Wisdom 11

KING JAMES BIBLE	Peshitta
1 She prospered their works in the hand of the holy prophet.	1 ܘܬܪܨܬ ܥܒ̈ܕܝܗܘܢ ܒܐܝܕܗ ܕܢܒܝܐ ܩܕܝܫܐ
2 They went through the wilderness that was not inhabited, and pitched tents in places where there lay no way.	2 ܘܗܠܟܘ ܒܡܕܒܪܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܬܝܬܒ ܘܐܝܟܐ ܕܠܐ ܕܪܝܫ ܢܩܫܘ ܡܫ̈ܟܢܝܗܘܢ
3 They stood against their enemies, and were avenged of their adversaries.	3 ܩܡܘ ܒܩܪܒܐ ܘܡܚܘ ܠܣ̈ܢܐܝܗܘܢ
4 When they were thirsty, they called upon thee, and water was given them out of the flinty rock, and their thirst was quenched out of the hard stone.	4 ܘܨܗܝܘ ܥܡܟ ܘܠܟ ܩܪܘ ܘܡܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܕܛܪܢܐ ܝܗܒܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܡ̈ܝܐ ܘܐܣܝܘܬܐ ܠܨܗܝܗܘܢ ܡܢ ܟܐܦܐ ܫܪܝܪܬܐ
5 For by what things their enemies were punished, by the same they in their need were benefited.	5 ܒܕܐܬܢܩܡܘ ܓܝܪ ܡܢ ܒ̈ܥܠܕܒܒܝܗܘܢ ܗܢܘܢ ܚܣܪܘ ܘܐܬܝܗܒ ܠܗܘܢ
6 For instead of of a perpetual running river troubled with foul blood,	6 ܚܠܦ ܡܒܘܥܐ ܕܢܗܪܐ ܕܡܫܬܦܥ ܒܕܡܐ ܕܡ̈ܝܐ ܣܘ̈ܡܩܐ
7 For a manifest reproof of that commandment, whereby the infants were slain, thou gavest unto them abundance of water by a means which they hoped not for:	7 ܠܟܘܘܢܐ ܕܛ̈ܠܝܐ ܕܐܬܩܛܠܘ ܒܦܘܩܕܢܐ ܘܝܗܒܬ ܠܗܘܢ ܡ̈ܝܐ ܒܚ̈ܝܐ ܛܒ̈ܐ ܕܠܐ ܓܡܪܝܢ
8 Declaring by that thirst then how thou hadst punished their adversaries.	8 ܡܛܠ ܗܢܐ ܚܘܝܬ ܕܒܨܗܝܐ ܗܘ ܥܒܕܬ ܦܘܪܥܢܐ ܡܢ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܕܠܩܘܒܠܐ ܐܢܘܢ
9 For when they were tried albeit but in mercy chastised, they knew how the ungodly were judged in wrath and tormented, thirsting in another manner than the just.	9 ܟܕ ܐܬܒܩܝܘ ܘܒܪ̈ܚܡܐ ܪܕܝܬ ܘܕܒܪܬ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܝܕܥܘ ܕܒܪܘܓܙܐ ܡܬܢܓܕܝܢ ܘܡܨܛܥܪܝܢ ܪ̈ܫܝܥܐ
10 For these thou didst admonish and try, as a father: but the other, as a severe king, thou didst condemn and punish.	10 ܠܗܠܝܢ ܕܝܢ ܐܒܐ ܓܒܝܬ ܘܒܝܐܬ ܘܒܕܩܬ ܘܠܗܢܘܢ ܐܝܟ ܡ̇ܠܟܐ ܙܥܝܦܐ ܩܛܠܬ ܘܚܝܒܬ
