Wisdom 6:8 In-Context

6 Common people may be mercifully forgiven for their wrongs, but those in power will face a severe judgment.

7 The Lord of all is not afraid of anyone, no matter how great they are. He himself made everyone, great and common alike, and he provides for all equally,

8 but he will judge the conduct of rulers more strictly.

9 It is for you, mighty kings, that I write these words, so that you may know how to act wisely and avoid mistakes.

10 These are holy matters, and if you treat them in a holy manner, you yourselves will be considered holy. If you have learned this lesson, you will be able to defend yourselves at the Judgment.
