2 Esdras 14:45-48 World English Bible (WEB)

45. And it came to pass, when the forty days were fulfilled, that the Most High spoke to me, saying, The first that you have written publish openly, and let the worthy and unworthy read it:

46. but keep the seventy last, that you may deliver them to such as be wise among your people:

47. for in them is the spring of understanding, the fountain of wisdom, and the stream of knowledge.

48. And I did so.
