Wisdom 19:20DRA
Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 20 of 20
"On the other side, the flames wasted not the flesh of corruptible animals walking therein, neither did they melt that good food, which was apt to melt as ice. For in all things thou didst magnify thy people, O Lord, and didst honour them, and didst not despise them, but didst assist them at all times, and in every place."
In context
18For the things of the land were turned into things of the water: and the things before swam in the water passed upon the land.
19The fire had power in water above its own virtue, and the water forgot its quenching nature.
20On the other side, the flames wasted not the flesh of corruptible animals walking therein, neither did they melt that good food, which was apt to melt as ice. For in all things thou didst magnify thy people, O Lord, and didst honour them, and didst not despise them, but didst assist them at all times, and in every place.
