Wisdom 16:14

Listen to Wisdom 16:14
14 A man in his wickedness kills another, but he cannot bring back the departed spirit, nor set free the imprisoned soul.

Wisdom 16:14 In-Context

12 For neither herb nor poultice cured them, but it was thy word, O Lord, which heals all men.
13 For thou hast power over life and death; thou dost lead men down to the gates of Hades and back again.
14 A man in his wickedness kills another, but he cannot bring back the departed spirit, nor set free the imprisoned soul.
15 To escape from thy hand is impossible;
16 for the ungodly, refusing to know thee, were scourged by the strength of thy arm, pursued by unusual rains and hail and relentless storms, and utterly consumed by fire.
