The Regrets of the Wicked - On that day someone righteous, full of confidence, will stand before those who oppressed him and made light of his labors.…
Wisdom, chapter 5
1* Then shall the righteous one with great boldness confront
his oppressors who set at nought his labors.
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
and as a type for mockery,
4fools that we were!
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.

jacob 6
2 And the day that he shall set his hand again the second time to recover his people, is the day, yea, even the last time, that the servants of the Lord shall go forth in his power, to nourish and prune his vineyard; and after that the end soon cometh.
3 And how blessed are they who have labored diligently in his vineyard; and how cursed are they who shall be cast out into their own place! And the world shall be burned with fire
