompense in their bosom." Thus saith the Lord God:
22 "My right hand shall not spare the sinners, and My sword shall not cease over them that shed innocent blood upon the earth.
23 The fire is gone forth from His wrath, and hath consumed the foundations of the earth, and the sinners like the straw that is kindled.
24 Woe to them that sin and keep not My commandments!" saith the Lord.
25 "I will not spare them. Go your way, ye children, from the power; defile not My sanctuary."
