Wisdom 11:8

8 You showed your people through their own experience of thirst how you punished their opponents.

Wisdom 11:8 In-Context

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.
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.
