Sirach 16:6-8

Common English Bible

⁶ A fire will be kindled
in an assembly of sinners,
    and wrath will flash forth
    in a disobedient nation.
⁷ The Lord didn’t seek reconciliation
with the ancient giants^[a]
    who rebelled in their might.
⁸ He didn’t spare Lot’s neighbors,
    whom he detested
    because of their arrogance.
