Wisdom 18:1-3
Wycliffe Bible
18 But full great light there was to thine holy servants, and soothly (the) enemies heard the voice of them, but they saw not the figure, either shape; and for also they suffered not by the same things, they magnified thee. [To thy saints forsooth was most light, and the voice forsooth of these the enemies heard, but the figure they saw not; and for not and they by the same things had suffered, they magnified thee.]
2 And for they were hurt before, they did thankings to thee, for they were not hurt; and that (a) difference should be betwixt them and (the) Egyptians, they asked thee, God. [And for before hurt they were, for they were not hurt, graces they did to thee; and that there were difference, thee, God, they asked.]
3 For which thing they had a burning pillar of fire, the leader of (the) unknown way; and thou gavest the sun, without hurting of good harbour.
