Wisdom 1:14
New Catholic Bible
14 He created all things so that they might have existence,
and the creatures of the world engender life.
There is no deadly poison in any of them,
and the domain of the netherworld[a] is not on the earth,
Footnotes
- Wisdom 1:14 Netherworld: this word signifies here more than simply the place where the dead are shut up without hope or future. Rather, it constitutes the hostile power of death, which seeks to disfigure the work of God. It represents the whole hideous weight of evil that fights against what God wills for the world and for human beings.
