"For whereas wickedness is fearful, it beareth witness of its condemnation: for a troubled conscience always forecasteth grievous things."
Wisdom 17:10

En contexte

8For they who promised to drive away fears and troubles from a sick soul, were sick themselves of a fear worthy to be laughed at.

9For though no terrible thing disturbed them: yet being scared with the passing by of beasts, and hissing of serpents, they died for fear: and denying that they saw the air, which could by no means be avoided.

10For whereas wickedness is fearful, it beareth witness of its condemnation: for a troubled conscience always forecasteth grievous things.

11For fear is nothing else but a yielding up of the succours from thought.

12And while there is less expectation from within, the greater doth it count the ignorance of that cause which bringeth the torment.
