| 12 | Do not invite death by the error of your life, nor bring on destruction by the works of your hands; | God did not create death. Wis.1.12-16 | |
| 13 | because God did not make death, and he does not delight in the death of the living. | ||
| 14 | For he created all things that they might exist, and the generative forces of the world are wholesome, and there is no destructive poison in them; and the dominion of Hades is not on earth. | ||
| 15 | For righteousness is immortal. | ||
| 16 | But ungodly men by their words and deeds summoned death; considering him a friend, they pined away, and they made a covenant with him, because they are fit to belong to his party. | ||
