Wisdom 5:7-9
New Catholic Bible
7 We had our fill of traversing the paths of lawlessness and ruin
and wandered across trackless deserts,
but of the way of the Lord we have been ignorant.
8 Of what avail has arrogance been to us?
What advantage have we received from our vaunted wealth?
9 “All these things have passed like a shadow,
much like a fleeting notice;
