Wisdom of Solomon

Wisdom of Solomon 17:11

δειλὸν γὰρ ἰδίως πονηρία μαρτυρεῖ καταδικαζομένη, ἀεὶ δὲ προσείληφε τὰ χαλεπὰ συνεχομένη τῇ συνειδήσει·
King James Version (KJV)

For wickedness, condemned by her own witness, is very timorous, and being pressed with conscience, always forecasteth grievous things.

Modern English

For wickedness, condemned by its own inner witness, is always fearful, and burdened by a guilty conscience it constantly imagines the worst.
