Ecclesiasticus 16:11 Context
9Hee pitied not the people of perdition, who were taken away in their sinnes. 10Nor the sixe hundreth thousand footmen, who were gathered together in the hardnesse of their hearts. 11And if there be one stiffe-necked among the people, it is marueile, if he escape vnpunished; for mercy and wrath are with him, hee is mighty to forgiue, and to powre out displeasure. 12As his mercy is great, so is his correction also: he iudgeth a man according to his workes. 13The sinner shall not escape with his spoiles, and the patience of the godly shall not be frustrate.
