Wisdom 16:5-7
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
5 For when the terrible rage of wild animals came upon your people[a]
and they were being destroyed by the bites of writhing serpents,
your wrath did not continue to the end;
6 they were troubled for a little while as a warning,
and received a symbol of deliverance to remind them of your law’s command.
7 For the one who turned toward it was saved, not by the thing that was beheld,
but by you, the Savior of all.
