Wisdom 11:10-14 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

10. For when they were tried, and chastised with mercy, they knew how the wicked were judged with wrath and tormented.

11. For thou didst admonish and try them as a father: but the others, as a severe king, thou didst examine and condemn.

12. For whether absent or present, they were tormented alike.

13. For a double affliction came upon them, and a groaning for the remembrance of things past.

14. For when they heard that by their punishments the others were benefited, they remembered the Lord, wondering at the end of what was come to pass.
