13. She did not abandon a righteous man when he was sold,but rescued him from sin.
14. She went down with him into the dungeon,and did not desert him in his bonds,Until she brought him the scepter of royaltyand authority over his oppressors,Proved false those who had defamed him,and gave him eternal glory.
15. The holy people and their blameless descendants—it was shewho rescued them from the nation that oppressed them.
16. She entered the soul of the Lord’s servant,and withstood fearsome kings with signs and wonders;
17. she gave the holy ones the reward of their labors,Conducted them by a wondrous road,became a shelter for them by daya starry flame by night.
18. She took them across the Red Seaand brought them through the deep waters.
19. Their enemies she overwhelmed,and churned them up from the bottom of the depths.
20. Therefore the righteous despoiled the wicked;and they sang of your holy name, Lord,and praised in unison your conquering hand,
21. Because Wisdom opened the mouths of the mute,and gave ready speech to infants.
