7 For instead of a fountain, even everlasting in flow, you gave human blood to the unjust,
8 and while they would be crushed into disgrace because of the murdering of infants, you unexpectedly gave your own abundant water,
9 revealing through the thirst, which occurred at that time, how you would exalt your own and would kill their adversaries.
10 For when they were being tested, and even when receiving merciful correction, they knew in what way, when your wrath judged the impious, they would suffer torments.
11 For these, advising like a father, you approved; but the others, interrogating like a severe king, you condemned.
12 For whether absent or present, they were tortured alike.
13 For they had received double: weariness and groaning in the remembrance of things past.
