Wisdom 10:3-5

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³ But when the unjust went away from her in his anger, he perished by the fury wherewith he murdered his brother.

⁴ For whose cause, when water destroyed the earth, wisdom healed it again, directing the course of the just by contemptible wood.

⁵ Moreover when the nations had conspired together to consent to wickedness, she knew the just, and preserved him without blame to God, and kept him strong against the compassion for his son.
