It is time to guess K now. K!
THE / WR _ T H / OF / _ _ N / WORKET H / NOT / THE/ RIGHTEOUSNESS/ OF/ GOD
'kay.
Two vowels and a consonant left.
I would like to pick A now. 
THE / WRATH / OF / _ AN / WORKETH / NOT / THE/ RIGHTEOUSNESS/ OF/ GOD
almost there…
I would like to guess M, please. 
James 1:20, KJV - “The wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.”
So endeth the morning’s sermon.
Take it away, Placebo!
Thank you. 
The new sentence is a bit more mundane:
_ _ / _ _ _ _ _ /_ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ / _ _ _ _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ .
Is there an “N”?
Yes, there is an N in this sentence.
_ _ / _ _ _ _ _ /_ _ _ _ / _ _ _ _ / _ / _ _ N _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ .
Eeee?
Mayhaps a “T”?
Thank you for your guesses. 
There is an E but unfortunately, there are no T’s in this sentence.
Strike one.
_ _ / _ _ _ _ _ /_ _ _ _ / _ _ _ E / _ / _ _ N _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ .
Guess an “A” then.
There is an A here, of course. 
_ _ / _ _ _ _ _ /_ _ _ _ / _ _ _ E / A / _ _ N _ _ / _ _ / _ _ _ _ _ .
O dear (and I prefer the underscores, but I think the pipes may be better for spaces)
This?
_ _ | _ _ _ _ _ | _ _ _ _ | _ _ _ E | A | _ _ N _ _ | _ _ | _ _ _ _ _ .
Yes, that’s the most “readable” so far. But was “O” a strike, or did you just not fill it in?
Mind you, I’m an old unix programmer, I speak pipes!
I’d like to see an I, if you please.
