Wisdom 11:8-10

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁸ And whilst they were diminished for a manifest reproof of their murdering the infants, thou gavest to thine abundant water unlooked for:

⁹ shewing by the thirst that was then, how thou didst exalt thine, and didst kill their adversaries.

¹⁰ For when they were tried, and chastised with mercy, they knew how the wicked were judged with wrath and tormented.
