Wisdom 4:1-3
Wycliffe Bible
4 How fair is a chaste generation with clearness [or clarity]; for the mind thereof is undeadly, for it is known, both with God, and with men.
2 When it is present, they (pur)sue it; and they desire it, when it hath led out itself, and it over-coming getteth by victory the meed of battles undefouled, and is crowned without end. [When present it is, they follow; and desire it, when they have led out themselves, and it crowned into without end beareth the victory, taking by victory the meed of the undefouled strives.]
3 But the many-fold (en)gendered multitude of wicked men shall not be profitable; and (as) plantings of adultery they shall not give deep roots, neither shall set stable steadfastness. [Forsooth the many-fold (be)gotten multitude of unpious men shall not be profitable; and adulterous plantings shall not give high roots, nor stable steadfastness set.]
