Wisdom 11:23-25
New Catholic Bible
23 Yet you are merciful to all, for you can do all things,
and you overlook men’s sins so that they may repent.
24 For you love everything that exists
and abhor nothing that you have created,
since you would not have fashioned anything that you hated.[a]
25 How could anything have continued to exist unless you had willed it,
or be preserved if it had not been called forth by you?
