Wisdom 1:6-10 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

6. For the spirit of wisdom is benevolent, and will not release the evil speaker from his talk, because God is a witness of his temperament, and a true examiner of his heart, and an auditor of his words.

7. For the spirit of the Lord has filled the world, and he who contains all things, retains knowledge of every voice.

8. Therefore, he who speaks unjust things cannot escape notice, nor will the chastising judgment pass him by.

9. For inquiry will be made into the thoughts of the impious, his conversation also will reach the hearing of God, to the chastising of his iniquities.

10. For the zealous ear hears all things, and the disturbance of complaining will not be hidden.
