Wisdom 12:11DRA

Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 11 of 27

"For it was a cursed seed from the beginning: neither didst thou for fear of any one give pardon to their sins."
Wisdom 12:11

In context

9Not that thou wast unable to bring the wicked under the just by war, or by cruel beasts, or with one rough word to destroy them at once:

10But executing thy judgments by degrees thou gavest them place of repentance, not being ignorant that they were a wicked generation, and their malice natural, and that their thought could never be changed.

11For it was a cursed seed from the beginning: neither didst thou for fear of any one give pardon to their sins.

12For who shall say to thee: What hast thou done? or who shall withstand thy judgment? or who shall come before thee to be a revenger of wicked men? or who shall accuse thee, if the nations perish, which thou hast made?

13For there is no other God but thou, who hast care of all, that thou shouldst shew that thou dost not give judgment unjustly.
