1* Then shall the righteous one with great boldness confront
his oppressors who set at nought his labors.
2Seeing this, the wicked shall be shaken with dreadful fear,
and be amazed at the unexpected salvation.
3They shall say among themselves, rueful
and groaning through anguish of spirit:
“This is the one whom once we held as a laughingstock

His life we accounted madness,
and death dishonored.
5See how he is accounted among the heavenly beings;*
how his lot is with the holy ones
and be amazed at the unexpected salvation.
