2 Esdras 2:29-31

Revised Standard Version

²⁹ My hands will cover you, that your sons may not see Gehenna. ³⁰ Rejoice, O mother, with your sons, because I will deliver you, says the Lord. ³¹ Remember your sons that sleep, because I will bring them out of the hiding places of the earth, and will show mercy to them; for I am merciful, says the Lord Almighty.
