The Wisdom of Solomon 16:1-4

[1] Therefore those men were deservedly punished 
through such creatures, 
and were tormented by a multitude of animals. 
[2] Instead of this punishment you did show 
kindness to your people, 
and you did prepare quails to eat, 
a delicacy to satisfy the desire of appetite; 
[3] in order that those men, when they desired food,
might lose the least remnant of appetite
because of the odious creatures sent to them, 
while your people, after suffering want a short time, 
might partake of delicacies. 
[4] For it was necessary that upon those oppressors 
inexorable want should come, 
while to these it was merely shown how their 
enemies were being tormented.
