Wisdom 6:8

8 But a stern judgment will fall upon the ruthless.

Wisdom 6:8 In-Context

6 Those who aren't important may be pardoned out of compassion, but the powerful will be powerfully examined.
7 The ruler of all won't back down from anyone. He won't show any special consideration to someone whom others consider great. The ruler of all made both the small and the great, and he regards them all in the same way.
8 But a stern judgment will fall upon the ruthless.
9 Yes, I'm speaking to you who rule with unbridled might so that you may learn wisdom and avoid going astray.
10 Those who have treasured holy things in a holy way will themselves be made holy. Those who have been instructed in holy things will be able to offer a defense for what they have done.
