Wisdom 17:13-15

Wycliffe Bible

¹³ And the while less abiding is from within, it guesseth greater power of that cause, of which it giveth torment. [And while from within less is the abiding, the more it guesseth the power of his (or its) cause, of the which torment it giveth.]

¹⁴ Forsooth they, that came into a mighty night, and coming above (or upon) from (the) lowest things, and from (the) highest things, they sleeping the same sleep, [They forsooth, that verily the unmighty night, and sleeping the same sleep, overcoming from the lowest, and from the highest,]

¹⁵ were hurled sometime by dread of wonders against kind, sometime the souls failed by leading over; for why sudden dread and unhoped (for), came on them. [otherwhile they were stirred hither and thither, by the dread of the wonders, otherwhile the lives failed by over-leading; forsooth to them sudden and unhoped dread overcame.]
