5 For the holy spirit of discipline[a] shuns deceit,

and is ashamed at the approach of injustice.
Footnotes
- Wisdom 1:5 Holy spirit of discipline: Wisdom (called “discipline” here) was regarded as dispensed by a “holy spirit” (see Ps 51:13; Isa 63:10-11); the whole phrase seems to indicate the power of God that directs the life of human beings and of the universe. The reference is ultimately to the work of the Holy Spirit (see Jn 14:26).
