The book of The Apocalypse of Ezra Chapter 3 Erza ask why Babylon took a sinful Israel

In the thirtieth year after the ruin of the city I was in Babylon, and laid troubled upon my bed, and my thoughts came up over my heart:
For I saw the desolation of Sion, and the wealth of them in Babylon.
And my spirit was sore moved, so that I began to speak words full of fear to the most High, and said,
O Lord, who rule, thou spoke at the beginning, when You made the earth, and that thyself alone, and command your people,
You made Adam and gave him life and a soul.
You placed him in Eden which You have planted, after making the world.
But he broke Your commandment, and death was appointed to all.
His decedents walked after their own will and invited the fallen into their homes.
Then You destroyed the known world at the time with a great flood.
And it became known to them as death was to Adam the flood was unto them.
But You saved Noah and his family, because Noah was righteous.
But as they multiplied they forgot Your ways once again.
But among them Abraham did not forget Your ways and You called him Your friend.
You loved Abraham and showed him Your mighty ways.
You made an everlasting covenant with him, that You will never forsake his seed.
Unto him you gave Isaac, unto whom you gave Jacob and Esau. You chose Jacob whom You made into a great multitude, unto yourself.
You brought his seed out of Egypt to mount Sinai.
You bowed the heavens, the world did not stand still, but You moved it, You made the depts. To tremble, and troubled the men of that age.
Your glory came in fire, earthquakes, wind and cold weather, so that you may give the law to the seed of Jacob and the generations to follow.
But yet you did not force them to keep your law, which if they had followed it would have brought forth fruit.
As You did not force Adam to keep you command and everlasting life, and because of his transgression all who was born of him sinned.
Because You did not remove the sinful nature of man, man keeps on turning to evil as generations pass.
As time passed away, You raised up David.
You commanded him to build a city unto thee.
But now You have forsaken the city and gave it to Babylon.
Because all these generations did as Adam did, and forsaken Your Commandments.
So You gave Your city to the enemy.
Why? Are the deeds of Babylon better than those of Israel? Is that why Sion is under their domain?
But yet I have seen so many evil doers, my heart has failed me.
For I have seen these sinners and evil doers prosper, and allow them to destroy Your people.
Then how are these better than the ones of Sion?
Or are there another people that knows You besides Israel? Or what generation had believed upon You as Jacob?
Yet Israel has no reward, while Babylon, whom does not even think of your commandments are overflowing with wealth.
Weight Israel’s sins in a balance against all whom dwell on earth, are Your name not only found in Israel?
Or when was it that they which dwell upon the earth have not sinned in Your sight? or what people have so kept Your commandments?
You shall only find this in Israel whom by name kept Your precepts, and no other nation.
