Sirach 27:26-28
Revised Standard Version
26 He who digs a pit will fall into it,
and he who sets a snare will be caught in it.
27 If a man does evil, it will roll back upon him,
and he will not know where it came from.
28 Mockery and abuse issue from the proud man,[a]
but vengeance lies in wait for him like a lion.
