26 Basic to all the necessities of human life
    are water, fire, iron, salt,
    fine flour, milk, honey,
    wine,[a] oil, and clothing.
27 For the godly,
all these things are for good,
    but for sinners, they will turn into evil.

28 There are winds that have been created

    and they whip with strength
    in their wrath.
At the moment of consummation,
they will pour out their strength,
    and they will calm the wrath
    of their maker.
