Wisdom 16:14

Listen to Wisdom 16:14
14 A wicked person may kill someone, but cannot bring the dead person back to life or rescue a soul imprisoned in the world of the dead.

Wisdom 16:14 In-Context

12 No medicine or ointment cured them. They were restored to health by your word, O Lord, the word which heals all humanity.
13 You have power over life and death; you can bring a person to the brink of death and back again.
14 A wicked person may kill someone, but cannot bring the dead person back to life or rescue a soul imprisoned in the world of the dead.
15 No one can possibly escape from you.
16 Look at those ungodly people: they refused to recognize you as God, so you punished them with your great power. They were overtaken by terrible storms of rain and hail and were completely destroyed by fire.
