Wisdom 11:6-9 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

6. yet though water, when they were in need, it turned out well for them.

7. For instead of a fountain, even everlasting in flow, you gave human blood to the unjust,

8. and while they would be crushed into disgrace because of the murdering of infants, you unexpectedly gave your own abundant water,

9. revealing through the thirst, which occurred at that time, how you would exalt your own and would kill their adversaries.
