2 Esdras 10:54-56

Revised Standard Version

⁵⁴ for no work of man’s building could endure in a place where the city of the Most High was to be revealed.

⁵⁵ “Therefore do not be afraid, and do not let your heart be terrified; but go in and see the splendor and vastness of the building, as far as it is possible for your eyes to see it, ⁵⁶ and afterward you will hear as much as your ears can hear.
