Wisdom 14:7-9

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁷ For blessed is the wood, by which justice cometh.

⁸ But the idol that is made by hands, is cursed, as well it, as he that made it: he because he made it; and it because being frail it is called a god.

⁹ But to God the wicked and his wickedness are hateful alike.
