Wisdom 4:13

13 He, being made perfect in a short time, fulfilled a long time.

Wisdom 4:13 In-Context

11 Yea, speedily was he taken away, lest that wickedness should alter his understanding, or deceit beguile his soul.
12 (For the bewitching of wickedness doth obscure things that are honest; and the wandering of concupiscence doth undermine the simple mind.)
13 He, being made perfect in a short time, fulfilled a long time.
14 For his soul pleased the Lord; therefore hastened He to take him away from among the wicked.
15 This the people saw and understood it not, neither laid they up this in their minds: that His grace and mercy is with His saints, and that He hath respect unto His chosen.
