Wisdom 12:23-25

Good News Translation

The Punishment of the Egyptians

²³ And so you tormented those who were foolish enough to live wickedly—you tormented them with the horrible things they worshiped. ²⁴ They had wandered far away from the truth and worshiped the most disgusting and horrible animals. They were deceived as easily as little children. ²⁵ And so you punished them for their stupidity, and your judgment made them look like fools.
