Wisdom 5:14DRA

Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 14 of 24

"Such things as these the sinners said in hell:"
Wisdom 5:14

In context

12Or as when an arrow is shot at a mark, the divided air presently cometh together again, so that the passage thereof is not known:

13So we also being born, forthwith ceased to be: and have been able to shew no mark of virtue: but are consumed in our wickedness.

14Such things as these the sinners said in hell:

15For the hope of the wicked is as dust, which is blown away with the wind, and as a thin froth which is dispersed by the storm: and a smoke that is scattered abroad by the wind: and as the remembrance of a guest of one day that passeth by.

16But the just shall live for evermore: and their reward is with the Lord, and the care of them with the most High.
