Wisdom 11:8-10

New Catholic Bible

⁸     showing them by their thirst at that time
    how you punished their enemies.
⁹ For when they themselves were tested, although they were only chastised in mercy,
    they comprehended the torments of the godless who had been judged in anger.
¹⁰ You tested the former, admonishing them like a father,
    but the latter you sifted as a stern king does in condemnation.
