Wisdom of Solomon

Wisdom of Solomon 18:1

ΤΟΙΣ δὲ ὁσίοις σου μέγιστον ἦν φῶς· ὧν φωνὴν μὲν ἀκούοντες, μορφὴν δὲ οὐχ ὁρῶντες, ὅτι μὲν οὐ κἀκεῖνοι ἐπεπόνθεισαν, ἐμακάριζον,
King James Version (KJV)

Nevertheless thy saints had a very great light, whose voice they hearing, and not seeing their shape, because they also had not suffered the same things, they counted them happy.

Modern English

But your holy ones had a very great light; and while the Egyptians heard their voices without seeing their forms, since they too had not suffered the same things, they counted them fortunate.
