Sirach 40:11-13
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
11 All that is of earth returns to earth,
and what is from above returns above.[a]
Injustice Will Not Prosper
12 All bribery and injustice will be blotted out,
but good faith will last for ever.
13 The wealth of the unjust will dry up like a river,
and crash like a loud clap of thunder in a storm.
