2 Esdras 7:65
King James VersionSource notes
“And that he is bountiful, for he is ready to give where it needeth;”
Context
62I answered then, and said, I know, Lord, that the most High is called merciful, in that he hath mercy upon them which are not yet come into the world,
63And upon those also that turn to his law;
64And that he is patient, and long suffereth those that have sinned, as his creatures;
65And that he is bountiful, for he is ready to give where it needeth;
66And that he is of great mercy, for he multiplieth more and more mercies to them that are present, and that are past, and also to them which are to come.
67For if he shall not multiply his mercies, the world would not continue with them that inherit therein.
68And he pardoneth; for if he did not so of his goodness, that they which have committed iniquities might be eased of them, the ten thousandth part of men should not remain living.
