Wisdom 4:13-15

Wycliffe Bible

¹³ He was ended in short time, and [ful]filled many times;

¹⁴ for why his soul was pleasant to God; for this thing God hast(en)ed to lead him out from the midst of wickednesses; [pleased forsooth to God was the soul of him; for that he went to bring him out from the middle of shrewdness (or depravity);]

¹⁵ but peoples saw and understood not, neither setted [or putted] such things in their hearts or entrails. For the grace and mercy of God is on (or with) his saints, and (the) beholding [or (the) respect] of God is on (or for) his chosen men.
