Wisdom 18:9
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
9 For in secret the holy children of the good were offering sacrifice
and carried out with one mind the divine institution,[a]
So that your holy ones should share alike the same blessings and dangers,
once they had sung the ancestral hymns of praise.(A)
