The Wisdom of Solomon · Restored Names Edition · first paragraph
1As for the ungodly, wrath came upon them without mercy to the end: for he knew before what they would do;
2How that having given them leave to depart, and sent them hastily away, they would repent and pursue them.
3For while they were yet mourning and making lamentation at the graves of the dead, they added another foolish device, and pursued them as fugitives, whom they had intreated to be gone.
