Wisdom 11:14-16

Wycliffe Bible

¹⁴ For at the end of the befalling, they worshipped (or honoured) him, whom they scorned (had) cast out in shrewd (or depraved) putting forth; and thou didest not in like manner to just men. [Whom forsooth in a shrewd (or depraved) putting out they scorned cast afar, and into the end of that that fell, they marvelled; not (in) like manner to rightwise men doing.]

¹⁵ Forsooth for unwise thoughts the wickednesses of them were punished; for some men erring worshipped dumb serpents [or adders], and superfluous beasts, thou sentest into them a multitude of dumb beasts, into vengeance;

¹⁶ (so) that they should know, that by what things a man sinneth, he is tormented also by these things. [that they should know, for by those things that a man sinneth, by those things also he shall be tormented.]
