2 Esdras 1:33-37 World English Bible (WEB)

33. Thus says the Lord Almighty, Your house is desolate, I will cast you out as the wind does stubble.

34. And your children shall not be fruitful; for they have neglected my commandment to you, and done that which is evil before me.

35. Your houses will I give to a people that shall come; which not having heard of me yet believe me; they to whom I have showed no signs shall do that which I have commanded.

36. They have seen no prophets, yet they shall call their former estate to remembrance.

37. I take to witness the grace of the people that shall come, whose little ones rejoice with gladness: and though they see me not with bodily eyes, yet in spirit they shall believe the thing that I say.
