2 Esdras 8:30
29. Let it not be thy will to destroy them which have lived like beasts; but to look upon them that have clearly taught thy law.30. Take thou no indignation at them which are deemed worse than beasts; but love them that always put their trust in thy righteousness and glory.31. For we and our fathers do languish of such diseases: but because of us sinners thou shalt be called merciful.
