Wisdom 3:16-19

Common English Bible

¹⁶ The children of adulterers, however, will come to nothing. The seed of people who have sex with others in violation of the Law will dry up. ¹⁷ Even if they live to old age, their lives won’t amount to anything. In their old age they will have no honor. ¹⁸ If they die young, they will have no hope or comfort on Judgment Day. ¹⁹ The family line of those who don’t do what is right will come to a bad end.
