Wisdom of Solomon 11:17 Context
15But for the foolish deuises of their wickednesse, wherewith being deceiued, they worshipped serpents voyd of reason, and vile beasts: thou didst send a multitude of vnreasonable beasts vpon them for vengeance, 16That they might knowe that wherewithall a man sinneth, by the same also shall he be punished. 17For thy Almighty hand that made the world of matter without forme, wanted not meanes to send among them a multitude of Beares, or fierce Lyons, 18Or vnknowen wild beasts full of rage newly created, breathing out either a fiery vapour, or filthy sents of scattered smoake, or shooting horrible sparkles out of their eyes: 19Whereof not onely the harme might dispatch them at once: but also the terrible sight vtterly destroy them.
