2 Esdras

"Then were the entrances of this world made narrow, full of sorrow and travail: they are but few and evil, full of perils, and very painful For the entrances of the elder world were wide and sure, and brought immortal fruit. If then they that live labour not to enter these strait and van things, they can never receive those that are laid up for them."

"You are not a better judge than the LORD, or wiser than the Most High!"

"When the Most High made the world and Adam and all who have come from him, he first prepared the judgment and the things that pertain to the judgment."

"For the world hath lost his youth, and the times begin to wax old."
