Wisdom 5:15-17
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
15 But the righteous live forever,
and in the Lord is their recompense,
and the thought of them is with the Most High.(A)
16 Therefore shall they receive the splendid crown,
the beautiful diadem, from the hand of the Lord,
For he will shelter them with his right hand,
and protect them with his arm.(B)
17 He shall take his zeal for armor(C)
and arm creation to requite the enemy,
