Wisdom 3:5

5 They were disciplined a little, but they will be rewarded with abundant good things, because God tested them and found that they deserve to be with him.

Wisdom 3:5 In-Context

3 Their leaving us seemed to be their destruction, but in reality they are at peace.

4 It may look to others as if they have been punished, but they have the hope of living forever.

5 They were disciplined a little, but they will be rewarded with abundant good things, because God tested them and found that they deserve to be with him.

6 He tested them like gold in the furnace; he accepted them like an entirely burned offering.

7 Then, when the time comes for judgment, the godly will burst forth and run about like fiery sparks among dry straw.
