Wisdom 1:13-16
Good News Translation

There is no deadly poison in them. No, death does not rule this world, 15 for God's justice does not die.
16 (B)Ungodly people have brought death on themselves by the things they have said and done. They yearn for death as if it were a lover. They have gone into partnership with death, and it is just what they deserve.
