Wisdom 5:5-7

Common English Bible

⁵ How is it that he’s now counted among God’s children? How is it that he’s now considered one of the saints?

⁶ Clearly we were the ones who missed the way to truth. The light that would have shown us the right thing to do hasn’t shone for us. That sun didn’t rise upon us. ⁷ We got entangled in lawlessness and destruction. We wandered through desolate wildernesses. We didn’t know the Lord’s way.
