Wisdom 11:5

5 When your people were in need, they were blessed with the very things that you used to punish their enemies.

Wisdom 11:5 In-Context

3 They opposed those who fought against them and defended themselves from their enemies.
4 They thirsted and cried out to you. You gave them water from a sharp rock, and their thirst was quenched by liquid from that hard stone.
5 When your people were in need, they were blessed with the very things that you used to punish their enemies.
6 So instead of a source of fresh water, your enemies found their own flowing river to be polluted with blood and gore. It was a judgment on those who killed their own children.
7 But you gave your people water in greater abundance than they could possibly imagine.
