Wisdom of Solomon

Wisdom of Solomon 5:12

ἢ ὡς βέλους βληθέντος ἐπὶ σκοπόν, τμηθεὶς ὁ ἀὴρ εὐθέως εἰς ἑαυτὸν ἀνελύθη ὡς ἀγνοῆσαι τὴν δίοδον αὐτοῦ.
King James Version (KJV)

Or like as when an arrow is shot at a mark, it parteth the air, which immediately cometh together again, so that a man cannot know where it went through:

Modern English

or like an arrow shot at a target, splitting the air, which closes again at once so that no one can tell where it passed through.
