Wisdom 2:10-12

Revised Standard Version

¹⁰Let us oppress the righteous poor man;
let us not spare the widow
nor regard the gray hairs of the aged.
¹¹But let our might be our law of right,
for what is weak proves itself to be useless.

¹²“Let us lie in wait for the righteous man,
because he is inconvenient to us and opposes our actions;
he reproaches us for sins against the law,
and accuses us of sins against our training.