11 Whether they were absent or present, they were vexed alike.	11 ܠܪ̈ܚܝܩܐ ܘܠܩܪ̈ܝܒܐ ܫܚܩܬ ܐܢܘܢ
12 For a double grief came upon them, and a groaning for the remembrance of things past.	12 ܘܥܩܬܐ ܥܦܝܦܬܐ ܢܣܒܬ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܬܐ̈ܢܚܬܐ ܕܕܘܟܪܢܐ ܥܠ ܐܝܠܝܢ ܕܥܒܪܘ
13 For when they heard by their own punishments the other to be benefited, they had some feeling of the Lord.	13 ܡܛܠ ܕܫܡܥܘ ܦܘܪܥܢܐ ܕܢܦܫܗܘܢ ܕܟܕ ܛܐܒ ܠܗܘܢ ܠܐ ܝܕܥܘ ܠܡܪܝܐ
14 For whom they respected with scorn, when he was long before thrown out at the casting forth of the infants, him in the end, when they saw what came to pass, they admired.	14 ܐܠܐ ܡܡܝܩܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܒܡܕܡ ܕܓܕܫ ܠܗܘܢ ܘܒܫܘܠܡܐ ܕܡܦܩܬܗܘܢ ܬܡܝܗܝܢ ܗܘܘ ܘܓܥܬܗܘܢ ܠܐ ܗܘܬ ܐܝܟ ܕܙܕܝܩ̈ܐ
15 But for the foolish devices of their wickedness, wherewith being deceived they worshipped serpents void of reason, and vile beasts, thou didst send a multitude of unreasonable beasts upon them for vengeance;	15 ܐܠܐ ܐܝܟ ܡܚܫ̈ܒܬܗܘܢ ܕܠܝܬ ܗܘܐ ܒܗܝܢ ܣܘܟܠܐ ܗܟܢܐ ܗܘܐ ܛܠܘܡܝܗܘܢ ܡܛܠ ܕܗܢܘܢ ܛܥܘ ܘܫܡܫܘ ܠܪܚܫܐ ܘܠܚ̈ܝܘܬܐ ܕܠܐ ܡܡ̈ܠܠܢ ܘܐܢܬ ܫܕܪܬ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܒܨܥܪܐ ܚ̈ܝܘܬܐ ܣܓ̈ܝܐܬܐ ܕܠܐ ܡ̈ܡܠܠܢ ܠܦܘܪܥܢܘܬܐ
16 That they might know, that wherewithal a man sinneth, by the same also shall he be punished.	16 ܕܢܗܘܘܢ ܝܕܥܝܢ ܕܒܡܕܡ ܕܡܣܟܠ ܐܢܫ ܒܗ ܡܬܕܝܢ ܘܡܬܦܪܥ
17 For thy Almighty hand, that made the world of matter without form, wanted not means to send among them a multitude of bears or fierce lions,	17 ܠܐ ܗܘܬ ܓܝܪ ܚܣܝܪܐ ܠܘܬܟ ܚܝܠܬܢܘܬܐ ܗܕܐ ܕܒܪܝܬ ܥܠܡܐ ܡܢ ܗܘܠܐ ܕܠܐ ܝܕܝܥܐ ܡܨܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܓܝܪ ܕܬܫܕܪ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ ܕܐ̈ܒܝܢ ܣܓ̈ܝܐܝܢ
18 Or unknown wild beasts, full of rage, newly created, breathing out either a fiery vapour, or filthy scents of scattered smoke, or shooting horrible sparkles out of their eyes:	18 ܐܘ ܚܡܬܐ ܕܐܪ̈ܝܘܬܐ ܐܘ ܒܠܨܘܨ̈ܝܬܐ ܕܚܝܠܐ ܕܒܪ̈ܩܐ ܐܘ ܚܡܬܐ ܕܚܝ̈ܘܬܐ ܣܓܝܐ̈ܬܐ ܕܠܐ ܝܕܝ̈ܥܢ ܐܘ ܢܘܪܐ ܕܢܦܚܐ ܘܐܟܠܐ ܐܘ ܚܝܠܐ ܕܬܢܢܐ ܕܬܐܢ ܐܘ ܚܝܠܐ ܕܠܨܝ̈ܬܐ ܕܒܪ̈ܩܐ
