Sirach 39:28 CPDV

²⁶  Let it not be said: 'What is this?' or, 'What is that?' For all things will be sought in their time.

²⁷  His blessing has overflowed like a river.

²⁸  In the same way that a flood inundates the dry land, so also will his wrath inherit the peoples that have not sought him.

²⁹  In the same way that he turned the waters into dry land, and made the earth dry, and just as his ways have been directed for their journey, so also will sinners stumble before his wrath.

³⁰  From the beginning, good things were created for those who are good, and similarly, good and evil things are for those who are wicked.
