2 Esdras 2:12-14

¹² The tree of life shall give them fragrant perfume, and they shall neither toil nor become weary. ¹³ Ask and you will receive; pray that your days may be few, that they may be shortened. The kingdom is already prepared for you; watch! ¹⁴ Call, O call heaven and earth to witness, for I left out evil and created good, because I live, says the Lord.
