Wisdom 18:23-25

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²³ For when they were now fallen down dead by heaps one upon another, he stood between and stayed the assault, and cut off the way to the living.

²⁴ For in the priestly robe which he wore, was the whole world: and in the four rows of the stones the glory of the fathers was graven, and thy majesty was written upon the diadem of his head.

²⁵ And to these the destroyer gave place, and was afraid of them: for the proof only of wrath was enough.
