Sirach 16:10-12

Common English Bible

¹⁰ So also he showed no mercy
to the six hundred thousand
foot soldiers
    who gathered together
    in their stubbornness.^[a]

¹¹ Even if there was one
stiff-necked person,
    it would be amazing
    if that one would go unpunished,
    because mercy and wrath are with him,
    the Lord who reconciles
    and who pours out wrath.
¹² His scrutiny is as severe
as his mercy is abundant;
    he will judge people
    according to their deeds.
