Wisdom of Solomon 16:16 Context
14A man indeed killeth through his malice: and the spirit when it is gone foorth returneth not; neither the soule receiued vp, commeth againe. 15But it is not possible to escape thine hand. 16For the vngodly that denied to know thee, were scourged by the strength of thine arme: with strange raines, hailes, and showers were they persecuted, that they could not auoyd, and through fire were they consumed. 17For, which is most to be wondered at, the fire had more force in the water that quencheth all things: for the world fighteth for the righteous. 18For sometimes the flame was mitigated, that it might not burne vp the beasts that were sent against the vngodly: but themselues might see and perceiue that they were persecuted with the iudgement of God.
