Wisdom of Solomon 17:9

9 For though no terrible thing disturbed them: yet being scared with the passing by of beasts, and hissing of serpents, they died for fear and denying that they saw the air, which could by no means be avoided.

Wisdom of Solomon 17:9 — New Revised Standard Version: Updated Edition (NRSVue)

9 For even if nothing disturbing frightened them,

yet, scared by the passing of wild animals and the hissing of snakes

10 they perished in trembling fear,

refusing to look even at the air, though it nowhere could be avoided.
