Wisdom of Solomon 17:6-8
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
6 Nothing was shining through to them
except a dreadful, self-kindled fire,
and in terror they deemed the things that they saw
to be worse than that unseen appearance.(A)
7 The delusions of their magic art lay humbled,
and their boasted wisdom was scornfully rebuked.(B)
8 For those who promised to drive off the fears and disorders of a sick soul
were sick themselves with ridiculous fear.
