Wisdom 3:1 In-Context

1 But the souls of the righteous are in the hand of God, and there shall no torment touch them.

2 In the sight of the unwise they seemed to die; and their departure is taken for misery,

3 and their going from us to be utter destruction; but they are in peace.

4 For though they be punished in the sight of men, yet is their hope full of immortality.

5 And having been a little chastised, they shall be greatly rewarded; for God proved them, and found them worthy for Himself.
