Wisdom 10:3-5
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
3 But when an unrighteous man[a] withdrew from her in his anger,
he perished through his fratricidal wrath.(A)
4 When on his account the earth was flooded, Wisdom again saved it,
piloting the righteous man[b] on frailest wood.(B)
5 She, when the nations were sunk in universal wickedness,
knew the righteous man,[c] kept him blameless before God,
and preserved him resolute against pity for his child.(C)
