Wisdom 5:3-5

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

³ They will speak to one another in repentance,
and in anguish of spirit they will groan, and say,
⁴ ‘These are persons whom we once held in derision
and made a byword of reproach—fools that we were!
We thought that their lives were madness
and that their end was without honour.
⁵ Why have they been numbered among the children of God?
And why is their lot among the saints?
