Wisdom 5:15
Print
In contrast, those who do the right thing live forever. Their reward comes from the Lord. The Most High takes care of them.
For the hope of the wicked is as dust, which is blown away with the wind, and as a thin froth which is dispersed by the storm: and a smoke that is scattered abroad by the wind: and as the remembrance of a guest of one day that passeth by.
But the righteous live on forever. The Lord will reward them; the Most High will protect them.
But the righteous live forever, and in the Lord is their recompense, and the thought of them is with the Most High.
But the righteous live forever, and their recompense is with the Lord; the Most High provides for them.
But the righteous live for ever, and their reward is with the Lord; the Most High takes care of them.
But the righteous live for ever, and their reward is with the Lord; the Most High takes care of them.
But the righteous live forever, and their reward is with the Lord; the Most High takes care of them.
But the righteous live forever, and their reward is with the Lord; the Most High takes care of them.
But the righteous live for ever, and their reward is with the Lord; the Most High takes care of them.
But the righteous live for ever, and their reward is with the Lord; the Most High takes care of them.
But just men shall live without end, and the meed of them is with the Lord; and the thought of them is with the Highest. [Rightwise men forsooth into without end shall live, and with the Lord is the mead of them; and the thought of them with the Highest.]
