2 Esdras 8:29-31
Revised Standard Version
29 Let it not be thy will to destroy those who have had the ways of cattle; but regard those who have gloriously taught thy law.[a] 30 Be not angry with those who are deemed worse than beasts; but love those who have always put their trust in thy glory. 31 For we and our fathers have passed our lives in ways that bring death;[b] but thou, because of us sinners, are called merciful.
