Wisdom 5:5

3 Then they will regret what they did, and groaning in anguish they will say to each other:

4 "This is the one we made fun of. We thought he was a joke. What fools we were! We thought he was crazy to live the way he did, and when he died, we didn't honor him.

5 And now here he is, one of God's own children, with a place of his own among God's people.

6 We were the ones who wandered off the right road. We never lived in the light of righteousness; we never caught the first glimmer of its light.

7 All our lives we wandered across unmarked deserts, instead of following the road which the Lord wanted us to travel. And this lawlessness led us to ruin.
