Sirach 45:21-23

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²¹ And he gave him power in his commandments, in the covenants of his judgments, that he should teach Jacob his testimonies, and give light to Israel in his law.

²² And strangers stood up against him, and through envy the men that were with Dathan and Abiron, compassed him about in the wilderness, and the congregation of Core in their wrath.

²³ The Lord God saw and it pleased him not, and they were consumed in his wrathful indignation.
