Wisdom 6:5-7

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁵ Because being ministers of his kingdom, you have not judged rightly, nor kept the law of justice, nor walked according to the will of God.

⁶ Horribly and speedily will he appear to you: for a most severe judgment shall be for them that bear rule.

⁷ For to him that is little, mercy is granted: but the mighty shall be mightily tormented.
