New Testament

Wisdom 6:7-11 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

7. For, to the little, great mercy is granted, but the powerful will endure powerful torment.

8. For the Lord will not exempt anyone's character, nor will he stand in awe of anyone's greatness, because he himself made the little and the great, and he is equally concerned for everyone.

9. But a powerful torture pursues the powerful.

10. Therefore, O kings, these, my words, are for you, so that you may learn wisdom and not perish.

11. For those who have justly preserved justice will be justified, and those who have learned these things will find what to answer.
