Wisdom Of Solomon 5:1-5 World English Bible (WEB)

1. Then shall the righteous man stand in great boldness Before the face of them that afflicted him, And them that make his labors of no account.

2. When they see it, they shall be troubled with terrible fear, And shall be amazed at the marvel of God’s salvation.

3. They shall say within themselves repenting, And for distress of spirit shall they groan, This was he whom aforetime we had in derision, And made a parable of reproach:

4. We fools accounted his life madness, And his end without honor:

5. How was he counted among sons of God? And how is his lot among saints?