19 Whereof not only the harm might dispatch them at once, but also the terrible sight utterly destroy them.	19 ܗܠܝܢ ܕܠܐ ܗܘܐ ܠܡܚܒܠܘܬܗܘܢ ܡܨܝܢ ܒܠܚܘܕ ܐܠܐ ܕܐܦ ܚܙܘܗܝܢ ܡܫܟܚ ܠܡܚܒܠܘ ܐܢܘܢ
20 Yea, and without these might they have fallen down with one blast, being persecuted of vengeance, and scattered abroad through the breath of thy power: but thou hast ordered all things in measure and number and weight.	20 ܘܣܛܪ ܡܢ ܗܠܝܢ ܟܠܗܝܢ ܡܫܟܚ ܗܘܝܬ ܕܒܚܕܐ ܪܘܚ ܬܣܝܦ ܐܢܘܢ ܘܬܘܒܕ ܘܢܬܪܕܦܘܢ ܡܢ ܩܕܡ ܦܘܪܥܢܘܬܟ ܘܬܕܪܐ ܐܢܘܢ ܡܢ ܩܕܡ ܐ̈ܦܐ ܕܪܘܚܟ ܐܠܐ ܟܠ ܡܕܡ ܒܟܝܠܐ ܡܟܝܢܐ ܘܒܛܟܣܐ ܘܒܡܬܩܠܐ ܐܝܬܝܬ ܥܠܝܗܘܢ
21 For thou canst shew thy great strength at all times when thou wilt; and who may withstand the power of thine arm?	21 ܡܛܠ ܕܪ̈ܘܪܒܬܐ ܒܟܠ ܙܒܢ ܩܝ̈ܡܢ ܩܕܡܝܟ ܘܩܕܡ ܕܪܥܐ ܕܝܡܝܢܟ ܡܢܘ ܡܫܟܚ ܠܡܩܡ
22 For the whole world before thee is as a little grain of the balance, yea, as a drop of the morning dew that falleth down upon the earth.	22 ܕܐܝܟ ܪܦܦ ܥܝܢܐ ܗܝ ܟܠܗ̇ ܓܒܝܠܬܐ ܕܥܠܡܐ ܩܕܡܝܟ ܘܐܝܟ ܡ̈ܝܐ ܕܛܠܐ ܕܒܨܦܪܐ ܢܚܬ ܥܠ ܐܪܥܐ
23 But thou hast mercy upon all; for thou canst do all things, and winkest at the sins of men, because they should amend.	23 ܡܪܚܡ ܐܢܬ ܥܠ ܟܠ ܕܠܟܠ ܡܨܠܚ ܐܢܬ ܘܡܥܒܪ ܐܢܬ ܣ̈ܟܠܘܬܗܘܢ ܕܒܢ̈ܝ ܐܢܫܐ ܟܕ ܢܬܘܒܘܢ
24 For thou lovest all the things that are, and abhorrest nothing which thou hast made: for never wouldest thou have made any thing, if thou hadst hated it.	24 ܪܚܡ ܐܢܬ ܠܟܠ ܘܡܕܡ ܠܐ ܡܣܠܐ ܐܢܬ ܡܢ ܡܕܡ ܕܥܒܕܬ ܡܛܠ ܕܐܠܘ ܣܢܐ ܗܘܝܬ ܡܕܡ ܠܐ ܥܒܕ ܗܘܝܬ ܠܗ
25 And how could any thing have endured, if it had not been thy will? or been preserved, if not called by thee?	25 ܐܝܟܢܐ ܓܝܪ ܩܐܡ ܗܘܐ ܡܕܡ ܐܠܘ ܠܐ ܕܐܢܬ ܨܒܝܬ ܐܘ ܐܝܟܢܐ ܡܬܢܛܪ ܗܘܐ ܡܕܡ ܐܠܘ ܠܐ ܕܐܢܬ ܦܩܕܬ
26 But thou sparest all: for they are thine, O Lord, thou lover of souls.	26 ܚܐܣ ܐܢܬ ܥܠ ܟܘܠ ܕܕܝܠܟ ܗܘ ܟܠ ܡܪܝܐ ܪܚܡ ܐܢܬ ܗܘ ܢܦܫ̈ܬܐ
