Sirach 39:29-31

Revised Standard Version

²⁹ Fire and hail and famine and pestilence,
    all these have been created for vengeance;
³⁰ the teeth of wild beasts, and scorpions and vipers,
    and the sword that punishes the ungodly with destruction;
³¹ they will rejoice in his commands,
    and be made ready on earth for their service,
    and when their times come they will not transgress his word.
