57 David, for his loyalty,received as a heritage a throne of eternal kingship.
58 Elijah, for his burning zeal for the law,was taken up to heaven.
59 Hananiah, Azariah and Mishael, for their faith,were saved from the fire.
60 Daniel, for his innocence,was delivered from the mouths of lions.
61 And so, consider this from generation to generation,that none who hope in Heaven shall fail in strength.
62 Do not fear the words of sinners,for their glory ends in corruption and worms.
63 Today exalted, tomorrow not to be found,they have returned to dust,their schemes have perished.
