Wisdom 11:10

10 You disciplined your people in the same way that parents warn their children, but you examined and passed sentence on the ungodly like a strict ruler.

Wisdom 11:10 In-Context

8 You showed your people through their own experience of thirst how you punished their opponents.
9 When your people were put to the test, you disciplined them, but you also showed mercy. But they learned from this how harshly the ungodly were tormented when you judged them.
10 You disciplined your people in the same way that parents warn their children, but you examined and passed sentence on the ungodly like a strict ruler.
11 Whether they were distant or close by, you still afflicted them.
12 They groaned on account of their punishment and on account of the memory of the things that they had done.
