Wisdom 3:7-9

Good News Translation

⁷ When God comes to reward the righteous, they will blaze out against the wicked like fire in dry straw. ⁸ They will rule over nations and peoples, and the Lord will be their king forever. ⁹ Those who have put their trust in God will come to understand the truth of his ways. Those who have been faithful will live with him in his love, for he is kind and merciful to the ones whom he has chosen.^[a]
