” Compunctious assaults are not only moot, but quite telling by origin of their mockery.” – Christopher Vaughn Messer 

The Bible reference is from Wis 4:18:

Wisdom of Solomon 4:18

“They shal see him and despise him, but God shall laugh them to scorne, and they shal hereafter be a vile carkeis, and a reproch among the dead for euermore.”
