Wisdom 18:8DRA

6For that night was known before by our fathers, that assuredly knowing what oaths they had trusted to, they might be of better courage.

7So thy people received the salvation of the just, and destruction of the unjust.

8For as thou didst punish the adversaries: so thou didst also encourage and glorify us.

9For the just children of good men were offering sacrifice secretly, and they unanimously ordered a law of justice: that the just should receive both good and evil alike, singing now the praises of the fathers.

10But on the other side there sounded an ill according cry of the enemies, and a lamentable mourning was heard for the children that were bewailed.
