Wisdom 12:24-26

Wycliffe Bible

²⁴ For they erred full long in the way of error, and guessed to be gods these things that be superfluous in beasts, and lived by custom of young children unwittily. [Forsooth in the way of error longer they erred, esteeming gods those things that in beasts be over-vain, living by manner of unwise young children.]

²⁵ For this thing thou gavest doom, into scorn, as to children unwitty; [For that as to unwise children thou gave doom, into scorn;]

²⁶ but they, that were not amended by scornings and blamings, feeled the worthy doom of God. [who forsooth with reproves and blamings be not amended, the worthy doom of God be expert (or experienced), or feeled.]
