Wisdom 19:3-5

New Catholic Bible

³ For while they were still conducting their funeral rites
    and mourning at the tombs of their dead,
they made another rash decision
    and pursued as fugitives
    those whom they had entreated to leave and had sent away.
⁴ For the fate they deserved urged them on to this decision
    and made them forget what had already befallen them,
so that they might experience the full range of torments required to complete their punishment,
⁵     and so that your people might experience a glorious^[a] journey
    while their enemies would meet an unusual death.
