The Wisdom of Solomon 10:13-14


[13] When a righteous man was sold, wisdom did not desert him,
but delivered him from sin.
She descended with him into the dungeon,
[14] and when he was in prison she did not leave him,
until she brought him the scepter of a kingdom
and authority over his masters.
Those who accused him she showed to be false,
and she gave him everlasting honor.
