Sirach 39:29-31
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
29 Fire and hail and famine and pestilence—
all these have been created for vengeance;(A)
30 the fangs of wild animals and scorpions and vipers
and the sword that punishes the ungodly with destruction.(B)
31 They take delight in doing his bidding,
always ready for his service on earth,
and when their time comes they never disobey his command.”(C)
