Wisdom 1:11-13

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹¹ Keep yourselves therefore from murmuring, which profiteth nothing, and refrain your tongue from detraction, for an obscure speech shall not go for nought: and the mouth that belieth, killeth the soul.

¹² Seek not death in the error of your life, neither procure ye destruction by the works of your hands.

¹³ For God made not death, neither hath he pleasure in the destruction of the living.
