Sirach 27:30-32

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

³⁰ A mischievous counsel shall be rolled back upon the author, and he shall not know from whence it cometh to him.

³¹ Mockery and reproach are of the proud, and vengeance as a lion shall lie in wait for him.

³² They shall perish in a snare that are delighted with the fall of the just: and sorrow shall consume them before they die.
