Sirach 39:26-28
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
26 The basic necessities of human life
are water and fire and iron and salt
and wheat flour and milk and honey,
the blood of the grape and oil and clothing.
27 All these are good for the godly,
but for sinners they turn into evils.
28 ‘There are winds created for vengeance,
and in their anger they can dislodge mountains;[a]
on the day of reckoning they will pour out their strength
and calm the anger of their Maker.
