Wisdom 4:16

16 Thus the righteous that is dead shall condemn the ungodly who are living; and youth that is soon perfected, the many years and old age of the unrighteous.

Wisdom 4:16 In-Context

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.

16 Thus the righteous that is dead shall condemn the ungodly who are living; and youth that is soon perfected, the many years and old age of the unrighteous.

17 For they shall see the end of the wise, and shall not understand what God in His counsel hath decreed for him, and to what end the Lord hath set him in safety.

18 They shall see him and despise him, but God shall laugh them to scorn; and they shall hereafter be a vile carcass, and a reproach among the dead for evermore.
