Sirach 40:12-14

Injustice Will Not Prosper
12 All bribery and injustice will be blotted out,
but good faith will last forever.
13 The wealth of the unjust will dry up like a river
and crash like a loud clap of thunder in a storm.(A)
14 As a generous person has cause to rejoice,
so lawbreakers will utterly fail.
