Wisdom 5:20-24 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

20. He will take equity for an invincible shield:

21. And he will sharpen his severe wrath for a spear, and the whole world shall fight with him against the unwise.

22. Then shafts of lightning shall go directly from the clouds, as from a bow well bent, they shall be shot out, and shall fly to the mark.

23. And thick hail shall be cast upon them from the stone casting wrath: the water of the sea shall rage against them, and the rivers shall run together in a terrible manner.

24. A mighty wind shall stand up against them, and as a whirlwind shall divide them: and their iniquity shall bring all the earth to a desert, and wickedness shall overthrow the thrones of the mighty.
