Wisdom of Solomon 16:11-13
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
11 To remind them of your oracles they were bitten
and then were quickly delivered,
so that they would not fall into deep forgetfulness
and become unresponsive[a] to your kindness.(A)
12 For neither herb nor poultice cured them,
but it was your word, O Lord, that heals all people.(B)
13 For you have power over life and death;
you lead mortals down to the gates of Hades and back again.(C)
