Wisdom 11:18-20
Revised Standard Version
Wisdom 11:18-20
Revised Standard Version
18 or newly created unknown beasts full of rage,
or such as breathe out fiery breath,
or belch forth a thick pall of smoke,
or flash terrible sparks from their eyes;
19 not only could their damage exterminate men,[a]
but the mere sight of them could kill by fright.
20 Even apart from these, men[b] could fall at a single breath
when pursued by justice
and scattered by the breath of thy power.
But thou hast arranged all things by measure and number and weight.
