Wisdom 4:14-16

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁴ For his soul pleased God: therefore he hastened to bring him out of the midst of iniquities: but the people see this, and understand not, nor lay up such things in their hearts:

¹⁵ That the grace of God, and his mercy is with his saints, and that he hath respect to his chosen.

¹⁶ But the just that is dead, condemneth the wicked that are living, and youth soon ended, the long life of the unjust.
