Wisdom 10:3-5

Revised Standard Version

³But when an unrighteous man departed from her in his anger,
he perished because in rage he slew his brother.
⁴When the earth was flooded because of him, wisdom again saved it,
steering the righteous man by a paltry piece of wood.

⁵Wisdom^[a] also, when the nations in wicked agreement had been confounded,
recognized the righteous man and preserved him blameless before God,
and kept him strong in the face of his compassion for his child.
