Wisdom of Solomon 12:10-12

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

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.^(A)
11 For their offspring were accursed from the beginning,
and it was not through fear of anyone that you left them unpunished for their sins.^(B)

¹² For who will say, “What have you done?”
or will resist your judgment?
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?^(C)
