Wisdom of Solomon

Wisdom of Solomon 11:10

τούτους μὲν γὰρ ὡς πατὴρ νουθετῶν ἐδοκίμασας, ἐκείνους δὲ ὡς ἀπότομος βασιλεὺς καταδικάζων ἐξήτασας.
King James Version (KJV)

For these thou didst admonish and try, as a father: but the other, as a severe king, thou didst condemn and punish.

Modern English

These you admonished and tested like a father, but the others you condemned and punished like a stern king.
