Wisdom of Solomon 5:21–23

Shafts of lightning shall fly with true aim,

And from the clouds, as from a well drawn bow, shall they leap to the mark.

And as from an engine of war shall be hurled hailstones full of wrath;

The water of the sea shall rage against them,

And rivers shall sternly overwhelm them;

A mighty blast shall encounter them,

And as a tempest shall it winnow them away:

So shall lawlessness make all the land desolate,

And their evil-doing shall overturn the thrones of princes.
