Wisdom 12:10-12

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

¹⁰ But judging them little by little you gave them an opportunity to repent,
though you were not unaware that their origin^[a] was evil
and their wickedness inborn,
and that their way of thinking would never change.
¹¹ For they were an accursed race from the beginning,
and it was not through fear of anyone that you left them unpunished for their sins.

¹² For who will say, ‘What have you done?’
or will resist your judgement?
Who will accuse you for the destruction of nations that you made?
Or who will come before you to plead as an advocate for the unrighteous?
