II Baruch 41

Syriac Apocalypse

And I answered and said: "To whom will these things be, or how many (will they be)? or who will be worthy to live at that time?

2For I will speak before Thee everything that I think, and I will ask of Thee regarding those things which I meditate.

3For lo! I see many of Thy people who have withdrawn from Thy covenant, and cast from them the yoke of Thy law.

4But others again I have seen who have forsaken their vanity, and fled for refuge beneath Thy wings.

5What therefore will be to them? or how will the last time receive them?

6Or perhaps the time of these will assuredly be weighed, and as the beam inclines will they be judged accordingly?"
