Wisdom of Ben Sira 39:25-27
New Catholic Bible
25 From the beginning good things were created for the upright,
but also bad things for sinners.
26 The basic necessities of human life
are water, fire, iron, salt,
wheat flour, milk, and honey,
the juice of the grape, oil, and clothing.
27 All these are good for those who are good,
but for the wicked they turn out to be bad.
