Wisdom 6:6

6 For the lowliest man may be pardoned in mercy, but mighty men will be mightily tested.

Wisdom 6:6 In-Context

4 Because as servants of his kingdom you did not rule rightly, nor keep the law, nor walk according to the purpose of God,

5 he will come upon you terribly and swiftly, because severe judgment falls on those in high places.

6 For the lowliest man may be pardoned in mercy, but mighty men will be mightily tested.

7 For the Lord of all will not stand in awe of any one, nor show deference to greatness; because he himself made both small and great, and he takes thought for all alike.

8 But a strict inquiry is in store for the mighty.
