Wisdom 12:23

23 Therefore those who in folly of life lived unrighteously thou didst torment through their own abominations.

Wisdom 12:23 In-Context

21 with what strictness thou hast judged thy sons, to whose fathers thou gavest oaths and covenants full of good promises!

22 So while chastening us thou scourgest our enemies ten thousand times more, so that we may meditate upon thy goodness when we judge, and when we are judged we may expect mercy.

23 Therefore those who in folly of life lived unrighteously thou didst torment through their own abominations.

24 For they went far astray on the paths of error, accepting as gods those animals which even their enemies despised; they were deceived like foolish babes.

25 Therefore, as to thoughtless children, thou didst send thy judgment to mock them.
