Wisdom 16:4-6
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
4 For it was necessary that upon those oppressors inexorable want should come,
while to these it was merely shown how their enemies were being tormented.
5 For when the terrible rage of wild beasts came upon thy people[a]
and they were being destroyed by the bites of writhing serpents,
thy wrath did not continue to the end;
6 they were troubled for a little while as a warning,
and received a token of deliverance to remind them of thy law’s command.
