Wisdom of Solomon 5:21–23

²¹Shafts of lightning will fly with true aim

and will leap from the clouds to the target, as from a well-drawn bow,^*

²²and hailstones full of wrath will be hurled as from a catapult;

the water of the sea will rage against them,

and rivers will relentlessly overwhelm them;^*

²³a mighty wind will rise against them,

and like a tempest it will winnow them away.

Lawlessness will lay waste the whole earth,

and evildoing will overturn the thrones of rulers.^*
