Sirach 43:18-20

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁸ The noise of his thunder shall strike the earth, so doth the northern storm, and the whirlwind:

¹⁹ And as the birds lighting upon the earth, he scattereth snow, and the falling thereof, is as the coming down of locusts.

²⁰ The eye admireth at the beauty of the whiteness thereof, and the heart is astonished at the shower thereof.
