Wisdom 12:26-27

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁶ But those who have not heeded the warning of mild rebukes
will experience the deserved judgment of God.
²⁷ For when in their suffering they became incensed
at those creatures that they had thought to be gods, being punished by means of them,
they saw and recognized as the true God the one whom they had before refused to know.
Therefore the utmost condemnation came upon them.
