Wisdom of Solomon

Wisdom of Solomon 18:6

ἐκείνη ἡ νὺξ προεγνώσθη πατράσιν ἡμῶν, ἵνα ἀσφαλῶς εἰδότες οἷς ἐπίστευσαν ὅρκοις ἐπευθυμήσωσι.
King James Version (KJV)

Of that night were our fathers certified afore, that assuredly knowing unto what oaths they had given credence, they might afterwards be of good cheer.

Modern English

Our ancestors were given advance notice of that night, so that, knowing for certain what oaths they had trusted, they could take courage afterward.
