2 Esdras 14:45-47

Common English Bible

⁴⁵ Then when the forty days were completed, the Most High said to me, “Make public the ones you wrote first so that the worthy and unworthy may read them. ⁴⁶ But keep the last seventy so that you may transmit them to the wise among your people. ⁴⁷ In these are the fountains of understanding, the source of wisdom, and the river of knowledge.”
